BNC Biopolymer Development as a Binder-Dewatering Mechanism within One Single Process
FY 2024-25 · 2024-07-15
Summary
This project aims to develop dual-functionality BioNanoCoil (BNC) biopolymers as both binder and dewatering agents in one continuous process in the food and animal food processing industry. By combining these two functions into a single process, BNC prevents excessive decay in the feed line, enhances the process water efficiency, and reduces operational costs, while the traditional methods often require separate processes for binding and dewatering, which can be more energy-consuming, labor-intensive, and costly. This project can represent a significant advancement in second-grade food processing industries.

Description (French)
Ce projet vise à développer des biopolymères BioNanoCoil (BNC) à double fonction, à la fois comme liant et comme agent de déshydratation dans un processus continu dans l’industrie de transformation des aliments et des aliments pour animaux. En combinant ces deux fonctions en un seul processus, les BNC empêchent une décomposition excessive dans la ligne d’alimentation, améliorent l’efficacité de l’eau de traitement et réduisent les coûts d’exploitation, alors que les méthodes traditionnelles nécessitent souvent des processus séparés pour la liaison et la déshydratation, ce qui peut être plus énergivore, plus laborieux et plus coûteux. Ce projet peut représenter une avancée significative dans les industries de transformation des aliments de second choix.
