METHOD FOR GRANULATION AND RECYCLING LOW MOISTURE AND HIGH FAT TREATED FOOD PRODUCT Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC A23P1/02 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: treated food product production method envisages compressed air injection into a housing. The housing contains a section in the shape of frustum of cone. The injected air moves downwards through the housing and, having reached the lower end of the housing, flows back upwards and is released from the housing through an outlet hole. The treated food product with a water content of less then 14% (weight) and a lipid content of more then 15% (weight) is injected into the housing, captured by the injected air and milled. Then obtained granulated product is discharged from the lower end of the housing and mixed at least with one other ingredient of the treated food product. Then the treated food product is prepared from them.

EFFECT: invention allows to process the treated food product with a low moisture and a high fat lipids content, to implement a short-duration operation of granulation at one device without moving mechanical parts usage and to use the produced granulated product during treated food products production.
