Characterization of Distillers<br />

Grains<br />

Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles is the<br />

product obtained after removal of alcohol<br />

by distillation from yeast fermentation of<br />

a grain or grain mixture and drying the<br />

resultant whole stillage.<br />

100 kg of corn fermented produces:<br />

36 liters of ethanol<br />

32 kg of DDGS<br />

32 kg of carbon dioxide<br />

Air Drying<br />

Wet cake spread thinly on<br />

trays inside drying chamber<br />

Drying for about 6 hours at<br />

50°C<br />

Initial moisture ~ 70%<br />

14


Drum Drying<br />

• Rotating drum heated<br />

internally with steam<br />

• Slurry is poured onto<br />

the drum<br />

• Dried product is<br />

removed by scrapping<br />

15


Freeze Drying<br />

• Based on sublimation<br />

(solid to gas)<br />

• Wet material is placed<br />

on trays in the drying<br />

chamber<br />

Thin Stillage<br />

• Liquid part of whole stillage<br />

• Rich source of soluble protein & fibre<br />

• Generally concentrated & added back to<br />

distillers grains (DDGS)<br />

Development of Food Products<br />

with Distillers Grains<br />

Incorporate ethanol co-products<br />

into a variety of food products –<br />

cookies, bars, crackers and<br />

confectionary product<br />

Identify the maximum levels<br />

Assess the effect on the product’s<br />

sensory & nutritional properties<br />

Optimize the product formulations<br />

31


DDGS – Rye/Pumpernickel Bread<br />

• ~ 6% DDGS (total formula)<br />

• ~ 11% DDGS (flour replacement)<br />

• 4g of fiber per 50g serving<br />

• Allows for “High in Fiber” label claim<br />

• Scaled up formula to 16 x 1 lb loaves<br />

32


Summary<br />

DDGS from wheat-based ethanol is suitable for<br />

food applications including functional foods and<br />

nutraceuticals<br />

Products developed had acceptable sensory<br />

attributes and enhanced nutritional qualities<br />

Thin stillage can also be processed into high<br />

quality food ingredients<br />

For DDGS to have a future in the food industry,<br />

ethanol plants must bear GMPs in mind during<br />

construction<br />
