Process for producing protein product from plants and yeasts
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11957138B2) outlines a novel process for producing a protein product from thin stillage or thin stillage concentrate obtained from plants and yeasts. The process involves several steps, including separating a protein concentrate, diluting it with an aqueous process liquid, controlling temperature and pH, and reacting the mixture to produce a processed protein concentrate. The processed concentrate is then cooled, separated, and dispersed in a solvent to isolate the protein product. The resulting protein product has specific characteristics, including a high crude protein content, solubility in water, low degree of hydrolysis, and a certain molecular weight distribution.
Furthermore, the patent includes additional claims related to the process, such as drying the product phase to isolate the protein product, feeding the thin stillage to an oil separation step, adjusting pH levels during different stages of the process, and using specific solvents like ethanol and water. The protein product obtained through this process is characterized by its high crude protein content, solubility in water, low degree of hydrolysis, specific molecular weight distribution, and oil holding capacity. These unique properties make the protein product suitable for various applications in the food and beverage industry, animal feed production, and other sectors requiring high-quality protein ingredients. Overall, the patented process offers a sustainable and efficient method for producing a protein product with desirable characteristics from plant and yeast-derived sources.
