A spray drier for plant draws
Technical Field
The utility model belongs to the technical equipment field is drawed to the plant, especially relates to a spray drier for plant draws.
Background
The plant extract is a product formed by taking plants as raw materials, directionally obtaining and concentrating one or more active ingredients in the plants through a physical and chemical extraction and separation process according to the requirements of the application of an extracted final product without changing the structures of the active ingredients, and can be divided into vegetable oil, extract, powder, crystalline lens and the like according to different properties.
Spray drying is a method for applying systematic technology to material drying. After the thin material is atomized in the drying chamber, the water content is quickly vaporized in the contact of the thin material and hot air, and then the dried product is obtained. The method can directly dry the solution or emulsion into powder or granular product, and can omit the procedures of evaporation, pulverization, etc.
