PRODUCTION OF WHEAT FLOUR CAPABLE OF BEING SUBJECTED TO THE SAME USE AS WHEAT FLOUR, RICE FLOUR AND BUCKWHEAT FLOUR BY UTILIZING WHEAT BRAN

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To effectively produce fine powdery wheat flour by utilizing wheat bran by processing barley or rye to obtain uncracked grains of barley or rye and introducing powdery wheat bran generated in the milling process thereof into a grinder to grind them and also simultaneously grinding fibrous matter such as black striation at this time and screening the obtained powder to obtain wheat flour. ;SOLUTION: Barley or rye to be treated are processed to obtain uncracked grains of barley or rye and the powdery wheat bran generated in the milling process thereof is introduced into a high speed grinder. This high speed grinder has a rotary part constituted of a distributor 3, a plurality of rotors 2 and a partition disc 5 and vortex streams and pressure vibration are generated within the grinder by the rotation of the rotors 2. Wheat bran receives revolving motion along with air in an inlet vortex chamber 9 and is accelerated by the distributor 3 to be equally distributed to a grinding chamber 8. Continuously, wheat bran is ground by vortex steams of air to be discharged from an outlet vortex chamber 10 along with air. In this grinding process, fibrous matter such as black striation is also simultaneously ground and the obtained powder is screened to obtain fine powdery wheat flour.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1997,JPO
