Technical notes
- Automated feeding (screw, vibrating chute or belt) gives steadier output; manual feeding lowers capacity.
- For less dust and more whole granules, combine a suitable screen with reduced speed (frequency inverter).

Citric acid is an organic acid that is a component of all aerobic living organisms – most abundantly, and not surprisingly, in citrus fruits. This weak acid has been used as an additive in processed foods for over 100 years as a preservative, a bitter flavor or an emulsifying agent.
Due to its effective preservative properties, citric acid can be found in most canned and processed foods.
Moinhos Vieira has several customers who use its mills for citric acid grinding.
