Glatt innodryer for gentle drying of herbs

70% less energy consumption than freeze dryers

The new Glatt innodryer allows the most gentle drying of herbs and other temperature sensitive products. The valuable ingredients of the herbs are maintained during the drying. The energy consumption is only a fraction of conventional technologies.

An entirely new and patented drying process has been developed by Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH in cooperation with innodrying GmbH. This process is especially designed for the most gentle drying of high-value herbs, saving not only form, texture and color but also the essential oils. These dried products are by far superior to products produced by conventional drying processes. During a two-year development period this has been proven for many herbs, e.g. basil, chives, tarragon and parsley. Currently the application is tested for mushrooms and additional high value temperature sensitive products.
Compared to conventional freeze dryers the Glatt innodryer saves about 70% energy, resulting in low processing costs. In addition the investment cost is considerably below the freeze dryer.
Besides the new drying process the Glatt innodryer can be used for all standard fluid bed processes, like spray granulation, agglomeration and coating. This flexibility is an additional advantage when the drying is only a seasonal business.

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.
