Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing a honey powder using a low temperature drying method,

The present invention relates to a method for producing a honey powder using a low temperature drying method, and more particularly, to a method for producing a honey powder by using a low temperature drying method in which a high temperature and a low temperature are added to a stock solution of honey, The present invention relates to a method for producing a honey powder using a low-temperature drying method for producing various types of powder.

Honey which is commonly used is honey (natural honey) which belongs to acacia, honey, etc., and molasses (artificial honey) which belongs to refined molasses and ice molasses, and has been used as medicine and food by collecting honey from a long time ago. The number of honey has become very dear as the number of honey bees has been greatly increased, but honey bees have been developed by collecting honey to artificially cultivate bees.

However, since honey is collected and stored in a liquid phase, problems of storage and distribution due to various physical properties such as various effects of the honey preparation are encountered, which makes it difficult to commercialize honey.

On the other hand, the number of professional farmers who are working only as beekeeping industry is increasing, but since they are not fully supported by the small size and processing technology of honey, they are concentrating only on harvesting and production of honey itself. There is a problem in that it can not be successfully commercialized in a variety of possible forms.

Korean Patent Laid-Open No. 10-2004-0031672 " Method for manufacturing a honey powder and a honey powder food "

The method for producing a honey powder and the method for preparing a honey powder according to the present invention include mixing an additive with a stock solution of a honey and drying the moisture in the mixed composition using a predetermined drying method.

Here, the predetermined drying method is the high temperature drying method, the vacuum drying method, and the freeze drying method. However, the drying method and the drying method used have the following problems.

The high-temperature drying method dries to a high temperature in order to remove the moisture of the composition in which the honey and the non-additive are mixed. Therefore, it is dried at a high temperature for a long time, consumes a lot of energy, the surface is solidified, the inside moisture is not easily dried, and the color of the surface is changed due to drying for a long time.

The freeze vacuum drying method can not produce a small amount because it is produced by adding a large amount of material to make a honey powder once, and it is difficult to popularize it due to high cost. It is dried in a short time at a pressure of 85 Pa ~ Caking occurs in the honey powder produced due to the property of restoring moisture that has exited later.

Spray Dryer Drying method can not increase the content of honey concentrate by spraying 40 ~ 60 wt% of honey stock and 40 ~ 60 wt% of dextrin into the air. Due to the nature of sticky honey, There is a problem of absorbing a lot of moisture.

The present invention has been conceived to solve the problems as described above. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of producing a polyurethane foam by changing atmospheric pressure lower than atmospheric pressure and then supplying high temperature and low temperature together, The present invention provides a method for producing a honey powder using a low-temperature drying method which can easily dry a stock solution of a honey without using a conventional method.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a method for manufacturing a honey powder using a low temperature drying method in which the moisture contained in a honey solution is minimized to prevent moisture from being absorbed thereby preventing a caking phenomenon and increasing a storage period.

In order to accomplish the above object, the present invention provides a method for preparing a honey powder using the low temperature drying method, comprising: a quantitative step of distributing a stock solution of a honey in a fixed amount; The raw honey solution is put into the drying chamber, and the inside of the drying chamber is pressurized under a pressure lower than atmospheric pressure, and a high temperature of 80 to 90 ° C. and a low temperature of 10 to 18 ° C. are applied. step; An inversion step of inverting the honey dried by the primary drying step; A second drying step of adding the inverted honey to the high temperature of 60 to 70 DEG C and the low temperature of 10 to 18 DEG C under atmospheric pressure lower than the atmospheric pressure, and drying the moisture for 5 to 6 hours while dehumidifying the moisture generated therein; And a pulverizing step of pulverizing and pulverizing the solid matter of 100 parts by weight of the dried honey.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a method of manufacturing a honey powder using the low temperature drying method according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a method of manufacturing a honey powder according to the present invention, Is a perspective view showing an operating state of the low temperature drying method according to the present invention.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the present invention relates to a method for producing a honey powder using a low temperature drying method, and more particularly, to a method for producing a honey powder using a low temperature drying method in which a high temperature and a low temperature are added to a stock solution of a honey, The present invention relates to a method for producing a honey powder using a low-temperature drying method for preparing dried honey to have various forms such as granules, powder or the like.

