INTRODUCTION
Freeze drying is the process in which water is removed from a product after it is frozen and placed under a vacuum allowing the ice to change directly from solid to vapour without passing through a liquid phase.
Freeze Drying preserves the integrity of the product’s biological and chemical structure and activity.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Origin – From INCA EMPIRE
Modern invention – vacuum technology invention in 1909
Maxwell House – commercial use for retaining flavour of coffee and to make delivery process easier in 1963
NASA – preservation of food for astronauts
Modern use – from 1980’s companies began to preserve herbs ,vegetables ,beverages and other food items.

WHY WE USE FREEZE DRYING
Removing water keeps food from spoiling for a long period of time
Freeze drying significantly reduces the weight of the food
![Page 7: Freeze drying slide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081416/55ce219bbb61ebac358b46c6/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
PHASES OF FREEZE DRYING
Freeze drying process consist of three phases
freezing
primary drying
secondary drying
![Page 8: Freeze drying slide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081416/55ce219bbb61ebac358b46c6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
FREEZING
During the freezing phase the goal is to freeze the mobile water of the product
The rate of cooling will influence the structure of the frozen matrix
![Page 9: Freeze drying slide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081416/55ce219bbb61ebac358b46c6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
PRIMARY DRYING
In this phase the chamber pressure is reduced and heat is applied to cause the frozen mobile water to sublime
It is important to control the drying rate and heating rate during this phase
![Page 10: Freeze drying slide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081416/55ce219bbb61ebac358b46c6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
SECONDARY DRYING
The length of the secondary drying process will be determined by the product
The water content may be carefully controlled
![Page 11: Freeze drying slide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081416/55ce219bbb61ebac358b46c6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
COMPONENTS
Mainly the freeze dryer consists of 3 parts
• Freeze drying chamber
• Refrigeration coils
• Vacuum pump
![Page 12: Freeze drying slide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081416/55ce219bbb61ebac358b46c6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
![Page 13: Freeze drying slide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081416/55ce219bbb61ebac358b46c6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
WORKING PRINCIPLE
Place the material to be preserved on the shelf when it is still unfrozen.
Seal the chamber and process begins.
Compressor lowers the temp and freezes the material and water is seperated.
Vacuum pump forces air out of chamber and lowers the atmospheric pressure to 0.06 atm.
![Page 14: Freeze drying slide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081416/55ce219bbb61ebac358b46c6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
WORKING (Contd…)
Small heat applied for ice to change phase.
Due to low pressure ice turns directly to water vapour and it flows out of chamber.
Water vapour condenses in freezing coil to solid ice.
Process continues till material dries out.
![Page 15: Freeze drying slide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081416/55ce219bbb61ebac358b46c6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
WORKING (Contd…)
Sublimation process accelerated to avoid overheating.
Once dried sufficiently – sealed in moisture free packages.
As long as package is secure it can sit without degrading for years and years.
![Page 16: Freeze drying slide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081416/55ce219bbb61ebac358b46c6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
ADVANTAGES
Preserves color, taste, shape.
Easy to transport.
Last long.
Easy packing.
Provide high quality product.
![Page 17: Freeze drying slide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081416/55ce219bbb61ebac358b46c6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
DISADVANTAGES
Increased handling and processing time.
Very costlier process.
Fire hazards if the chamber is not in proper vacuum, while heater is on.

In pharmaceutical companies.
Food industries.
In flower industries.
For protecting old books.

CONCLUSION
The process is much cheaper for pharmaceuticals.
Cost mainly depends on engineering skills and techniques.
Quality of the product is very high.
