Suivant une forme de réalisation avantageuse de l'invention, le produit se présente sous la forme de morceaux blancs, durs et aérés dont la densité est de l'ordre de 0,3 à 0,7. De sorte que ce produit sucrant a la forme et l'aspect des morceaux de saccharose habituels à haut pouvoir énergétique, ce qui présente un avantage non négigeable par rapport aux édulcorants qui sont généralement conditionnés sous forme de pastilles, de tablettes du type médicament, ou de poudres.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the product is in the form of white, hard and airy pieces whose density is of the order of 0.3 to 0.7. So that this sweetening product has the form and the appearance of the usual pieces of sucrose with high energy power, which has a non-negligible advantage compared to the sweeteners which are generally packaged in the form of lozenges, tablets of the drug type, or powders.

L'invention a encore pour objet un procédé pour la fabrication du produit sucrant précité.The invention also relates to a process for the production of the above-mentioned sweetening product.

Suivant l'invention, ce procédé consiste, pour réaliser le produit sucrant sous la forme de morceaux blancs, durs et aérés à dissoudre dans de l'eau l'édulcorant, à mélanger cette solution au sucre, la quantité d'eau étant choisie pour que le mélange comprenne 80 à 88 % de matières sèches, à dissoudre ledit mélange à une température comprise entre 150 et 220°C, à évaporer et à mener cette concentration de façon à abaisser la température, à ajouter à ce dernier, lorsque la température est inférieure à 130°C, l'acide organique alimentaire et le bicarbonate, à malaxer le tout intimement, à une pression sensiblement égale à la pression atmosphérique, à mouler la pâte obtenue en la laissant couler librement dans des moules préchauffés à une température de l'ordre de 80°C, à débarasser les moules de l'excédent de pâte, à sécher rapidement les moules et leur contenu, à démouler les morceaux formés et partiellement séchés et enfin à sécher complètement les morceaux à une température comprise entre 30 et 35°C.According to the invention, this process consists, to produce the sweetening product in the form of white, hard and aerated pieces to dissolve in water the sweetener, to mix this solution with the sugar, the quantity of water being chosen for that the mixture comprises 80 to 88% of dry matter, dissolving said mixture at a temperature between 150 and 220 ° C, evaporating and carrying out this concentration so as to lower the temperature, to add to the latter, when the temperature is lower than 130 ° C., the organic food acid and the bicarbonate, to knead the whole intimately, at a pressure substantially equal to atmospheric pressure, to mold the paste obtained by letting it flow freely in molds preheated to a temperature of around 80 ° C, to rid the molds of excess dough, to quickly dry the molds and their contents, to unmold the pieces formed and partially dried and finally to completely dry the pieces at a temperature e between 30 and 35 ° C.

L'invention a enfin pour objet une installation pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé susdit.The invention finally relates to an installation for implementing the above method.

D'autre détails et particularités de l'invention ressortiront de la description du dessin annexé au présent mémoire et qui illustre, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, le procédé et l'installation précités.Other details and particularities of the invention will emerge from the description of the drawing appended to this memo and which illustrates, by way of non-limiting example, the aforementioned process and installation.

Le dessin est une vue en élévation schématique, avec brisures partielles, illustrant lesdits procédé et installation.The drawing is a schematic elevation view, partially broken, illustrating said process and installation.

Le produit sucrant, suivant l'invention, est constitué par un mélange de sucre tel que du saccharose et d'un édulcorant à haut pouvoir sucrant. Comme le pouvoir édulcorant de ce dernier produit est souvent de l'ordre de 150 à 300 fois plus élevé, à poids égal, que celui du saccharose et que sa valeur énergétique est pratiquement nulle, le produit sucrant obtenu a, pour le même pouvoir édulcorant, une valeur énergétique qui est inférieure de 80 % à 85 % à celui du saccharose.The sweetening product, according to the invention, consists of a mixture of sugar such as sucrose and a sweetener with high sweetening power. As the sweetening power of this latter product is often of the order of 150 to 300 times higher, for equal weight, than that of sucrose and that its energy value is practically zero, the sweetening product obtained has, for the same sweetening power , an energy value which is 80% to 85% lower than that of sucrose.

Un édulcorant qui donne des résultats particulièrement intéressants, en combinaison avec le saccharose, est un édulcorant artificiel constitué par de l'acésulfame potassium de la société Hoechst, connu sous le nom d'Acesulfame K.A sweetener which gives particularly interesting results, in combination with sucrose, is an artificial sweetener consisting of acesulfame potassium from the company Hoechst, known as Acesulfame K.

Pour que ce produit sucrant, par exemple sous forme de poudre, ait un goût pratiquement identique à celui du sucre normal, le mélange susdit comprend, en poids, de 94 % à 96,5 % de saccharose.In order for this sweetening product, for example in powder form, to have a taste practically identical to that of normal sugar, the above-mentioned mixture comprises, by weight, from 94% to 96.5% of sucrose.

