Spray Drying Technology

October 28 - 29, 2025

$1695 per person.

Team discount: $1525 per person

Live in Chicago, IL

13 hours


   Do you need to improve product quality or increase the production rate in your spray dryer? This course covers the fundamentals of spray dryer operation AND atomization that affect product quality and throughput. Practical drying fundamentals in conjunction with the operation and optimization of both spray nozzles and rotary atomizers will be discussed. You will gain insights to control the process and learn to troubleshoot operational problems. Applying the key teachings will help you improve your process operations and result in the optimization of your spray dryer. 



During this course, you will:

  • Gain an understanding of practical spray dryer theory and fundamentals
  • Analyze the differences in performance between various atomization methods and how to select the best atomizer for your product requirements
  • Gain an understanding of how properties such as surface tension, viscosity, non-Newtonian effects, and temperature affect the performance of your spray dryers
  • Learn the modes of drying droplets to form particles and different particle morphology
  • Examine methods to improve spray dryer efficiency and reduce operating and energy costs
