Abstract

A spray dryer with which a fluid that has been subjected to a fluid processing in a spray device can be directly sprayed from the spray device into a drying chamber so that the fluid can be dried, without the need for a dispersion machine for adjusting the dispersion state of a dispersion solution to be sprayed into the drying chamber. The spray dryer includes a spray device. The spray device includes processing surfaces disposed opposing each other, and a rotation mechanism that rotates at least one of the processing surfaces relative to the other. The processing surfaces define a circular flow path through which is passed a fluid to be processed containing a first fluid and a second fluid. The circular flow path includes introduction ports. A first introduction port introduces, at an opening which connects to the circular flow path, the first fluid from the inside of the circular flow path. A second introduction port opens in the middle of the circular flow path, and combines the second fluid with the first fluid which has been constrained into a thin-film fluid by the processing surfaces. The fluid to be processed is subjected to fluid processing between the processing surfaces, and the fluid-treated fluid is sprayed to the outside from between the processing surfaces.

Abstract

A method for modifying a fine particle dispersion liquid with which dispersibility and dispersion stability can be improved includes performing filtration to remove impurities in a dispersion liquid using a dispersion liquid modifying device provided with a removal unit that uses a filtration membrane. The quantity of impurities is reduced from a first region until said quantity reaches a second pH-dependent region. In the second pH-dependent region, the dispersibility of the fine particles in the dispersion liquid is in a range in which the dispersibility depends more on a change in dispersion liquid pH than on a change in the quantity of impurities in the dispersion liquid. With the quantity of impurities reduced to the second pH-dependent region, the dispersibility of the fine particles is controlled by adjusting the pH of the fine particle dispersion liquid.

Abstract

The present invention provides a forced thin film-type flow reactor that, in addition to a pressure balance mechanism with which it is possible to set and adjust the clearance between processing surfaces using pressure balancing, is provided with a clearance adjustment mechanism that allows the clearance to be set and adjusted by an alternative means. The flow reactor processes a fluid for processing by passing the fluid for processing between a first processing surface and a second processing surface disposed so as to be capable of moving towards and away from each other, and the flow reactor comprises a pressure balancing mechanism and a mechanical clearance mechanism. The pressure balancing mechanism forms a minuscule first clearance by providing pressure balance between the pressure applied by the fluid for processing, which acts in the direction in which the first processing surface and the second processing surface move away from each other, and a force produced by a back pressure mechanism, which acts in the direction in which the first processing surface and the second processing surface move towards each other. The mechanical clearance mechanism mechanically sets a second clearance, which is greater than the first clearance, and makes it possible to set the clearance irrespective of the pressure of the fluid for processing.

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a method for efficiently producing uniform microparticles of curcumin and/or γ-oryzanol at a higher yield. The target microparticles are produced by dissolving a starting material in a solvent to give a starting material solution and then subjecting the starting material solution to crystallization by a poor solvent method to thereby deposit the starting material. To prepare the starting material solution, curcumin and/or γ-oryzanol are used as the starting material(s) and ethanol is used as the solvent. The starting material(s) and the solvent are stirred in a pressurized state at a temperature of 78.3-130°C inclusive to give the starting material solution. Then, the starting material solution thus obtained is subjected to crystallization by the poor solvent method and thus the target microparticles are produced.
