Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPH027961
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The process permits, in particular, the continuous swelling of granular, starch-containing raw materials under a mechanically increased hydraulic pressure, where particularly good extraction is accomplished by the countercurrent contact of swelling medium and raw material. The countercurrent is produced by a vertical arrangement of the swelling zone and the gravitational forces which thus become effective and allow the relatively heavy raw material to sink downwards against the direction of flow of the swelling medium.
