1、 Overview of blue-green algae
The blue-green algae is a kind of lower plants, belonging to the cyanophyta, Oscillatoriaceae family. They, like bacteria, do not have a true nucleus in their cells, so they are also known as cyanobacteria. The cellular structure of blue-green algae is primitive and very simple, making them the earliest photosynthetic organisms to appear on Earth. They have lived on this planet for 3.5 billion years. It grows in water and can be seen under a microscope as a spiral filament, hence its name.
2、Advantages of Blue Green Algae Dryer
1) Using circulating hot water as a heat source to improve drying efficiency;
2) The drying conditions are mild, and the product temperature is relatively low, maintained at approximately 70 ℃;
3) Operating under low temperature and normal pressure conditions can effectively preserve the color and nutrients of the product, reducing the degree of oxidation of the product;
4) The drying time is about 3-5 minutes short;
5) Can dry most liquid materials without the need for non sugar carriers;
6) Adopting modular design, capable of continuous operation;
7) Low energy consumption.
3、Blue Green Algae Dryer Scope of Application
After testing and production, the liquid paste material refractive window dryer is the most suitable for heat sensitive materials, mainly including:
Vegetables: spinach, asparagus, tomatoes, Broccoli, pumpkin, etc
Nutrients: Spirulina, blue-green algae, seaweed, barley grass juice, yeast, etc
Beverages: coffee, tea, etc
Waste: soybean residue, muddy materials, etc
4、Blue Green Algae Dryer Technical Principles
Blue Green Algae Dryer has advantages such as simple equipment, low cost, and energy conservation. As a new thin layer drying technology, it has attracted market interest and attention. Compared with drum drying, refraction window drying can significantly reduce the drying temperature, and is applicable to the drying of paste materials with strong heat sensitivity that cannot be dried by spray and need to be dried at a lower temperature, such as drugs such as potassium ascorbate or magnesium ascorbate, nutrients such as spirulina or blue-green algae, and egg products such as protein, egg yolk, and whole egg.
