METHOD OF COMPLEX GIRASOL-SUNFLOWER PROCESSING Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC A23L1/214 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a technology for complex vegetables processing. Method provides for girasol-sunflower washing, its grinding, electrocontact heating, extraction with acidified water at the specified parametres of the extraction process, serial passing of extract through membranes with retention threshold of 6-8 kDa and 0.8-2 kDa with return of low molecular fraction at the stage of extraction, concentration of remaining fractions with reverse osmosis, combination of high molecular concentrate fraction with extraction cake to produce gelling concentrate, photosterilisation and packing of remaining concentrate (which is an inulin-containing solution free of related substances) under aseptic conditions.

EFFECT: method makes it possible to provide for complex processing of girasol-sunflower with full utilisation of nutritious and biologically active substances.
