Soy Fractionation Pathways For Food Applications

To conclude, we explored the potential of using simplified fractionation and washing process to make novel soy ingredients. The production of less refined ingredients usually involves fewer processing steps, which may reduce energy consumption and increase resource use efficiency. The residual oil in the ingredients can possibly decrease the use level of refined oil in meat analogue formulations. However, the sustainability of the proposed fractionation pathways needs to be further quantified to be able to select the more sustainable process for novel soy-foods like meat analogue. A further step is to extend this research to other oilseeds or legumes.
