Method for the Manufacture of Larger Particle Forms of Low Sodium Salts

摘要

A method for producing a low sodium salt composition, including aspects for producing fraction(s) of a selectable particle size is provided. Millable particles can be produced. The method does not require agglomeration to obtain larger-sized solids. The composition generally includes salt, such as sodium chloride, and one or more crystallization interrupters. The composition is in the form of amorphous particles, optionally in combination with other ingredients.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
providing an aqueous solution that includes sodium chloride and a crystallization interrupter selected from among nonionic biopolymers and biooligomers; and conduction drying the aqueous solution to cause the biopolymer and sodium chloride to form a dried product, where at least a majority of the sodium chloride is present in an amorphous form, and recovering the dried product.
