Spray Drying Nozzles
The spray drying process is used in the production of many powdered foods, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and abrasives.
The basic principle is to spray a fine spray of the liquid product into a hot stream of air that evaporates the water leaving a powder to fall and be collected. The process requires the continuous spraying of liquids at very high pressures. For these demanding spraying conditions Bete produce a range of specialist spray drying nozzles which are detailed in this section.
