Advanced Cyclone Systems, S. A. (ACS) applications

Efficient recovery of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) or final product formulations (FPFs) after a spray dryer can be quite challenging, depending on the particle size. The same problem occurs in many milling, micronization and tablet pressing applications. The preferred way to recover these sensitive and expensive products is with cyclone collectors due to their direct and sanitary powder capture. Unlike bag filters or wet scrubbers, cyclones minimize filter or product contamination and product cross contamination and can easily handle a wide range of operating temperature, pressure and moisture conditions.

Efficient recovery of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), chemical substances or food powders after drying applications such as spray and fluid bed drying is frequently a problem. The same problem occurs in many milling and micronization applications. The preferred way to recover these sensitive products is with cyclone collectors due to their direct powder capture. Unlike bag filters or wet scrubbers, cyclones minimize filter or product contamination and product cross contamination and can easily handle a wide range of operating temperature, pressure and moisture conditions.

An increasingly high number of industries, from the fine chemicals to the cosmetics industry, are investing on the design and production of nanoparticles, such as metal oxides, in specific reactors. There is a need to recover these very fine powders from the exhaust streams often at high temperature, pressure and moisture. The very fine particle size precludes the use of mechanical collectors by themselves. The main problem of using barrier filters is product hold-up and breakage of the nanoparticles. Client`s needsinclude a system to effectively recover the maximum amount of nanoparticles that can operate in continuous and is easy to clean.
