High value micron-sized particles from a novel antisolvent vapour spray drying system. Convective antisolvent precipitation is a novel route in producing particles from spray drying by adding an anti-solvent to the drying medium. This project will allow conventional spray dryers to produce more sophisticated ultrafine and encapsulated particles for use in food, pharmaceuticals and other high value applications.
