Mushroom Powder Dispersion Case
A food-material processing reference for reducing the particle size of a mushroom powder system.
Application Goal
The supplied powder had a broad particle-size distribution before treatment. The target was a finer, more uniform powder system for downstream food-material processing.
Material and Challenge
PT-20 is a reasonable laboratory starting point for process trials. Final selection should consider solids loading, target distribution, and cleanability requirements.
Recommended Equipment
The available records include process video and independent particle-size reports taken before and after treatment. The reports do not state the pressure or number of passes.
Process Outline
The reported D50 decreased from 208.7 μm to 16.68 μm, representing a 92.0% reduction. The reported D90 decreased from 460.6 μm to 42.37 μm, and the reported volume mean diameter D[4,3] decreased from 58.26 μm to 11.61 μm.
