METHOD FOR UTILIZING OF FOOD WASTES WITH HIGH MOISTURE CONTENT Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: utilization of wastes of agricultural complex enterprises, may be used in utilization of high moisture content perishable food wastes.

SUBSTANCE: method involves mixing grain wastes and distillery dregs to moisture content of from 24% to 28% and extruding through die equipped with at least one spinneret; cooling mixture and drying in flow of air blown through extrudate layer; providing required moisture content by altering share of grain wastes. Air temperature may be lower or higher than ambient air temperature. Method provides for increased shelf life due to reduced moisture content of product owing to joint usage of conductive heat exchange, cooling and drying to moisture content lower than critical value allowing product to be canned.

EFFECT: increased efficiency and prolonged storage life of high moisture content food wastes.
