New Chairman and CEO for Hosokawa Micron Corporation
From their headquarters in Osaka, Japan, The Hosokawa Micron Group, world leaders in powder and particle processing technology, blown film technology and confectionery technology, announce changes to their board and management team to take the company to its next stage of development.
Mr. Masuo Hosokawa stands down from the position of CEO of Hosokawa Micron Corporation (HMC) and assumes the position of Chairman of HMC. He is succeeded by Mr. Kiyomi Miyata who is appointed President, Representative Director/CEO of Hosokawa Micron Corporation. [read more...]
Super Flash Dryer Competes against Spray Dryer
Manufacturers considering spray drying, should check out the Drymeister, super flash dryer, before making their decision. Capable of handling sticky, more concentrated feed materials than the spray dryer – which sometimes has to have water added to the feed material, the Drymeister can accept dewatered filter cake straight from the dewatering stage, therefore saving time and energy.
New Picoline Series - Batch Production Down to <1g
Featuring a series of eight individual machines specifically designed for the production of very small batches of between <1g and several grams, the Picoline equipment maintains, in miniature, the high class engineering standards and leading edge technology for which Hosokawa Micron is renowned.

A new design of a vaccine waste handling system, is not to be sneezed at, say Hosokawa Micron engineers as the threat of a swine flu pandemic promises to be realised. As vaccine producers ramp up their production of a range of flu vaccines the problems of handling the waste from the process becomes a significant consideration in maintaining the safety of personnel.

New Flexible, Multi Purpose Dryer
The Vrieco Nauta Vacuum Dryer is now much more than just a vacuum dryer – due to recent developments it is now capable of many different processes such as filtration, chemical treatments, sterilisation at high temperature and pressure, and vacuum drying making it suitable for a broad spectrum of products.
Now offering a 50% reduction in processing time to deliver potentially significant energy savings the system offers maximum production flexibility with minimal operator intervention.
Process time is reduced not only by mechanical dewatering (which can be performed by installing a filter directly on top or inside the dryer) prior to drying but by then heating the extracted water which is then recirculated back into the dryer which reduces the process heating time.
Crystallisation can also be carried out in the vacuum dryer where the reactants can be first dissolved and reacted. The efficient mixing within the dryer accelerates dissolution and temperature control. [read more...]
Create Nano Sized Metal Oxides
The NanoCreator FCM-Mini - continuous nano-particle production system for metal oxides creates high purity particles by the build up method that allows particles to be adjusted from a few nm to a few hundred nm. The NanoCreator FCM-Mini is able to create single component particles or multi-metal oxide components.
The raw material is vaporised in a reactor and nano particles are generated by a chemical reaction within the gas phase with the assistance of a flame. The critical step of the process is to collect the nano particles by rapid quenching before the occurrence of any grain size growth or particle agglomeration appears.The system can produce nano particles consisting of multi-components with three structural patterns; core shell type, solid solution type and finely dispersed type.
