主 题:Single-screw extruder cassava/soybean blends expansion ratio machine throughput trypsin inhibitor reduction
摘 要:In this study,a low-capacity single-screw cooking extruder for the manufacture of expanded snacks was designed based on theoretical models and guided operating data and practices of existing cooking *** was carried out using locally available engineering materials in modest machine shops satisfying sanitary design criteria and tested using blends of cassava and defatted soybean *** extruder developed has throughput,screw speed,barrel diameter,length-to-diameter ratio and power requirement of 13.0 kg/h,200 rpm,40 mm,12 and 1.908 kW,*** cost of the extruder developed was estimated N650,000 in *** had expansion ratio and trypsin inhibitor reduction which ranged from 1.82 to 2.98 and 61.07%to 87.93%,respectively,across all *** study demonstrates that a low-capacity and affordable experimental single-screw extruder can be designed and built domestically which can be scaled-up for pilot and industrial applications for the production of expanded snacks.
