Protein Extraction
Whether soy protein concentrate or isolate, in the
interests of constant product quality and quantity
as well as installation hygiene the installations are
equipped with continuously operating decanters
and separators due to the high solids concentration.
This is because optimized protein recovery is
associated with low fresh water consumption. And
this also results in a significant reduction in the
volume of waste water. The installation features
a high degree of automation, and the capacity
is generally designed for the operating capacity
of the main elements in order to guarantee costeffectiveness and rational production in conjunction
with high quality and yield.

and the proteins have been extracted from the
