Innovative Disc Centrifuge System for Single-Cell Protein Separation

Yeast is a microbe that was earlier used by humans with the widest application range. There are about 350 types of yeasts. Each type of yeast can be classified into numerous kinds. Therefore, it can be said that there are thousands of kinds of yeasts. Yeast cells contain a great number of useful substances, which enable them to be widely applied in such industries as food, medicine, biology, cosmetics, etc.

Molasses, a byproduct in the sugar industry, is a good raw material for fermentation as it contains large amounts of fermentable sugars (mainly sucrose). In addition, crude molasses also contains some other ingredients such as sand, calcium, protein, etc., the presence of which will restrain the growth of microbes.

The application of advanced separators, an indispensable part during the molasses processing, can effectively remove most of useless substances in molasses to ensure high profits of the whole fermentation process.
