Product Drying

The most common method for product drying is to introduce hot air, thus evaporating the moisture contained within the product. However this is not ideal as the increase in heat and humidity increases the risk of mould and fungus growth.

This in turn can cause corrosion to machinery and the extra heat can damage the product being dried. By using Munters dehumifiers the conditions can be kept constant to prevent these destructive conditions from occuring.

Product drying processes such as spray drying and fluid-bed systems can be significantly optimized using Munters energy efficient and highly hygienic dehumidification solutions.

Drying of products e.g. sausage, fruit and cheese requires a controlled humidity level to avoid growth of microorganisms and to ensure reproducible drying cycles year-round.

Avoiding mould and fungus with dehumidification

The most common method for product drying is to introduce hot air, thus evaporating the moisture contained within the product. However, this is not ideal as the increase in heat and humidity increases the risk of mould and fungus growth. Raised humidity levels can also cause corrosion to machinery and the extra heat can damage the product being dried. By using Munters dehumidifiers, the conditions can be kept constant to prevent these destructive conditions from occurring.