1, the present invention is characterized in that in order to dry and then pulverize a raw stock solution of honey, a quantitative step (S10), a primary drying step (S20), an inversion step (S30), a secondary drying step (S40) Step S50 is performed.

In the quantifying step (S10), the honey stock solution is quantitatively divided into several portions.

In the present embodiment, however, it is dispensed at 1.5 kg to 2 kg. However, it can be dispensed by similar weight depending on the size of the drying chamber and the dried amount of the stock solution of the honey.

In this case, the stock solution of honey can be disposed at a predetermined interval on a drying base made of a material having a good thermal conductivity, and can be easily exposed to high temperature and low temperature to increase drying efficiency.

In the primary drying step (S20), the honey stock solution quantitated through the quantifying step (S10) is introduced and the inside of the drying chamber is pressurized at a high pressure of 80 to 90 DEG C at a pressure of 40 to 50 Pa, And 8 ~ 12 hours while dehumidifying the moisture generated inside.

Here, a high temperature of 80 ° C to 90 ° C and a low temperature of 10 ° C to 18 ° C are fed together to generate a convection phenomenon caused by a temperature difference to circulate the high temperature and the low temperature. The humidity generated by the temperature difference is inhaled, do.

As shown in FIG. 3, a drying chamber 10 for storing a honey solution therein is formed, and a vacuum 20 for adjusting the internal air pressure of the drying chamber 10 is provided to supply high temperature and low temperature, A dehumidifying unit 40 for dehumidifying the moisture generated by the temperature difference between the high temperature and the low temperature is formed.

Herein, the vacuum 20 maintains the air pressure in the drying chamber 10 at a pressure lower than the atmospheric pressure 101,325 Pa.

At this time, it is preferable to change the internal air pressure of the drying chamber 110 to a pressure of 40 Pa to 50 Pa, which is close to a vacuum state.

The temperature regulating unit 30 includes a high temperature supply unit 31 for supplying a high temperature of 60 ° C to 90 ° C and a low temperature supply unit 32 for supplying a low temperature of 10 ° C to 40 ° C to supply high temperature and low temperature together, Thereby generating a convection phenomenon.

In addition, the high-temperature supply unit 31 and the low-temperature supply unit 32 are formed to absorb the internal air of the drying chamber 10 to change the temperature.

Lastly, the dehumidifying unit 40 is formed to suck moisture generated by high and low temperatures in the drying chamber 10 and dehumidify it, and then re-supply the moisture.

Therefore, it maintains atmospheric pressure lower than atmospheric pressure, and it supplies high temperature and low temperature to circulate internal air through convection generated by temperature difference, and can remove moisture caused by temperature difference, thereby increasing energy efficiency, Can be prevented from being changed.

In addition, it is possible to minimize the moisture content by absorbing moisture from the inside of the stock solution of the honey by drying together with the high temperature and the low temperature, and the color change does not occur on the outer surface due to solidification from the inside.

The inversion step S30 is performed through the primary drying step S20 to invert the solidified honey.

Here, in order to dry the moisture of the stock solution of the honey distributed in a quantitative manner, it is turned upside down to increase the portion exposed to the high temperature and the low temperature so that the drying is performed evenly.

In the second drying step (S40), honey, which has been inverted by the inversion step (S30), is added to a high temperature of 60 to 70 DEG C and a low temperature of 10 to 18 DEG C at a pressure of 40 to 50 Pa do.

Here, the drying is performed using the same method as in the primary drying step, but the coagulation of the raw material of the honey is slowly proceeded by the water absorbed in the primary drying step, and the temperature is adjusted so that the moisture can be dried.

In the pulverization step (S50), the honey solids dried by the secondary drying step (S40) are pulverized and pulverized.

Here, the pulverization method using a jet mill apparatus which uses less heat due to pulverization is used so as to prevent the caking phenomenon of the powder by receiving heat by friction, collision, or the like when pulverizing honey solid matter.

Accordingly, the temperature difference between the high temperature and the low temperature supplied to the drying chamber 110 is formed at a temperature difference of 40 ° C to 70 ° C so that a convection phenomenon occurs due to a temperature difference therein. At a high temperature, Do not supply the temperature below 10 ℃.

