Fluidized bed solutions for optimized ingredient production

The industrial-scale production of innovative food ingredients requires state-of-the-art technologies. Fluidized bed processes offer manufacturers almost unlimited possibilities in terms of optimized particle design and the functionalization of ingredients. Functional foods have become an established market segment. Their increasing complexity is putting greater demands on established production processes, which means that manufacturers are faced with the challenge of ensuring ingredient stability throughout the entire shelf-life of the product, for example. Furthermore, the taste of many ingredients needs to be optimized, their release profiles must be carefully controlled and they must dissolve easily in water. Moreover, micro-components such as vitamins, minerals or probiotics cannot be incorporate...
