An apparatus and method for microwave vacuum-drying of temperature- sensitive biological materials on a continuous flow-through basis, in which the materials are frozen, ground to frozen particles, dehydrated to a powder, and the powder collected. The apparatus (10) has a microwave generator (12) and waveguide (14), a freezing chamber (46) with a grinder (52), a rotatable dehydration chamber (18) in or adjacent to the waveguide, and a powder collector (82) to receive the powdered biological material. The apparatus operates under reduced pressure provided by a vacuum system (92) coupled to the powder collector (82).

L'invention porte sur un appareil et un procédé pour le séchage sous vide par des micro-ondes de matières biologiques sensibles à la température sur une base d'écoulement en renouvellement continu, suivant lequel les matières sont congelées, broyées en particules congelées, déshydratées en une poudre et la poudre est recueillie. L'appareil (10) comprend un générateur de micro-ondes (12) et un guide d'ondes (14), une chambre de congélation (46) dotée d'un broyeur (52), une chambre de déshydratation apte à tourner (18) dans le guide d'ondes ou adjacente à celui-ci et un collecteur de poudre (82) pour recevoir la matière biologique pulvérisée. L'appareil fonctionne sous pression réduite fournie par un système de vide (92) couplé au collecteur de poudre (82).
