Impact of spray drying conditions on the reconstitution, efficiency and flow properties of spray dried apple powder-optimization, sensorial and rheological assessment.

ABSTRACT: Spray drying is a preferred choice for development of highly soluble, rapidly dispersible apple powder. However, adhesion during spray drying of syrups and juices is encountered which leads to product loss. The main solution to reduce adhesion is using drying aids. Besides, control of spray drying operating parameters (inlet air temperature and feed flow rate) also closely govern the powder yield, physical, functional and microstructural properties of spray dried fruit powder. Thus, the aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of inlet air temperature (IAT), carrier agent concentration (MD:GA), feed flow rate (FFR) & feed TSS (FTSS) on moisture content, hygroscopicity, dispersibility, water solubility index (WSI), bulk density (BD), porosity (Φ), flowability, lightness (L*) and radical
