Powder handling by the GEA Group
When the GEA Group of companies delivers a complete process line for the Food & Dairy industry, it also involves powder packing and palletizing. When the powder is discharged from the spray drying plant, it is usually conveyed and stored in powder silos. From there the powder is conveyed to vacuum tanks, where it is possible to interchange the atmospheric air by N2 for prolongation of the shelf life of the powder. The actual bagging off in 25 kg bags can be done in an N2 atmosphere to avoid contact with oxygen from the atmosphere.
