Effect of Aeration Techniques on Flow Properties of Spray-Dried Sugar Powders — Process Optimization Studies

The present study is aimed at studying the effect of aeration (ozone) techniques on the flow properties of spray-dried sugarcane juice. In addition, the replacement of maltodextrin with natural carrier agents (carrot fibers) is also explored. The spray-dried sugarcane juice powders (both control and...

Description
Summary:The present study is aimed at studying the effect of aeration (ozone) techniques on the flow properties of spray-dried sugarcane juice. In addition, the replacement of maltodextrin with natural carrier agents (carrot fibers) is also explored. The spray-dried sugarcane juice powders (both control and ozonated samples) were analyzed for various flow and physical properties. Among different carriers and ozone concentrations used, the best combination obtained was maltodextrin (26.67 g/100 g of juice) and ozone concentration (4 g ozone/150 g of powder). Ozonation of cane juice powders did not alter the final product quality which is confirmed by FTIR and HPLC analysis. Average particle size of ozonated samples is higher (2522.147 ± 487.067 nm) than that of control (792.067 ± 85.389 nm), thereby defending the enhanced flow in ozonated samples. Thus, a simple aeration technique like ozonation was found to enhance the flow properties of spray-dried powders. Graphical abstract
