Spray dryers convert liquid feeds—solutions, suspensions or slurries—into dry powders by atomizing the feed into a hot drying gas. In biotechnology and life sciences they produce sterile powders, enzymes, probiotics and excipients with controlled particle size, residual moisture and limited thermal exposure. Bench, pilot and production units differ in capacity and features like closed-loop drying, sterile housings and precise inlet/outlet temperature control for sensitive biologics.
Check the atomizer (nozzle or rotary), heater and burner condition, cyclones or baghouse, seals, control system, and wetted surface materials. Ask for cleaning/validation records and the list of previous products to assess contamination risk.
Match required final powder throughput to the unit’s maximum feed rate and typical solids concentration. Review drying gas flow, residence time and outlet temperature specs; run a pilot test or consult vendor scale-up data for accurate predictions.
Plan for weight, footprint and any need to partially disassemble the unit. Ensure the unit is cleaned and certified free of biological residues, use proper crating, identify lifting points, and hire carriers experienced with process equipment and hazardous-material rules if applicable.
Confirm power, compressed air, steam or hot gas source, cooling and exhaust systems, dust collection and floor load capacity. Allow clearance for maintenance, access for large components, and connections for control systems and safety interlocks.
Schedule inspections for atomizer wear, bearings, seals, heating elements, filters and ductwork. Keep spare parts for critical wear items, perform routine cleaning/CIP and microbial/particle validation for GMP operations, and calibrate instrumentation regularly.
