SS316 Reliable Steam heating Spray Drying Machine for Acid Whey Powder
Product Description:
Produced from the whey of acid-coagulated cheeses like cottage cheese.
To reduce stickiness in acid whey powder during spray drying, common additives include:
- Anticaking Agents:
Silica: Helps absorb moisture and prevent clumping.
- Carriers:
Maltodextrin: Provides bulk and reduces stickiness.
Modified Starches: Improve flow properties.
- Emulsifiers:
Lecithin: Enhances powder flow and reduces clumping.
These additives help improve the drying process and enhance the final product's stability and usability.
Procss overview:
Process Overview
- Feed Preparation:Pre-concentrate the acid whey using evaporation to reduce moisture content.
- Atomization:Use a nozzle or rotary atomizer to create fine droplets of the pre-concentrated whey.
- Drying Chamber:Introduce droplets into a hot air stream in the chamber to evaporate moisture quickly.
- Collection:Collect the dried powder using a cyclone separator.

Temperature Control:
Inlet Temperature: Typically around 160-200°C (320-392°F).
Outlet Temperature: Usually around 70-90°C (158-194°F).
Prevents degradation of proteins and maintains quality.
Stickiness:
Acid whey can be sticky; additives or optimized drying conditions may be needed.
Hygiene:
Ensure rigorous cleaning to prevent contamination.
Benefits
Shelf Life: Extends the usability of whey.
Versatility: Powder can be used in various food applications.
Careful monitoring and control of the drying parameters are crucial to achieving high-quality acid whey powder.
