20150150295 | METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A POROUS POWDER PRODUCT CONTAINING A PROBIOTIC OR OTHER MICROORGANISMS - The invention proposes a method for the production of a porous powder product containing a microorganism, from a liquid concentrate comprising at least one liquid microorganism culture and a carrier composition, the carrier composition comprising at least one carbohydrate and at least one protein, the method comprising the steps of: i) preparing the liquid concentrate to have both a temperature of between and 40° C. and a viscosity greater than 150 mPa·s; ii) injecting a food grade gas into the prepared concentrate at a pressure greater than 0.3 MPa to intimately incorporate the gas into the liquid concentrate and form a stable foam with a density of between about 0.6 to about 1.2 kg/l; iii) conveying the foam to an atomizing device wherein the pressure of the foam is reduced from 0.3 MPa to atmospheric pressure to provide a partially dried product; and iv) exposing the partially dried product to a drying media to reduce both the moisture content to less than 5% moisture and the water activity to less than 0.25 A | 06-04-2015 |
20130308412 | DEVICE FOR THE CONTINUOUS TREATMENT OF AT LEAST ONE RAW MATERIAL, TREATMENT INSTALLATION AND USE OF SUCH A DEVICE - The continuous treatment device ( | 11-21-2013 |
20110290122 | DEVICE FOR CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION BY EXTRUSION COOKING OF A FOOD PRODUCT CONTAINING WHOLE SOLID PIECES, AND EXTRUSION MACHINE WITH SUCH A DEVICE - A device for continuous production by extrusion cooking of a co-extruded food product containing whole solid pieces, of the type including an extrusion die ( | 12-01-2011 |
20100104718 | METHOD AND EQUIPMENT FOR THE CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION OF A POROUS POWDERED PRODUCT - The present invention relates to a method for producing a powdered porous product from at least one starting powdery and/or viscous product, characterised in that it comprises the continuous following steps without exposing the product to open air: a) preparing the starting product in order to make it viscous; b) in a thermo-mechanical machine ( | 04-29-2010 |
20100104691 | METHOD AND EQUIPMENT FOR THE CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION OF AN EXPANDED FOOD PRODUCT - The invention relates to a method for the continuous production of an expanded edible food product obtained by cooking-extrusion and containing solid inclusions having a size larger than 0.5 mm. | 04-29-2010 |
20080241337 | Method of Preparing a Powdered Product - The invention relates to a method for the continuous production of a powdered product from a product in the liquid state in the form of a solution-, suspension- or emulsion-type mixture in an aqueous medium. According to the invention, during the first step (E1) of the method, the product in the liquid state is transformed into a product in the viscous state. The invention is characterised in that it includes at least one overrun step (E2, E4) and at least one product-drying step (E3, E6) comprising at least a first step (E3) involving thermomechanical treatment with at last one thermomechanical treatment machine into which the viscous state product and a determined amount of powered product from the same family as the liquid state product are injected simultaneously. The treatment machine is configured to mix the viscous state product and the powdered product such as to produce solidified particles of the product upon contact with the ambient air. | 10-02-2008 |
