Abstract
AbstractA batter of wheat flour and recirculation water is directly introduced into a hydrocyclone system in which the prime starch is separated and washed out in countercurrent with fresh water. Agglomeration of the gluten takes place spontaneously in the hydrocyclones. The gluten agglomerates come free in the overflow of the system and can be separated easily by screening. The working of the hydrocyclones is not influenced by the presence of the gluten agglomerates. The total waste water stream is approx. 2 m3 per t of processed wheat flour.
