Abstract
Pasteurized liquid whole egg was subjected to spray drying to determine the effect of spray drying conditions on moisture content water activity peroxide value emulsion stability gel texture foaming stability and colour change of the powder product Drying process was carried out in a pilot scale spray dryer Mobile Minor NiroAtomizer Denmark The inlet 165–195 °C and outlet air temperatures 60–80 °C and the atomization pressure 196–392 kPa were investigated as spray drying process variables Perturbation and 3D graphs revealed that outlet air temperature and atomization pressure had more effect than inlet air temperature on the properties of whole egg powder Optimum spray drying conditions of whole egg powder were determined according to the specific endproduct requirements bakery foods omelette and mayonnaise and salad dressing targeting to obtain the desired value of functional properties ie emulsion stability gel texture foaming stability and colour change
