Dried to the point – Thermal processes in the fluid bed

/in /by

Fluid bed technologies are ideally suited for carrying out heat and mass transfer processes, which are in demand during drying. Particles can be simultaneously refined and functionalized economically in parallel with drying by means of spray granulation, spray coating or spray agglomeration. The selection of the right drying process is challenging: it depends on the prevailing conditions in each case and requires a holistic approach. (article in German language)

Protecting sensitive substances effectively – Particle design by fluidized bed and spouted bed processes

/in /by

To ensure that sensitive substances such as probiotics, flavors, vitamins or delayed-release active ingredients survive their journey through processing or the digestive tract, they must be functionally protected. Hot melt coating and encapsulation in the fluid bed or spouted bed offer a variety of product design options in this regard. (article in German language)

Protected by a shell – Optimization of active ingredients by encapsulation or coating

/in /by

Sensitive substances such as vitamins, flavors or probiotics must be well packaged to ensure that they reach their point of action safely. To ensure that they can also be released from their protective shell at the right time, fluid bed and spouted bed technologies with microencapsulation and hot melt coating offer two tailor-made finishing processes.

Hot-melt applications for the food and beverage industry – How to safely stabilize vitamins and probiotics

/in , /by

Sensitive substances such as probiotics, vitamins or sustained release dosage forms must be furnished with a functionally protective coating to ensure their safe transport through the intestinal tract. Furthermore, the surface treatment guarantees their release at a well-defined point in time. Hot-melt fluidized bed granulation provides a variety of possibilities for product design.

Customised enzymes for optimal animal feed mixes

/in , /by

Technical processes improve the product properties: Feeds need enzymes that work optimally as well as being temperature-stable and storable. Two methods are particularly suitable for producing easy-to-process granules and pellets from sensitive, liquid enzyme solutions – the fluidised bed and the spouted bed methods. The plant manufacturer Glatt lngenieurtechnik is one of the world’s leading experts in this field and offers feed producers technology and plant expertise from a single source.

Powder production accelerates pulse beat – spray pyrolysis reactor for pigments and catalysts

/in /by

Powder production accelerates pulse beat – spray pyrolysis reactor for pigments and catalysts.
Tailor-made – this stands for unique, high-quality and suitable. The Apptec process developed by Glatt for powder synthesis, on the other hand, leaves little room for chance. With a pulsating hot gas stream, this further development of spray pyrolysis enables unerring particle design for application fields such as catalyst and pigment development.
