Technical Document
Brief Overview
Corn gluten meal is the main protein extracted from maize endosperm. It is one among the byproducts of wet milling corn, along with corn oil and starch. Corn gluten meal is a common source of protein for animal feed, with a protein content of around 65%. Corn gluten meal is also utilized in agriculture.Method of Production The most common process for making corn gluten meal is wet-milling.
Manufacturing Process
Method of Production The most common process for making corn gluten meal is wet-milling. In this process, water impregnated with sulfur dioxide is used to soak corn grains first. To remove the endosperm and germ, the mixture is next coarsely crushed. After that, the starch and gluten are separated from the maize fiber by grinding and screening the endosperm. Ultimately, centrifuging the starch and gluten separates them into their constituent parts.
