Overview
Soy protein is a popular plant-based protein used in various food applications, from meat alternatives to protein powders and beverages. Producing soy protein requires precise heating to ensure product quality, enhance functionality, and meet food safety standards.
Direct Steam Injection heaters offer an on-demand, efficient solution for the heating needs of soy protein production, delivering the consistency and precision required for high-quality output:
- Preserves nutritional integrity and protein functionality, maintaining soy protein’s structure, solubility, and essential amino acid profile
- Ensures consistent texture and solubility, supporting smooth, clump-free formulations ideal for protein drinks and meat alternatives
- Provides effective pasteurization, achieving target temperatures on-demand for pathogen control while preserving soy protein quality
- Increases production throughput with near-instantaneous heating, enabling faster processing and meeting demand efficiently
- Reduces fouling and lowers maintenance needs, as direct steam injection minimizes residue buildup on heating surfaces
- Enhances energy efficiency for cost savings, with nearly 100% thermal efficiency reducing energy consumption and supporting sustainability
- Improves emulsification for stable, homogenous soy protein blends, ensuring well-dispersed proteins in plant-based milks, shakes, and foods
