Spray drying of starch involves the conversion of a liquid starch solution into a dry powder form through atomization and drying in a heated chamber. The process is commonly used in the food industry to produce powdered starch for use as a thickening or binding agent in various food products.
Spray drying of starch involves the use of a spray dryer, which atomizes the starch solution into small droplets that are then dried by hot air or gas. The resulting powder is uniform in size, shape, and moisture content, making it suitable for use in various food applications. The spray drying process also allows for the preservation of starch functionality, such as its thickening properties, while also providing increased stability and shelf-life compared to liquid starch solutions.
Overall, spray drying of starch is a widely used and effective method for producing powdered starch for use in the food industry.
