The liquid food is generally preconcentrated by evaporation to economically reduce the water content. The concentrate is then introduced as a fine spray or mist into a tower or chamber with heated air. As the small droplets make intimate contact with the heated air, they flash off their moisture, become small particles, and drop to the bottom of the tower, and are removed. The advantages of spray drying include a low heat and short time combination which leads to a better quality product.

The objective of this experiment is to study spray dryers and spray drying operation. In industry, spray drying is used to separate liquid from solid. In a spray dryer, a liquid solution is dispersed into a stream of hot gas in the form of a mist of fine droplets. Moisture is rapidly vaporized from droplets and leaves residue particles of dry solid. These are then separated from the gas stream by the separator. In this experiment, dry milk was used for dry solid. The milk solution was used as liquid feed and the performance of spray dryer is observed.

Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

2. Introduction
Spray drying involves the spraying of a liquid feed
formulation (solutions, suspensions, emulsions) into
the hot drying medium (air/nitrogen)
The droplets formed by the atomization process are
dried through solvent evaporation to form particles
which are collected as dry powder.
Unique drying process: involves particles formation
& drying
2
3. 3
Different design: fines, course particles, agglomerates
or granules can be produce
Drying air is an important factor, affect final product
property by influencing the droplet behavior.
Schematic illustration of spray drying process
4. 4
Different types of spray drying systems
Open cycle systems
Closed cycle systems
Semi-closed cycle systems
Open cycle systems:
Air for drying is drawn from atmosphere & the exhaust
drying air is discharged to atmosphere.
Applied to spray dry aqueous feeds.
Majority of the industry use this system.
5. 5
Closed cycle systems:
System is based on recycling and reusing the gaseous
drying medium (which is usually gas such as nitrogen).
Use to handle flammable solvents, high toxic products and
oxygen sensitive products.
Avoid atmospheric pollution and or complete recovery of
evaporated solvent.
6. 6
Semi-closed cycle systems:
Sub classified as:
Partial recycle mode: recycle up to 60% of the exhaust air.
Self inserting mode
7. 7
Process stages
Spray drying consist of 4 process stages:
o First stage the liquid feed is atomized into a spray of
droplets.
o Second stage involves the spray-air contact, mixing
and droplet/particle flow.
o Third stage combines drying and particle formation.
o Final stage, particle separation from drying air and
dried product discharge.
8. 8
First stage
This stage is also called as atomization stage.
Based on the source of energy utilized in the formation
of droplet these are classified as :
1. Rotary atomizer
2. Pneumatic nozzle atomizer
3. Pressure nozzle atomizer
9. 9
1. Rotary atomizer
Consist of rotating wheel or disk
Source of energy used: centrifugal energy
Liquid feed is introduced centrally
Droplet size: 100 – 200 𝛍m
10. 10
2. Pneumatic nozzle atomizer
Uses compressed air to create high frictional forces
over liquid surfaces.
Causing liquid disintegration to droplets.
Droplet size: 05 – 100 𝛍m
11. 11
3. Pressure nozzle atomizer
• Applies liquid feed under pressure
• Feed is forced to rotate within the nozzle.
• Resulting in the cone-shaped spray pattern emerging from
the orifice of nozzle.
• Droplet size: 30 – 350 𝛍m
12. 12
Second stage
Involves spray-air contact, mixing and droplet
/particles flow
The three basic flow design are as below
a) Co-current flow
b) Counter current flow
c) Mixed flow
13. 13
a) Co-current flow
The atomized feed is sprayed in the same direction as
the flow of hot air through the drying chamber.
The droplet come in contact with the hot drying air
when they are most moist resulting in optimal solvent
evaporation.
Use for heat sensitive
materials such as
protein, enzymes and
peptides.
14. 14
b) Counter current flow
The atomized feed and the heated drying medium moves
in the opposite direction through the drying chamber.
Combines the heat treatment and particle agglomeration
effect.
Resulting in increase powder flow-bility and median
particle size.
Use for thermally stable
products or non-heat-
sensitive products.
15. 15
c) Mixed flow
Combines co-current and counter current flow modes.
Typical fountain type system yields coarse and free
flowing products
Drying chamber of relative small dimensions is
sufficient.
17. 17
Third stage
Drying and particle formation takes place.
Contact between feed droplets and drying air results
in immediate solvent evaporation.
Diffusion of solvent within the droplet maintains
saturated surface conditions.
Resulting in constant drying.
18. 18
Final stage
Particle separation from the drying air and dried
product discharge takes place in the drying chamber
and associate particle collection system.
Cyclone, filter bag and scrubber.
21. 21
Application
1. Directly compressible powder
a. Excipient and co-excipient processed production
Better flow ability and compact ability
a. Improved drug compressibility
Excellent compressibility and absence of capping tendency.
Eg. Acetazolamide
2. Encapsulation
Matrix microcapsules containing drug substance and a
biodegradable polymer are usually prepare by spray drying
technique to obtained controlled drug release formulations
22. 22
2. Increased bioavailability
a. Complex formation: cyclodextrine complex
b. Formation of solid dispersion
4. Dry powder aerosols and heat sensitive materials
Excellent method for the production of dry powder
formulations.
Particle size distribution and residual moisture of
the spray dried product can be easily control.
Example: Bovine serum albumin (BSA)
23. 23
Advantages
1. Specifications of powder quality remains constant through
out the entire drying operation.
2. Spray drying operations is continuous, easy, automatic
control and one operator can handle more than one spray
dryer at a time.
3. Wide range of dryer designs are available. Product
specifications can be readily met.
4. Applicable to both heat sensitive and heat resistance
materials.
5. Feed stock in solution, slurry, emulsions, paste and melt can
be handle.
