A model to match every requirement
Raw materials for the process of dry fractionation are, among others, wheat and pulses such as faba beans or peas.
There are two processes available: the standard process with the counter-rotating pin disc mill Contraplex and an ATP air classifier and the precision process with ZPS air classifier mill and as well the ATP air classifier. The goals of the two milling processes are the same: to break the dehulled endosperm of the feed material, e.g. dehulled peas, into its main components – starch and protein – without destroying their structure.
The Contraplex CW II wide-chamber mill is suitable above all for grinding fatty products. The strength of the ZPS classifier mill comes to the fore especially when the final product should be a high protein concentrate.
In the subsequent classification process, an ATP Turboplex classifier separates the ground material into two fractions: a low-protein, coarse fraction and a highly protein-enriched, fine fraction.
Dry protein-enrichment process as an environmentally friendly option
The protein-shifting process makes it possible to produce vegetable proteins as an alternative to animal proteins, thus paving the way for new market opportunities. One further advantage of the dry fractionation process is the high level of sustainability due to the low energy requirement and no need of water in comparison to conventional wet processing. The two processes thus constitute an environmentally compatible process for tapping new protein resources.
