Application and advantages of spray drying technology in food industry

2023-08-24

            As an important process in the modern food industry, spray drying technology has greatly promoted the advancement of food processing and preservation technology by converting liquid food raw materials into stable powdered form. This article will deeply explore the principles and main application areas of spray drying technology, analyze its significant advantages in the food industry, and indirectly introduce related technical solutions and market advantages.
1.Basic principles of spray drying technology

            Spray drying technology is a processing method that forms powdered solids by spraying liquid food raw materials into tiny droplets, then quickly evaporating the water in a hot air flow. Its basic principles include the following key steps:

  • Liquid spray stage: Liquid food raw materials are sprayed out in the form of tiny droplets through a high-pressure nozzle.
  • Hot air drying stage: These tiny droplets come into contact with the hot air flow, instantly evaporating the water, causing the solid components to quickly solidify into powder.
  • Collection and packaging: The final powder product is collected by a collection device and can be put on the market after packaging.


2.The main applications of spray drying technology in the food industry

            Spray drying technology has a wide range of applications in the food industry, mainly covering the following aspects:

  • Dairy products: Spray drying technology is widely used in the manufacture of milk powder, whey powder and other dairy products. Through this technology, liquid dairy products can be quickly converted into powder form that is easy to store and transport, while maintaining its nutritional content and taste.
  • Seasonings and spices: Liquid concentrates of seasonings and spices can be converted into powders through spray drying for the manufacture of seasonings and instant soups, while increasing their convenience for long-term storage.
  • Fruit and vegetable powder: The concentrated juice of fruits and vegetables is spray-dried into powder for the production of instant beverages, purees and additives, which enhances the portability and stability of the product.
  • Beverages and granules: Spray drying technology enables liquid concentrated juice and beverage bases to be made into powders, which are widely used in the production of instant beverages, granules and beverage bases.

3.Analysis of the advantages of spray drying technology

            Spray drying technology has shown multiple significant advantages in the food industry, including but not limited to:

  1. Maintaining nutrients: Spray drying technology effectively retains nutrients and active substances in food by quickly evaporating water, ensuring the nutritional value of the final product.
  2. Extending shelf life: Due to the low moisture characteristics of powdered food, spray drying technology significantly extends the shelf life of the product and reduces the risks and costs during storage and transportation.
  3. Enhancing stability: Food in powder form is easier to package, store and transport, has higher stability, is not easily affected by moisture, deterioration or damage, and is conducive to the long-term competitiveness of the product in the market.
  4. Improving production efficiency: Spray drying technology is simple to operate and is suitable for large-scale industrial production and small-batch laboratory research, which significantly improves production efficiency and product supply flexibility.
