Spray drying is widely used across many industries to create diverse products with a broad scope of functionality such as detergents, food powders, ceramics and pharmaceuticals. By utilizing digital design tools alongside characterization experiments, efficiency can be achieved both in the design of the spray drying process as well as in the operation. This webinar will practically demonstrate the workflow that has been successfully utilised to achieve savings in the real world.

gPROMS FormulatedProducts provides a comprehensive approach to spray drying with a variety of models for both the simulation of the process as well as auxiliary units and for characterisation. Combined with powerful tools such as model validation and Global Systems Analysis (GSA), it has never been easier for users of different experience to benefit from a digital approach to spray drying. This webinar will demonstrate these tools and the workflow that has been utilized in past applications.
