Key applications for the FILTERMAT®

Filtermat spray drying whey permeate

Whey UF-permeate consists primarily of lactose, which in its amorphous state attracts water from its surroundings. By retaining the product on the band, the FILTERMAT® prevents lumping and supports uniform lactose crystallization into a stable, non-hygroscopic state.

Fat filled whey cheese powder filtermat

The FILTERMAT® can reproducibly process high fat dairy products into free-flowing, agglomerated powders with the desired properties, for many different applications.

Non dairy creamer filtermat spray drying

The FILTERMAT® allows you to reliably and efficiently spray dry non-dairy products that have a fat content of more than 60%.

Tomatoes-spray-drying-filtermat

The FILTERMAT® can be an ideal solution for drying a wide range of fruits and vegetables, and can process products such as orange powders with less carrier, or tomato powder with no filler, to give you higher value products with a higher concentration of product relative to filler/carrier, and commonly a more natural color.

Pet food filtermat spray dryer

GEA FILTERMAT® systems are used to reliably and efficiently spray dry hydrolyzed proteins and flavors, including fish and meat products, palatants and other pet food ingredients. In many cases you can use less carrier and better control Maillard reaction, to generate flavor products with a higher fat content than you could achieve using a traditional spray dryer.

algae

Conventional hot air spray dryers may not be the best option for sensitive biomolecules such as fat-soluble vitamins, or lysed algae and yeast cells. The FILTERMAT® spray drying process can help to maintain product integrity and properties, and reduce the need for carriers, to give you a more concentrated, uniform and higher value product.

Key applications

Food ingredients

1. Whey Permeate

Whey UF-permeate consists primarily of lactose, which in its amorphous state attracts water from its surroundings. By retaining the product on the band, the FILTERMAT® prevents lumping and supports uniform lactose crystallization into a stable, non-hygroscopic state.

2. Fat-filled whey, cream and cheese powder

The FILTERMAT® can reproducibly process high fat dairy products into free-flowing, agglomerated powders with the desired properties, for many different applications.  

Non-dairy creamer

3. Non-dairy creamers and toppings

The FILTERMAT® allows you to reliably and efficiently spray dry non-dairy products that have a fat content of more than 60%.

4. Fruits and vegetables

  The FILTERMAT® can be an ideal solution for drying a wide range of fruits and vegetables, and can process products such as orange powders with less carrier, or tomato powder with no filler, to give you higher value products with a higher concentration of product relative to filler/carrier, and commonly a more natural color.

5. Savory flavors, hydrolyzed proteins and palatants

  GEA FILTERMAT® systems are used to reliably and efficiently spray dry hydrolyzed proteins and flavors, including fish and meat products, palatants and other pet food ingredients. In many cases you can use less carrier and better control Maillard reaction, to generate flavor products with a higher fat content than you could achieve using a traditional spray dryer.  

6. Emerging food products, including lysed cells or fat-soluble vitamins

  Conventional hot air spray dryers may not be the best option for sensitive biomolecules such as fat-soluble vitamins, or lysed algae and yeast cells. The FILTERMAT® spray drying process can help to maintain product integrity and properties, and reduce the need for carriers, to give you a more concentrated, uniform and higher value product.
