The present disclosure relates to a method for obtaining sugar and lignin fractions from lignocellulosic materials and to a method for producing fermentation products using the sugars obtained from the lignocellulose. The present disclosure also relates to a method for improving the sugar yield in the enzymatic hydrolysate by introducing a pre-treatment step of hydrothermal hydrolysis with a delignification step using a cationic compound.

Method for enriching soluble dietary fibre

A process for fractioning crops by using a combined dry and wet milling and extraction methods, whereby extruding or percussive devices and operating methods are used in the dry milling step, and a thermal treatment, solvent extraction and mechanical treatment, which destroy most of the enzymes, are combined in the first wet milling step.

Process for fractioning crop into industrial raw material

The present invention relates to a beta-glucane enriched grain fiber, and to a process for the preparation of a cellulose-containing, beta-glucane enriched grain fiber, preferably of oats or barley, for use as food or as a raw material or additive in the food industry. In the process, a ground or unground grain such as oats or barley is slurried rapidly in cold water, which may contain an organic solvent. The slurry is homogenized rapidly and is then screened, whereby a beta-glucane containing fiber is obtained.
