Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1830145A2] The procedure for drying/concentrating of materials such as food products, comprises subjecting the material in a pressure container to an atmosphere with pressure reduced to an ambient pressure, condensing the water evaporated from the material, and discharging the condensate. The material is subjected to a gas stream led into the circulation. The gas stream is supplied after contacting with the material to the condenser. The gas stream is brought into the condenser with a fluid nitrogen medium in thermal contact. The material and/or the gas stream are heated. An independent claim is included for a device for drying or condensing of materials.
