Niro spray dryers have been used world-wide during the past approximately 40 years by manufactures of by-products from slaughterhouse products.

BLOOD AND GELATINE
Blood and slaughterhouse by-products are mainly used as additives to human or animal feed. The production equipment for processing and producing powders of gelatine and blood has experienced change in application depending on the demand for these products. Increasing health and safety demands have resulted in increased focus on the application of these drying plants.

BLOOD
Animal blood is either spray dried as regular blood, or following the separation into plasma and red albumin. Blood products are dried at low temperatures in order to prevent heat coagulation. Both nozzle and rotary atomization can be used in co-current flow dryers.

GELATINE (ANIMAL)
The animal gelatine is spray dried as simple gelatine or hydrolyzed gelatine. The gelatine must be concentrated before drying to ensure an economically feasible process.
