Description

The DCN Powder Entrainment System inducts 600 kg of powders in approximately two minutes. A patented hopper and injector nozzle create a strong vacuum that disperses powders into the liquid without the agglomerations or fisheyes that usually form when powders such as milk powder, whey powder or hydrocolloids are added directly.

Applications

The system suits products with a high powder content, such as wet pet food, condensed milk, fortified milk drinks, maheu, bushera, and dairy and non-dairy drink pre-mixes.

How it works

The hopper does not block, even when the powder becomes wetted. As steam collapses into the liquid phase it gives a controllable homogenising effect, so powders are fully entrained quickly without additional mixing. The simultaneous heating and mixing of the Jet Nozzle also improves hydration of starches and gums and distributes them evenly through the liquid.
