Better quality tomato powder from 45% less energy

摘要

The quality of tomato powder depends on the frying equipment. That's the conclusion of Jesper Oldrup from the Food & Dairy Division of Niro A/S in his presentation to the Food Ingredients Exhibition at the Excel exhibition centre in London's docklands recently. The FILTERMAT~(™) dryer from Niro has the ability to handle this hygroscopic product, without the use of additives and produce a superior product when compared with that from conventional spray dryers. The process uses up to 45% less energy and the powder is less prone to syneresis when reconstituted.
