Safe, small-scale spray drying for challenging applications
We believe we can offer unrivalled technology and engineering expertise, process understanding and real world insight, whatever your spray drying project or feed type. We also support the absolute need for personnel, plant and process safety, and our range of MOBILE MINOR® systems includes pressure shock resistant (PSR) and closed cycle setups, for spray drying either aqueous or organic solvent-based feeds, using air or inert gas.
MOBILE MINOR®, sulu ve/veya solvent bazlı besleme stokları dahil olmak üzere farklı gereksinimlere yanıt vermek için tasarlanan farklı versiyonlara sahiptir. Farklı atomizasyon teknikleri farklı damlacık boyutları ve kurutma özellikleri sağladığından, MOBILE MINOR® üç farklı atomizasyon tekniğine sahiptir:
- Döner atomizasyon
- Eş-yönlü akımlı iki-akışkan nozülü ile atomizasyon
- Çeşme modunda iki-akışkan nozülü ile atomizasyon
Ayrıca toz toplama, patlama koruması, temizlik, veri kaydı ve diğer teknik özellikler için çeşitli opsiyonlar mevcuttur.

GEA İçgörüleri
The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Makineden fazlası: Daha iyi bir tesis performansının kilidini açar
Verimli bir makine, otomatik olarak verimli bir fabrika anlamına gelmez. Gerçek iyileştirme, genellikle münferit ekipmanların ötesine bakıp proseslerin, enerji sistemlerinin ve işletme kararlarının birbirlerini nasıl etkilediğini anlamakla başlar. Bu, normalde gözden kaçırılabilecek fırsatları ortaya çıkarmak üzere tasarlanmış bütünsel bir yaklaşımdır.
Bir vana, yiyecek ve içeceklerin üretilme yöntemini nasıl yeniden şekillendiriyor?
Yiyecek ve içecek tesislerinde, vanalar genellikle tazyikli hava kullanılarak çalıştırılır. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology, kapalı ve dijital olarak kontrol edilen bir devre içinde vanaları su yardımıyla hareket ettirir. Sonuç, tam olarak yerinde tutulabilen ve hassas ayarlanan adımlarla yönlendirilebilen bir vanadır. Bu, daha az enerji kullanımı ve daha fazla kontrol sağlar.
