| Freeze-drying is a low temperature process and is often preferred over high temperature drying. Freeze-drying is environment friendly, because it makes use of nitrogen as a refrigerant in place of chlorofluorocarbons. Freeze-drying equipment are largely versatile and can be used for a wide range of applications. Food and pharmaceutical are the key end-use markets for freeze-drying equipment. Other areas of application include pharmaceuticals such as vaccines and antibiotics; biological processing, which include blood fractions, animals, and insects; chemicals; food products, mainly in the manufacture of coffee; and metallic powders. |
