Agglomeration & Micro-encapsulation
Agglomeration is a process for getting smaller particles to adhere or stick to each other to form bigger conglomerates/granules or agglomerates. This process ensures a better flow of ingredients, resulting in uniform product quality. Agglomeration technology produces free-flowing particles that dissolve easily, enhancing the sensory experience and convenience for consumers. Microencapsulation is a process of encasing tiny particles or droplets in a coating to form small capsules with useful properties.
The advantage of microencapsulation is that it can be used to encapsulate a wide range of food ingredients for continuous, controlled or targeted delivery. As a technical solution, the preservation of active ingredients in raw materials and foods can be optimized during processing and storage. The technology has an incredibly positive impact on the food industry as it can produce particles that form a physical barrier between loaded compounds and adverse environmental conditions or food substrates. Therefore, microcarriers and nanocarriers can ensure the stability of food ingredients, protect and preserve food ingredients, and avoid possible nutritional loss.
