2. • Introduction
• Spray drying is a well-known method of particle production which consists on the transformation
of a fluid material into dried particles, taking advantage of a gaseous hot drying medium .
• Its first observation is dated 1860 and a primitive spray dryer device was patented by Samuel
Percy in United States in 1872.
• Ever since it was first discovered, the spray-drying technique has been improved concerning its
operational design and applications. In fact, the primordial spray dryer devices lacked process
efficiency and safety.
• After overcoming these issues, spray drying became an atractive method for food industry
purposes, ending up to be used in milk powder production in the 1920s, remaining one of the most
important applications until the current days. Spray-drying evolution was directly influenced by
World War II, where there was an imperative need to reduce the weight and volume of food and
other materials to be carried .
• As a result, spray drying has become an industry benchmark, namely in the dairy products’
fabrication. In the post-war period, the spray-drying method continued progressing, reaching the
pharmaceutical, chemical, ceramic and polymer industries .

5. • It is a method of producing a dry powder from a liquid or slurry by rapidly drying with a hot gas.
Principle
• In spray dryer the liquid is sprayed in small droplets by atomizer in a drying chamber.
• Droplets are sprayed in to stream of hot air.
• So that each droplet dries to a solid particle.
• The feed may either be solution ,suspension or paste .
Construction
It consist –
Drying chamber
Atomizer
Cyclone separator
6.
7. Drying chamber
• It consist large cylindrical body with conical bottom.
• It is made up of stainless steel .
• Diameter of chamber is 2.5 to 9.0 meters.
• Height of chamber is 25 meter or more .
• Tangential air inlet is placed on the roof of chamber .
• Feed inlet on the roof of chamber .
Atomizer
• Feed inlet carrying atomizer is placed on roof .
• Feed is atomized in to small droplet .
8. the type of atomizer is important because it determines: the energy required to form the spray, size and
distribution of the droplets, available heat transfer area, drying rate, droplet speed and trajectory, and final
product size
types:
a.Rotary atomizer (atomization by centrifugal energy)
b.Pressure nozzle (atomization by pressure energy)
c.Two-fluid nozzle (atomization by kinetic energy)
Cyclone separator
• Bottom of dryer is connected to cyclone separator.
9. • Bag filter
• Filtration based on bags is extensively used in the spray-drying process. Herein,
the air streamline containing the dry particles enters the bag filter under pressure
or suction by its hopper and is passed through a fabric, which halts the particles
path .This means that the dry particles are retained on the bag surface while the
clean air passes through it, being expelled from the device. The accumulated
particles on the bag surface are then collected due to pulses of compressed air
injected in counter-current low inside the bags . Bag filters present high operation
efficiency, especially when they are arranged in filtering units with decreasing
fabric pores diameter .
10. • Electrostatic precipitator
• Electrostatic precipitation is a method of particle collection whose principle is based on
electrostatic forces. A high voltage is applied to discharged wires, forming an electric
field between them and the collecting plates that constitute the precipitator .As a result,
the gas around these wires is ionized, being capable of charging the particle content of the
drying air lowing around this area. Due to Columbic forces, the charged particles
converge to the collecting plates and thus the air becomes devoid of dust.
• Electrostatic precipitators are also very efficient but seldom used taking into account the
high equipment costs .Wet scrubbers In a spray-drying process, it is usual to find some
particles escaping in the air stream after the dry collection. Owing to this, it is quite
common to install an additional collecting system after the dry collectors, the wet
scrubbers. These devices are economical and efective alternatives which perform a inal
gas cleaning step, being thus capable of minimizing the particle content or even some
odor intensity before releasing the gas streamline to the atmosphere
11. • Venturi wet scrubbers
• are well studied devices of easy cleaning or maintenance, being therefore one of
the most used equipment in the spray-drying process. They present a converging
section, a throat (narrowest part) and a divergent section (difuser). The inlet air
carrying ine particles enters the scrubber and is mixed up with the scrubbing liquid
(usually water). This mixture lows throughout the converging section, reaching the
throat at high velocity. As a result, a spray of droplets is formed with the dust
particles entrapped inside them (scrubbing liquid could also be injected at the
throat level). Lastly, the luid content is separated from the clean gas, being the
former discharged and the later released into the atmosphere
12. • Working process
• The spray drying process involves four basic stages;
• 1.Atomization of feed in to spray ( formation of fine droplets )
• 2. spray air contact
• 3. drying of droplet
• 4. particle collection (Dry product separation from the exit air.)
• [ the air passes through HEPA ( high efficiency particulate air ) Filter]
13. • 1.Atomization of feed in to spray ( formation of fine droplets )
• Feed pass through feed inlet.
• Feed pass through atomizer and convert in to small droplet .
• Feed is atomized in to small droplet its specific surface area increases many folds .
• So drying takes place at a very fast rate.
• 2. spray air contact
• Spray the hot air in to chamber through air inlet.
• Hot air can flow in to three ways ;
1. Co-current Low,
2. Counter-current Low
3. Mixed Low
14.
15. • 3. drying of droplet
• Heat is transferred to droplets by convection from air
• The moisture from the interior migrates to the surface and evaporation takes place from the
surface.
• The air temperature is so high that migration of moisture from the interior of the droplet cannot
provide the moisture necessary to keep the surface wet.
• So the surface becomes dried quickly and the moisture in the interior produces vapor that expands
the droplet .
• The final product depends on the nature of the surface layer.
• 4. separation and recovery of dried products
• Majority of dried product falls to the base of the chamber where primary separation takes place.
• The particles entrained in the air recovered by any one of the separation equipment like
• Cyclone separator
• Bag filters
• Electrostatic precipators or wet scrubbers
16. • Feed formation liquid droplet hot air surrounds the droplets
• 1. Atomization 2. spray air contact
• droplets are dried in drying chamber
• 3. drying the droplets
• liquid evaporate at faster rate
• product become dry
• 4. recovery of dried product
• dried product separated by cyclone
separator
•

agents, Pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and insecticides, Dyestuffs, pigments,
fertilizers, mineral floatation concentrates, inorganic chemicals, organic chemicals,
spray concentration (purification), milk products, egg products, food and plant
products, fruits, vegetables, carbohydrates and similar products, slaughterhouse
products, fish products and many others.
21. • Pharmaceutical applications
• Many pharmaceutical and biochemical products are spray dried, including
antibiotics, enzymes, vitamins, yeasts, vaccines, and plasma. The spray drying
capacity required for these products ranges from high, in the case of yeasts to low,
as in the case of plasma. Spray drying of most pharmaceutical and biochemical
products is done using two-fluid or pressure nozzle atomizers. Spray drying
systems used for pharmaceutical/biochemical applications include: Open-cycle,
aseptic open-cycle and closed-cycle.
