Evolution of freeze drying.
During Tremondous requirement of dried
world war II blood plasma and serum as a blood
substitute for military.used in
canada,USA & ENGLAND
The freeze drying process came as the alternative method for drying
and saved the valualbel plasma and saved the life of many soilders.
Evolution of freeze drying.
Thus the frozen dried plasma gave the frist graphic account of utility

Operation of freezedryer
❚ The freezing stage involves the solution to
a temperature well below its lowest
eutetic temperature untill it is completely
frozen. Freezing of the solution is most
conventially accompalised in the chamber
to be employed for drying, by placing the
filled vials on the shelf that is cooled by
the circulating refrigerant.
❚ Primary drying stage involves the
sublimation of ice from the product. This is
usually accomplaised by a reduction of the
pressure of the drying chamberand by the
Operation of freezedryer
❚ Secondary drying stage involves the
removal of adsorbed water from the
frozen product . This is the water which
did not as a ice during freezing and so did
not sublime. To accomplish the removal of
this water the product temperature is
usually raised and the chamber pressure
reduced further. The product is usually
processed until there is less than 1%
moisture left in the dried product.
