LCI dryers' short residence time and agitated thin-film provide the perfect conditions for gently drying lecithin gums to low moisture levels while preserving color and meeting product specifications. The LCI lecithin dryer process has been used worldwide to maintain the lightest possible color and providing higher profits for lecithin producers.
LCI can provide evaporators in several design types, including Turba-Film®, historical “Luwa” vertical designs, and horizontal designs incorporating residence time adjustment control.
