Chapter 2 Additional energy can be saved by recompressing the vapour using a thermal vapour recompressor (TVR) or a mechanical vapour recompressor (MVR). However, this can lead to steam contamination, making it unsuitable for return to the boilers and, therefore, increasing the waste water load. In the final stage, the vapour may be condensed by cooling with cooling water. Some of the vapours can be drawn off the evaporators to be used as heat sources for other process requirements. The condensate may be of such a quality that it may even be fed to other processes as process water. During processing, product compounds gradually deposit on the heat-exchange surfaces. This can affect the efficiency of the heat-exchange and lead to heat losses in the system. These deposits may be inorganic or organic, depending on the product. The installation must, therefore, be cleaned at regular intervals to prevent too high a heat loss occurring with a subsequent loss of product quality. 2.1.6.2 Drying (liquid to solid) (F.2) 2.1.6.2.1 Objective Drying is defined as the application of heat under controlled conditions to remove the water present in liquid foods by evaporation to yield solid products. It differs from evaporation, which yields concentrated liquid products. The main purpose of drying is to extend the shelf-life of foods by reducing their aw. 2.1.6.2.2 Field of application Typical applications for drying techniques include dairy products, e.g. milk, whey and creamers, coffee, coffee surrogates, tea, flavours, powdered drinks, and processed cereal-based foods. 2.1.6.2.3 Description of techniques, methods and equipment Two different principles can be applied for drying; hot air drying and surface drying by heat conduction through a heat transfer system. In hot air drying, hot air is used as the heating medium and is in direct or indirect contact with the liquid product. The heat transferred from the hot air to the product causes evaporation of the water content. In surface drying by heat conduction through a heat transfer system, the heating medium is not in contact with wet food but separated from it by a heat transfer surface. The heat is transferred by conduction through the surface, and by convection from the hot surface to the food product for evaporating and removing water from the food. This has two main advantages compared to hot air driers; less air volume is required and, therefore, thermal efficiency is higher, and the process may be carried out in the absence of oxygen. The driers used are spray, roller, and vacuum band and vacuum shelf driers. In spray drying, the material to be dried is suspended in air, i.e. the liquid is converted into a fog-like mist or atomised liquid, providing a large surface area. The atomised liquid is exposed to a flow of hot air in a drying chamber. The moisture evaporates quickly and the solids are recovered as a powder consisting of fine, hollow, spherical particles. Air inlet temperatures of up to about 250 °C or even higher, depending on the type of product, are used, but due to evaporation, the air temperature drops very rapidly to a temperature of about 95 °C, which is the outlet temperature of the air. The product temperature is 20to 30 °C below the air outlet temperature. Heating the drying air can be accomplished by steam or by direct gas-fired air heaters or by indirect heaters fired by gas, liquid or solid fuels. Spray drying is applied on a large scale in the dairy industry and for drying coffee. 42 January 2006 RHC/EIPPCB/FDM_BREF_FINAL
Chapter 2 Generally, as an integral part of the process, the exhaust air is passed through cyclones and/or filters to recover particulate materials or dust which are carried over in the exhaust air. The recovered material is incorporated back into the product. The principle of roller drying is that a thin film of material is applied to the smooth surface of a continuously rotating, steam-heated metal drum. The film of the dried material is continuously scraped off by a stationary knife located opposite the point of application of the liquid material. The drier consists of a single drum or a pair of drums with or without satellite rollers. The applied steam pressure in the drums can vary from 4 to 8 bar, depending on the product. Roller drying is applied, e.g. for milk, starch and potato flakes. Finally, in vacuum band and vacuum shelf driers, food slurry is spread or sprayed onto a steel belt, which passes over two hollow drums within a vacuum chamber. The food is first dried by the steam-heated drum, and then by the steam-heated coils or radiant heaters located over the belt. The dried food is cooled by the second water-cooled drum and removed by a doctor blade. The rapid drying and limited heat damage to the food makes this method suitable for heatsensitive foods. 2.1.6.3 Dehydration (solid to solid) (F.3) 2.1.6.3.1 Objective Dehydration is defined as the application of heat under controlled conditions to remove, by evaporation, the water present in solid foods or by-products from agricultural raw material processing. The main purpose of dehydration is to extend the shelf-life of foods by reducing their aw. 2.1.6.3.2 Field of application Some examples of dried foods are dried potatoes, starch derivatives, sugar beet pulp, flour, pasta, beans, fruit, nuts, cereals, meal of oilseeds, tea leaves, vegetables and spices. The dehydration of wet germinated grain is applied in the production of malt which is also called kilning. For the malting process, the drying step is essential and is required to create the desired colour and flavour. 2.1.6.3.3 Description of techniques, methods and equipment Dehydration affects food texture and colour, and causes the loss of volatile components, all of which have a detrimental effect on both the quality and the nutritional value of the food. The design and operation of dehydration equipment aims to minimise these changes by selecting appropriate drying conditions for individual foods. For dehydration, the two different principles are, i.e. hot air drying and surface drying by heat conduction through a heat transfer system. These are explained in detail in Section 2.1.6.2. Various types of driers are used, i.e. fluidised, cabinet or tray, conveyor or belt, pneumatic, flash and/or ring, rotary, tunnel, steam bundle, steam, kiln and vacuum driers. FBDs are composed of metal trays with mesh or perforated bases that can contain a bed of particulate foods up to 15 cm deep. Hot air is blown through the bed, causing the food to become suspended and then vigorously agitated. The air acts as both the drying and the fluidising medium. They can be batch or continuously operated. FBDs are compact and allow a good control over the drying conditions and relatively high thermal efficiencies and high drying rates. These driers have very high rates of heat and mass transfer and consequently short drying times. Drying can take place with air temperatures below 100 °C, but may also be up to 170 °C or higher depending on the product/process. FBD is often applied as a last drying step after spray drying (see Section 2.1.6.2), in the dairy industry. RHC/EIPPCB/FDM_BREF_FINAL January 2006 43
