Analysis of Heat Transfer Fouling by Thin Stillage From Dry Grind Corn Processing Facilities
… by thin stillage from a commercial dry grind corn (DGC) process used to produce ethanol from corn. Thin stillage is a DGC process stream consisting primarily of unfermented dissolved solids that are concentrated by evaporators to produce an animal food. Evaporator fouling is costly in DGC …

Production of Zein From Dry Milled Corn by Solvent Extraction and Ultrafiltration
… developed here can be easily integrated into any corn processing facility, especially dry-grind ethanol plants. The solvent extraction step involves only mixing and a filtration/centrifugation step. The filtered extract, after further treatment if necessary to improve protein purity, can be …

Evaluating the potential for improving anaerobic digestion of cellulosic waste via routine bioaugmentation and alkaline pretreatment
… process for treating the residuals from sweet corn processing, which have a significant lignocellulosic fraction as well as some starch from the base of the kernels. The two-phase anaerobic digestion process was proposed as one component of a larger integrated anaerobic/aerobic waste treatment …

Evaluation and modification of processing techniques for recovery of anthocyanins from colored corn
… sensory properties of food and beverages. The processing industry commonly uses artificial food colorants derived from petroleum or coal, called coal tar dyes. These dyes may cause attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, genotoxicity, neurotoxicity and/or carcinogenicity. In an era of …

Optimum plant density for crowding stress tolerant processing sweet corn in the Upper Midwest
Advances in grain yield of field corn (Zea mays L.) over the last quarter century have been driven in large part by the ability of modern hybrids to better tolerate higher plant densities (i.e., crowding stress) than their predecessors. Yield gains in processing sweet corn, however, pale in …

Effects of compositional variables on fouling behavior of thin stillage
In the US, ethanol is produced primarily from corn. There are two major commercial processes: corn wet milling (CWM) and dry grind corn (DGC). The DGC industry has grown and made 86% of corn ethanol by the end of 2008. During DGC processing, after distillation, the remaining nonfermentable material …

Characterization of chemical composition, milling properties and carbon dioxide diffusivity resulting from early harvest corn and corn stover
The increasing demand of corn as food and fuel sources has increased the competition for feedstock between livestock and ethanol industries. Developing an effective corn harvesting, storage and utilization system can help reduce the competition for the limited corn supply in the current period. The …

Evaluating the effect of dietary changes and management strategies to feedlot cattle during the adaptation and finishing phase on performance, carcass characteristics and the rumen microbiome
… are consuming the finishing diet, different processing methods of grains such as grinding and ensiling have been utilized to change the availability of starch to be digested. Different processing methods can also alter the site of starch digestion to some extent. The high starch …

Heterosis in compositional, physical, and wet-milling characteristics of hybrids from exotic introgressed by adapted inbred lines in corn
<p>Corn (Zea Mays L.) is one of the most important cereal crops in the world and the main crop in the United States. Starch is the most abundant component of the corn kernels and the most valuable fraction recovered by wet milling of corn. The amount wet milled from a sample is an indication of the …
