Spray freeze-drying is generally carried out by transferring the frozen particles to trays, bottles or fixed beds in a freeze-dryer after spray freezing is completed. However, the drying efficiency is low due to poor integration of the apparatus, and other technical problems such as discontinuity of the spray freeze-drying process or difficulty in process scale-up are also caused. In addition, the inconvenience of cryogenic liquid handling needs to be addressed. The invention is an integrated spray freeze drying device, the process is continuous, low-temperature liquid does not need to be processed, the drying speed can be effectively improved, and the device has important significance for the production of high value-added food, medicines and biological products.

Patent CN 102226629a proposes a fluidized bed spray freeze drying device, which couples fluidization, cold spray coating, drying separation processes, and can make atomization, freezing, drying, and separation completed in the same equipment. However, the patent needs to be filled with refrigerants such as liquid nitrogen, dry ice and the like, and low-temperature and low-humidity gas needs to be continuously filled for cocurrent flowing, so that the load of a heat exchange system is increased.
Patent CN 201293522 proposes that a spray freeze-drying powder-making device using low-temperature low-dew-point gas consists of a box body, a fluidized bed, an atomizer and a bag-type dust remover. The device uses low-temperature low-dew-point gas to directly prepare the liquid to be dried into ice powder without using liquid nitrogen and other refrigerants. However, the device still needs to continuously introduce the drying gas for a long time, which causes higher energy consumption of unit product.
Patent CN 101713607A proposes a device for preparing powder by decompression spray freeze drying, which mainly comprises a box body, a jacket, an atomizer and a vacuum pump. However, the patent only designs the drying chamber, and the degree of integration of the equipment is low.
