A quicker and less labour intensive freeze drying process with the potential to produce a fine loose powder of even the most sensitive and precious products without changing the product structure.
Less labour intensive than the traditional tray freeze drying process this new technology produces product with an amorphous-like structure with better redispersibility and free-flowing properties. The particle size of the final product is often extremely fine and uniform.
Short drying time
Single stage production in one compact vessel
Minimal product handling, less risk of contamination
Continuous operation as required
Easy, direct product collection
Hosokawa Micron’s stirred freeze drying technology incorporates the use of a jacketed and stirred Vrieco-Nauta conical vacuum dryer operated at low temperature and pressure to produce lump free, free flowing product.
