Frontia Fiberwash – improving the efficiency of wet corn processing
Frontia® – improving the efficiency of wet corn processing
In 2021, Novozymes, in collaboration with SYMBIO, industrialized new, efficient and transformative starch processing technology called Frontia® at the largest enterprises in the industry
This technology makes it possible to conduct a wet process with an additional increase in the output of starch whilst decreasing the volume of steeping water required and lowering the load on treatment facilities. It also helps decrease energy consumption for evaporation and provides other economic and technological benefits
** An Internal audit is required to understand the economic effects of the deployment of Frontia technology for your specific business
Frontia Fiberwash – improving the efficiency of wet corn processing
- Increase in starch yield (enzymatic release of up to 70% of bound starch and improved leaching of free starch)
- Reduced and stabilized amount of free starch in the pulp fed to the dryer. Solving the problem with carbon deposits and sticking of the product in the dryer and transporters
- Reduced moisture content of the pulp (6-10% lower). At the nominal capacity, the energy consumption of presses and dryers is reduced, which allows to increase the productivity of the enterprise during the period of peak loads
- Reduced grain steeping time (8-10 hours less)
- 100% utilization of all steeping water and reduction of the load on wastewater treatment plants
- Reduced gluten loss
- Fewer dryer stops - increased uptime
- Stabilization of feed quality
Enzymatic separation mechanism
Technology effectiveness manifests itself against the background of the limited possibilities of mechanical separation
Release over 60% of bound starch
15% improved fiber dehydration
Technology launch stages Frontia® Fiberwash
On average, the project will pay-off within 6 to 9 months
