Interview with Hendrik Schreier about Glatt GF ModFlex

Interview with Hendrik Schreier about Glatt GF ModFlex

New modular system concept for continuous spray agglomeration in fluidized beds

Hendrik Schreier, Sales Manager Process Technology Food, Feed & Fine Chemicals at Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH explains why Glatt - an expert in continuous fluidized bed technology for almost 30 years - is now presenting GF ModFlex, a new modular system concept for continuous spray agglomeration in fluidized beds for food applications. He points out the advantages of this concept especially for the production of food and presents its innovations with regard to the reduction of energy requirements and operating costs.

Company information

Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH
Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH
Glatt is specialized in intelligent particle design for the generation and functionalization of powders and granulates with defined, adjustable properties. The focus is on particles and powders for pigments, catalytic, ceramic or battery materials as well as for granules and pellets as additives for e.g. industrial salts, detergents and cleaning agents, fertilizers, pesticides, food, feed, dietary supplements and pharmaceuticals. Encapsulation of flavors, enzymes, vitamins, microorganisms, probiotics or fatty acids (PUFA) is just as possible as encapsulation of essential oils and other active, sensitive substances to be protected. With Glatt APPtec®, a unique technology for spray calcination, it is possible to generate, coat and then calcine particles in a pulsing hot gas stream in a single process step. As a pioneer in fluid bed and spouted bed technologies, Glatt masters these important processes for the formulation and optimization of particle properties through defined spray agglomeration, spray granulation, spray coating or (micro)encapsulation as well as through combinations of these processes. Also in the high temperature range. Glatt supports the product idea from the early phase of product formulation through process development to scale-up to production scale. Under the leadership of the Glatt Process & Plant Engineering teams, customized production plants for nutrition, fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and biotech applications are successfully planned and commissioned. Worldwide. Whether based on powder synthesis, fluid bed or spouted bed technology, Glatt also offers certified contract manufacturing for customers without their own production capacities.

Glatt presents a new fluid bed design for continuous spray agglomeration for food ACHEMA 2018, Hall 3.0, Booth F1: At ACHEMA, the leading international trade fair for the process industries in June in Frankfurt am Main, market leading supplier of fluidized bed and spouted bed technologies, Glatt, will showcase several new developments, including a new modular and compact plant concept for continuous agglomeration - focused on food applications - as well as a modular control system that’s easy to customize. For the first time, Glatt will introduce a compact, newly developed fluidized bed plant concept for the continuous fluid bed spray agglomeration of fine powders and powder blends. GF ModFlex enables the production of uniformly porous, virtually dust-free, outstandingly soluble and very easily dosed granules. The process also ensures the homogenous incorporation of ingredients into agglomerates. Being a gentle process, the nutritional and functional properties of the ingredients are preserved. When it comes to product quality, the systems designed

HiE 2016: Innovative particle design capabilities for fluid and fine-grained ingredients At Health Ingredients Europe 2016 in Frankfurt, Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH showcased its pioneering fluidized bed and spouted bed technologies for sophisticated applications that require specific particle sizes or shapes, optimum solubility, compressibility or the functional protection of active ingredients. The engineering expert and plant manufacturer highlighted its capabilities in product and process development across the fields of food, beverage and instant products, dietary supplements and nutraceuticals. At the technology experts’ booth, producers of food and active ingredients were able to dive into the process chambers of large scale facilities with the help of Augmented Reality systems. They experienced the way in which fluids can be spray granulated, powders can be spray agglomerated and sensitive substances can be encapsulated and covered with a functional coating. Conversations on the Glatt stand also focussed on the technical challenges that can occur

A virtual tour through the world of functional ingredients
Vitafoods 2016: Glatt presented state-of-the-art technologies for tailor-made ingredients At Vitafoods 2016, Glatt Ingenieurtechnik showcased technologies for innovative particle design. The engineering expert researches and develops drying, agglomeration, granulation, encapsulation and coating processes for powders and liquids to protect ingredients or to provide them with specific functional properties. Glatt is one of the world’s leading suppliers of integrated plant solutions based on fluidized bed and spouted bed technology. Visitors to the technology expert’s booth were able to delve into a virtual world: Aug-mented Reality presentations gave a unique insight into the process chambers of large-scale facilities, where liquids are spray granulated, powders are agglomerated and sensitive substances are encapsulated. Agglomeration is the only process that gives instant beverages such as cappuccino and tea outstanding solubility. Probiotics only remain stable enough to reach the digestive tract with homogenous encapsula-tion. Spray granulation