In the first drying step and the second drying step, the initial temperature is adjusted to 20 ° C to 25 ° C before the internal temperature of the drying chamber 110 is started.

That is, after storing the stock solution of the honey, the initial temperature may be adjusted to increase the drying and energy efficiency to facilitate the temperature change at high temperature and low temperature.

Accordingly, the moisture content can be minimized by drying moisture from the inside of the stock solution of honey, and the phenomenon of caking due to heat generated when crushing can be prevented.

Table 1 shows the following moisture contents for the experiment for drying the moisture of the stock solution of the honey using the low temperature drying method.

As shown in Table 1, the stock solution of honey is rapidly deodorized within 4 to 5 hours after drying.

Generally, when heat is applied to start drying, moisture is taken from the surface and drying proceeds.

However, the drying chamber 10 is dried by a low temperature drying method at a temperature difference between a high temperature and a low temperature at a pressure lower than the atmospheric pressure in the drying chamber 10, and the inside of the drying chamber 10 maintains a constant humidity by the dehumidifier 40, It is the time when drying is started from the inside of the stock solution and the inside moisture is deodorized.

In addition, as shown in Table 1, moisture is not further deodorized in the stock solution after 10 hours, and the moisture is maintained at 5%, and the drying time is 8 to 12 hours.

In addition, the moisture is dried from the inside of the stock solution of the honey, and the solidification of the surface proceeds slowly, so that the moisture can be easily deodorized.

This is done to prevent the caking phenomenon by solving the hygroscopic problem to restore the dried moisture due to the nature of the honey which contains a lot of sugar and sucrose.

Therefore, when the honey powder is quickly deodorized, the moisture is absorbed quickly, and when the moisture is slowly absorbed, the moisture is absorbed slowly, and the moisture absorption is suppressed to the utmost, and the optimum drying time Can be used to produce a honey powder.

And, as the solidification of the surface proceeds slowly from the inside, drying of the surface starts, and the color change of the surface does not occur.

However, the following moisture content is shown in [Table 2] for the experiment for drying the moisture of the stock solution of the honey using the high temperature drying method.

As shown in [Table 2], the stock solution of honey is rapidly dehydrated in 5 to 7 hours after drying.

When drying is started by applying heat, the moisture is deodorized from the surface and drying proceeds quickly. However, when a certain period of time passes, the surface is dried and the inside moisture is taken out at a slow rate.

Also, the drying progresses from the outer surface to the solidification, and the inner moisture is not deodorized and maintained at 14% or more, and the drying proceeds for a long time due to the high temperature, resulting in a color change on the outer surface rapidly solidified.

As shown in FIG. 7, the powder of the honey produced by the first pulverization step can be prepared by mixing various kinds of excipients.

In the mixing step (S60), 40 to 60 parts by weight of the honey powder produced through the pulverization step (S50) and 40 to 60 parts by weight of the barytic agent are mixed and introduced into the drying chamber.

Herein, the buccal agent is composed of dextrin, glucose, sugar alcohol, sorbitol, and starch.

In the tertiary drying step S70, the honey mixture mixed by the mixing step (S60) is heated at a high pressure of 60 to 70 DEG C and at a low temperature of 30 to 40 DEG C under an atmospheric pressure of 40 to 50 Pa, Time dried.

In the third drying step, drying is performed under the same conditions as the first drying step, and the high and low temperatures applied to the inside are controlled to dry the honey powder mixed with the minor ingredients.

In the pulverizing step (S80), the honey solids dried in the tertiary drying step (S70) are pulverized and powdered.

Here, the pulverization step (S80) is performed in the same manner as the previously described pulverization step (S50), and when the honey solid is pulverized, it is heated by friction, collision or the like to prevent caking of the powder.

However, the pulverization step may include pulverizing the honey powder with various additives to prevent caking.

Accordingly, the buoyant agent prevents moisture from being absorbed during long-term storage in daily life by preventing moisture from absorbing moisture, thereby preventing a caking phenomenon occurring during long-term storage and increasing the storage period and maintaining the quality of the honey powder for a long period of time.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims. It is obvious that you can do it.
