High value of feed and food and new technological maize- and soybean-based products

Abstract

The studies and research on the maize and soybean utilisation improvement performed at the Department of Technology have been directed to creating new assortment of qualitative plant food and feed and technological products. In order to achieve this contemporary technical and technological processing procedures with relatively low consumption of energy resources, water, labour and without chemicals have been applied. As a result of previous scientific and research work, technologies of making and producing the following products have been developed: celgran, mikro-ex soya, enbel-18 and other micronised and extruded products of maize, soybean and other cereals. Contemporary technical and technological procedures of maize and soybean processing have been discussed in previously published papers, while this paper presents, in detail and cumulatively, results of previous long-term scientific and research work, i.e. presents actual, new products of high values intended for the market. Besides, a brief review of basic principles of applied technologies and a retrospect of the situation and prospective of processing development of these two field crops very important not only in our country, but also world-wide, are presented in the paper.

Istraživački rad na unapređenju upotrebe i prerade kukuruza i soje u Odseku za tehnološka istraživanja usmeren je ka stvaranju novog asortimana kvalitetne biljne hrane i tehničkih proizvoda primenom savremenih tehničko-tehnoloških postupaka prerade sa relativno malom potrošnjom energenata, vode, rada i bez hemikalija. Kao rezultat dosadašnjeg naučno-istraživačkog rada razrađene su tehnologije proizvodnje i dobijanja novih proizvoda: celgran, mikro-ex soja, enbel-18 i drugi mikronizovani i ekstrudovani proizvodi od kukuruza, soje i drugog zrnevlja. U većem broju ranije objavljenih radova diskutovani su savremeni tehničko-tehnološki procesi prerade kukuruza i soje, dok su u ovom radu detaljno opisani i zbirno prikazani dosadašnji rezultati višegodišnjeg naučno-istraživačkog rada, odnosno konkretni novi visokovredni proizvodi namenjeni tržištu. Pored toga, dat je i veoma kratak prikaz osnovnih principa primenjenih tehnologija i osvrt na stanje i perspektive razvoja prerade ove dve veoma važne ratarske kulture u našoj zemlji i u svetu.
