GEA Steamfusion Nozzle

The GEA Steamfusion Nozzle for our FSD® and TFD spray dryers is uniquely designed to carry out instantaneous, controllable steam treatment of your product feed within the spray nozzle itself. The nozzle is interchangeable with other nozzles designed for the GEA NAD (nozzle with adjustable diameter) nozzle lance system that fits into our DDD® (direct duct air disperser). How does it work? Steam is applied to the product directly as it passes through the GEA Steamfusion Nozzle. To achieve this the product feed is finely dispersed by the feed nozzle into the steam environment inside the steam cap. The product is heated instantly in the steam before being sprayed into the hot air of the spray drying chamber, where the droplets are dried to particles.
