Methods for a spray drying system

A method of spray drying plasma from one or more donors using a spray drying disposable device having a spray dry nozzle assembly and a drying chamber, wherein the method comprises steps of:

• i) drying the plasma using the spray drying disposable device, wherein the spray drying disposable device comprises:
• (1) the spray dry nozzle assembly configured for fluid communication with the plasma and with a pressurized aerosol gas that atomizes the plasma entering the drying chamber to obtain atomized plasma droplets, wherein the spray dry nozzle assembly is configured to provide the pressurized aerosol gas in a flow of vortex pattern;
• (2) the drying chamber configured for fluid communication with a drying gas to evaporate the atomized plasma droplets to obtain spray dried plasma.

A method of spray drying a liquid using a spray drying disposable device having a spray dry nozzle assembly and a drying chamber, wherein the method comprises steps of:

• A) drying the liquid using the spray drying disposable device, wherein the spray drying disposable device comprises:
• i) the spray dry nozzle assembly configured for fluid communication with the liquid and with a pressurized aerosol gas that atomizes the liquid entering the drying chamber to obtain atomized liquid droplets, wherein the spray dry nozzle assembly is configured to provide the pressurized aerosol gas in a flow of vortex pattern;
• ii) the drying chamber configured for fluid communication with a drying gas to evaporate the atomized liquid droplets to obtain dried particles, wherein, when in use, the dried particles are captured within the drying chamber.

A method of spray drying a blood component from one or more donors using a spray drying disposable device having a spray dry nozzle assembly and a drying chamber, wherein the method comprises steps of:

• A) drying the blood component using the spray drying disposable device, wherein the spray drying disposable device comprises:
• i) the spray dry nozzle assembly configured for fluid communication with the blood component and with a pressurized aerosol gas that atomizes the blood component entering the drying chamber to obtain atomized blood component droplets;
• ii) the drying chamber configured for fluid communication with a drying gas to evaporate the atomized blood component droplets to obtain a dried blood component, wherein, when in use, the dried blood component is captured within the drying chamber.
