Glatt Particle Design from Nano to Macro at SOLIDS 2023

Booth H 04-5 with topics from the product idea to the industrial manufacture and optimization of bulk solids + ingredients
Glatt will showcase its portfolio for particle design at SOLIDS 2023
29 – 30 March 2023 – Messe Dortmund

Meet our experts at booth H04-5

As a leader in fluid bed technology and powder synthesis with its own Technology Center in Weimar, Germany, Glatt will highlight integrated concepts in the areas of particle design, process know-how and plant engineering. Glatt experts will be happy to discuss a wide range of topics — from product idea to the industrial manufacture of products and ingredients — in the bulk solids processing industries.

To form particles with application-optimised properties from liquid or solid starting materials, integrated solutions are required. Those offered by Glatt using fluid bed and spouted bed technologies, as well as powder synthesis, are perfect examples. Targeted combinations of shaping and thermal treatment enable the production of both homogeneous and coated nano and micro powders, as well as dust-free easy flowing granulates or pellets. Benefiting from tailor-made particle properties, these are used in numerous high-performance materials, such as catalysts or innovative medical ceramics. Other areas of application include the activation and coating of new types of battery materials.

Double encapsulation, better solubility

Glatt has shown how it’s possible to improve both the bioavailability and the water solubility of plant-based functional ingredients in a flexible two-step encapsulation process using poorly soluble plant extracts such as curcumin. In the first step, microparticles are produced with no thermal stress. By combining a biodegradable protein-based shell with a small particle size, the final product is very bioavailable. After encapsulation, the curcumin extract dissolves much more easily in water. The solution is transparent, homogeneous and stable. In the following drying step, the microcapsule dispersion is converted into stable particles with a narrow size distribution, which are compact, dust-free, free-flowing and readily soluble in water. The process can be adapted in many ways.

More than just drying: integrated particle design

Offering targeted solutions for a broad array of material systems, applications and industries, fluid bed spray granulation elevates the basic concept of spray drying to a whole new level. Compared with a spray dried product, for example, the properties of those made using a fluidised bed can be customised to meet specific requirements. Depending on the operational parameters and the technical configuration of the plant, particle shape, structure and size can be precisely defined with a significant amount of flexibility.

At SOLIDS Dortmund, Glatt will show how particle properties can be influenced to improve the functionality of bulk materials. Glatt supports its customers from product idea to the production of functional powders, granules and pellets. Throughout the process, customers benefit from access to innovative technologies, very short development times for specific particle properties and smooth scale-up based on laboratory and pilot tests in the company’s own Technology Center in Weimar.

Spray (micro) encapsulation of sensitive substances in matrix form
An overview of essential oil and vitamin case studies Phytochemicals are increasingly found in many food, chemical and agricultural items. Product and process optimization is becoming ever-more important in all of these industries, with a focus on quality, manufacturing efficiency, stability and formulation costs. Essential oils are volatile substances with a relatively high vapor pressure; they are susceptible to oxidation and light and may change or may even lose their properties when directly exposed to stressors. Like other sensitive, volatile, odor- or taste-intensive liquid active ingredients, they must therefore be protected from the environment or vice versa. For this protection and to simplify handling — as well as for better dosage and targeted release — these substances are therefore progressively offered and used in encapsulated and/or free-flowing forms. Various processes can be used to deliver products with a compact structure. During process development, the most suitable procedures and equipment

Optimising functional ingredients for enhanced nutrition
Fluidised bed and spouted bed processes offer manufacturers almost unlimited possibilities in terms of optimised particle design and the functionalisation of ingredients, the properties of which can be fine-tuned Fluidised bed and spouted bed processes by Glatt offer manufacturers almost unlimited possibilities in terms of optimised particle design and the functionalisation of ingredients, the properties of which can be fine-tuned using spray granulation, agglomeration, microencapsulation and coating. The consumer demand for fortified products is constantly growing and has been well received by end users. The form in which health-promoting probiotics, dietary fibres or antioxidants are consumed depends on both the preferences and everyday habits of the individual: some prefer sports drinks, protein bars or enriched iced tea, whereas others favour more direct dosage forms, such as effervescent tablets, sachets or capsules. However, although the manufacturing processes associated with these products present numerous challenges, a universal requirement is that functional ingredients must be stable during storage, precisely dosed, dissolve quickly or have a depot effect.

Ceramic Raw Materials from the Pulsating Hot Gas Stream
In this article, the inherent potential of barium strontium cobalt iron oxide (BSCF), doped and coated zirconium dioxide is described. Summary Using the two sample substances, BSCF and doped/coated zirconium dioxide, it was possible to show that it’s inherently possible to produce complex ceramic substances on a laboratory to pilot scale. The powder synthesis technology used for this purpose offers additional possibilities beyond drying in a pulsating hot gas stream by adjusting the frequency and amplitude to influence particle size, structure and morphology. The flexible development of ceramic raw materials makes it possible to create and test application-specific optimized materials with little effort. After successful testing, the technology can be scaled-up accordingly and the batch sizes adapted to meet actual demand. Innovative ideas for materials and products High-tech ceramics are currently used for various medical and technical applications; but, increasing competitive pressure is leading to growing demand for these special materials. As such, they are only commercially available from
