From lab-scale samples to tanker truck quantities, we provide toll manufacturing and contract R&D for a wide variety of industries. At AVEKA, we spray dry a wide variety of industrial materials, from ceramics and polymers to inorganic salts and surfactants. AVEKA's R&D and Production teams created a 5-stage blending assembly with mixing vessels for each addition. Pumps moved the slurry with raw ingredient #1 and water from the first vessel into the next vessel with raw ingredient #2 and water. This process continued until all five ingredients were in one vessel and ready to spray dry. After the solution was spray dried at various test conditions, our Analytical Laboratory characterized the resulting powder. We scanned Electron Microscopy with Elemental Analysis Capability to determine which sample most effectively incorporated each raw ingredient in the particles.
