1,164,986. Preparing thiogluoside-free oilseed meals. CANADIAN PATENTS & DEVELOPMENT Ltd. 13 Feb., 1968 [21 Feb., 1967], No. 7124/68. Headings A2B and A2Q. In a process for treating oilseeds of the Cruciferae family, which seeds contain thioglucosides and not more than 2%, by weight of progoitrin, such as rape seeds and seeds of the Summer turnip, Brassica juncia (mustard) and Brassica campestris, to produce a proteinaceous meal, which is substantially free from thioglucosides and contains not more than 0.5%, by weight, of hydroxynitriles, and may be used in animal feeds, the oilseeds are subjected to conventional crushing, dry-cooking, oil-removing and, optionally, drying operations, and the resulting de-oiled meal having a moisture content of at least 15%, e.g. between 15 and 40%, by weight, is subjected to catalytic treatment with an iron and/or copper compound, at a temperature between 200‹ and 275‹ F., to decompose the thioglucosides. Between 0.01 and 0.4% of the iron and/or copper compound, computed as iron and/or copper on the weight of the meal, may be used. The iron and/or copper compound may be a water-soluble salt, e.g. selected from: ferrous sulphate, ferric chloride and copper sulphate, which water-soluble salt may be added to the de-oiled meal in the form of the dry salt or an aqueous solution. The catalytic treatment of the meal may be effected in a stack-cooker comprising: a series of superimposed, steam-jacketed, cylindrical, steel kettles, rotatable stirrers in each kettle and automatically-operated gates for controlling downward flow of meal through the stack of kettles, the top kettle being provided with controlled spray jets, through which water and/or live steam may be sprayed, and each of the lower, e.g. drying, kettles being provided with a discharge pipe for excess water or aqueous condensate. The resulting meal may be dried, in air, to attain a moisture content of 10%, by weight. |
