The invention concerns a process for the manufacture of a powder containing
crystalline particles of maltitol, which includes continuously mixing
maltitol syrup having a dry matter content of at least 70% by weight and a
maltitol content of at least 85% by weight on a dry matter basis, the
mixing being effected by simultaneously dispersing the maltitol syrup and
maltitol containing seeds into an open rotating receptacle containing
maltitol based granules whereby the maltitol syrup and maltitol containing
seeds are mixed at the surface of the maltitol based granules contained in
the receptacle, collecting maltitol based granules from the receptacle and
crystallizing maltitol contained in said granules, the maltitol based
granules in the receptacle being maintained in motion by the rotation of
the receptacle.
De uitvinding betreft een proces voor de vervaardiging van een poeder dat kristallijne deeltjes van maltitol bevat, die in gewicht onophoudelijk het mengen van maltitol stroop omvat die een droge stofinhoud van minstens 70% en een maltitol inhoud van minstens 85% in gewicht op een droge stofbasis heeft, mengen die door gelijktijdig de maltitol stroop en maltitol wordt uitgevoerd te verspreiden die zaden bevatten in een open roterende vergaarbak die maltitol gebaseerde korrels bevatten waardoor de maltitol stroop en maltitol die zaden bevatten worden gemengd aan de oppervlakte van de maltitol gebaseerde korrels in de vergaarbak die, die maltitol gebaseerde korrels van de vergaarbak verzamelen en maltitol kristalliseren in bovengenoemde korrels, de maltitol gebaseerde korrels die in de vergaarbak binnen worden gehandhaafd f maltitol, which includes continuously mixing maltitol syrup having a dry matter content of at least 70% by weight and a maltitol content of at least 85% by weight on a dry matter basis, the mixing being effected by simultaneously dispersing the maltitol syrup and maltitol containing seeds into an open rotating receptacle containing maltitol based granules whereby the maltitol syrup and maltitol containing seeds are mixed at the surface of the maltitol based granules contained in the receptacle, collecting maltitol based granules from the receptacle and crystallizing maltitol contained in said granules, the maltitol based granules in the receptacle being maintained in motion by the omwenteling van de vergaarbak.
