Corn Steep Liquor Powder
Corn steep liquor is a by-product of corn starch processing plant. Its nutritional components include soluble protein, lactic acid (LA), sugar and starch, and it is rich in a variety of amino acids, minerals, trace elements and vitamins. Usually, the corn starch plant will concentrate the corn slurry to a certain concentration by evaporator, and then mix it with the recovered corn protein and coarse and fine residues, and then dry it with tube bundle dryer. The finished product can be used as animal feed.
The internal composition of corn steep liquor dry powder is the same as that of corn steep liquor, but the water content is low. Because the product is a powdery solid, it is easy to transport, store and use, and the product is not easy to deteriorate and easy to use. corn steep liquor powder can be obtained by drying corn steep liquor in spray drying tower with low temperature heating.
However, in the process of spraying corn steep liquor powder, due to the high temperature in the drying part, the part of corn steep liquor close to the high-temperature pipeline will be carbonized or coking, thus turning brown black or brown yellow. At the same time, the higher the content of this component, the more serious of the coking phenomenon. However, the coked protein is not soluble in water and has no nutritional value. Microorganisms and animals cannot use this coked protein. Therefore, in the process of preparing corn steep liquor dry powder with spray drying tower, attention must be paid to prevent carbonization. Secondly, the dry powder of corn steep liquor is easy to absorb moisture, agglomerate and even block.
Packaging requirements for corn steep liquor powder:
It is packed in three layers. The outer bag is a film woven bag and the inner bag is a two-layer plastic bag. It will not absorb moisture during storage and is not easy to agglomerate during storage
