Encapsulation and spray drying solutions by BUCHI
Spray drying is the definitive one-step drying process to transform solutions, emulsions, slurries or melts into a dry powder. The liquid droplets are atomised by a specialised nozzle and sprayed into a hot dying gas to form the required particles.
The new and innovative Prilling by Vibration technology Encapsulator from BUCHI offers immobilisation of enzymes, drugs, flavours and fragrances, vitamins, oils, cells or microbes into a wide range of polymers. Uniform beads and capsules are produced. The bead diameter is pre-selectable in the range of 0.15 mm to 2 mm with a narrow standard deviation and a productivity of up to 6’000 beads per second.
The potential applications are:
Powders for pulmonary diseases: Generate particle sizes with low density and as small as 5 µm for quick and easy delivery into the lung(s).
- Encapsulation of oils for easier handling, taste and flavor masking
- Controlled drug release for efficient use of medicine
- Easier handling and dosing of expensive products in a cheaper carrier
BUCHI’s product line consists of the Mini Spray Dryer B-290, Nano Spray Dryer B-90, Encapsulator B-390 and Encapsluator B-395 Pro, which produces particles from nano and up to millimeter size. Additional we also offer many accessories to help increase the number of applications.
The new accessory for our Spray Dryer line, the Dehumidifier B-296, enables the constant supply of inlet air with the same properties, allowing the constant obtainment of reproducible results. Furthermore, it is also possible to work continuously with organic solvent(s) and water mixtures when the dehumidifier is used in combination with the Inert Loop B-295.
