Optimizing drying parameters for milk powders

Wednesday, March 2, 2016 - 21:30 in Physics & Chemistry

Making milk powder seems simple, but it’s not. Creamer must dissolve very quickly in hot coffee, but powder density is critical for infant formula. Dairy scientists and chemical engineers are using a single-droplet spray dryer and computation fluid dynamics modeling to determine the drying parameters needed to produce powders with those specific properties.