Ce mélange comprend, pour permettre d'obtenir un produit sucrant qui présente l'aspect volumineux et plus ou moins aéré des morceaux de saccharose traditionnels, de 94 % à 96,5 % en poids, de saccharose, 3 % à 5,5 %, en poids, d'acésulfame potassium, 0,3 %, en poids, d'acide organique alimentaire, 0,4 %, en poids, de bicarbonate et de l'eau dont la quantité est telle que le produit final contient au maximum O,1 %, en poids, d'eau. Ledit mélange permet d'obtenir un produit sucrant final de densité comprise entre 0,6 et 0,7, dont les morceaux, pour avoir le même pouvoir édulcorant que les sucres traditionnels, ont un poids compris entre 0,6 et 1,1 g, un volume de l'ordre de 1 cm3 à 1,5 cm3, un pH en solution qui varie entre 6 et 7, le pouvoir énergétique de chacun de ces morceaux étant de l'ordre de 2 à 4 kcal.This mixture comprises, in order to obtain a sweetening product which has the bulky and more or less airy appearance of the pieces of traditional sucrose, from 94% to 96.5% by weight, of sucrose, 3% to 5.5% , by weight, of acesulfame potassium, 0.3%, by weight, of organic food acid, 0.4%, by weight, of bicarbonate and water whose quantity is such that the final product contains at most 0.1% by weight of water. Said mixture makes it possible to obtain a final sweetening product with a density of between 0.6 and 0.7, the pieces of which, for having the same sweetening power as traditional sugars, have a weight of between 0.6 and 1.1 g. , a volume of the order of 1 cm 3 to 1.5 cm 3 , a pH in solution which varies between 6 and 7, the energy power of each of these pieces being of the order of 2 to 4 kcal.

Le procédé pour obtenir le produit sucrant sous la forme de morceaux blancs, durs et aérés consiste à dissoudre dans de l'eau l'acésulfate potassium dont le pourcentage en poids, dans le mélange susdit, est compris entre 3 % et 5,5 %. On mélange à cette solution, en 1, le saccharose dont la granulométrie se situe entre 0,22 et 0,50 mm et qui est de préférence du saccharose raffiné. La quantité d'eau est calculée pour obtenir de 80 % à 88 % de matières sèches. Le saccharose et l'acésulfame potassium sont dissous, en 2, à une température de 150 à 220°C. On évapore ensuite, en 3, une grande partie de l'eau du mélange, sous pression atmosphérique, afin d'obtenir une teneur en matières sèches de 87 % à 96 %. Cette concentration est menée de façon à amener la température en dessous de 130°C avant d'ajouter à la solution, en 4 et en 5, l'acide organique alimentaire et le bicarbonate. Il est impératif de neutraliser le plus rapidement possible le mélange après l'addition de l'acide et du bicarbonate, afin d'éviter une coloration et/ou une inversion du saccharose. L'acide organique, par exemple de l'acide citrique, est préalablement mis en solution, en 6, dans de l'eau jusqu'à l'obtention d'une solution dont la concentration, en poids, est de 50 % et dont le pH est 0,5. Le bicarbonate est prémélangé, en 7, avec du saccharose raffiné très fin. Le rapport bicarbonate-saccharose peut varier en fonction de la quantité de sucre nécessaire au grenage de la masse après évaporation.The process for obtaining the sweetening product in the form of white, hard and aerated pieces consists in dissolving in potassium acesulfate in water whose percentage by weight, in the above-mentioned mixture, is between 3% and 5.5% . One mixes with this solution, in 1, the sucrose whose granulometry is between 0.22 and 0.50 mm and which is preferably refined sucrose. The amount of water is calculated to obtain 80% to 88% dry matter. The sucrose and acesulfame potassium are dissolved, in 2, at a temperature of 150 to 220 ° C. A large part of the water in the mixture is then evaporated in 3, under atmospheric pressure, in order to obtain a dry matter content of 87% to 96%. This concentration is carried out so as to bring the temperature below 130 ° C. before adding to the solution, in 4 and in 5, the edible organic acid and the bicarbonate. It is imperative to neutralize the mixture as soon as possible after the addition of the acid and bicarbonate, in order to avoid staining and / or inversion of sucrose. The organic acid, for example citric acid, is dissolved beforehand, in 6, in water until a solution whose concentration, by weight, is 50% and of which the pH is 0.5. The bicarbonate is premixed, in 7, with very fine refined sucrose. The bicarbonate-sucrose ratio can vary depending on the amount of sugar necessary for peening the mass after evaporation.

Pour produire 1 1 de gaz carbonique par kg de saccharose, il faut ajouter, en matière sèche, 2,86 g d'acide citrique et 3,75 g de bicarbonate de sodium par kg de saccharose. A partir de ce stade du procédé, la température doit rester inférieure à I30°C. Le mélange d'acide et de bicarbonate dans la masse de produit sucrant doit être, en 8, très intime pour bien distribuer le gaz carbonique et les bulles de gaz ne peuvent pas dépasser 1 mm de diamètre car sinon elles pourraient s'échapper de la masse avant que celle-ci ne soit durcie. La masse de produit sucrant se présente sous la forme d'une pâte visqueuse au sein de laquelle la réaction de l'acide citrique et du bicarbonate doit se poursuivre pendant un certain temps pour obtenir la structure aérée. Pour cette raison, la masse de produit sucrant doit être coulée, en 9, dans des moules préchauffés à 80°C dont la conception est telle que le produit sucrant y coule sans résistance pour ne pas rompre la structure des bulles. Après la coulée, les moules circulent dans un tunnel de séchage rapide 10 et sont débarrassés de l'excédent de produit sucrant. Après démoulage, les morceaux passent enfin dans un tunnel de séchage lI dont la température interne est de 30 à 35°C pour éviter la coloration du produit. On obtient ainsi des morceaux de produit sucrant blanc dont le volume est d'environ 1 cm3 à 1,5 cm3, dont la densité se situe entre 0,6 et 0,7, dont le pH en solution varie entre 6 et 7 et dont la valeur énergétique est de 2 à 4 Kcal, c'est-à-dire un morceau dont la valeur énergétique est de 80 % à 85 % moindre que celle d'un morceau de saccharose normal de 4 à 6,25 g, et ce à même pouvoir sucrant.To produce 1 1 of carbon dioxide per kg of sucrose, 2.86 g of citric acid and 3.75 g of sodium bicarbonate per kg of sucrose must be added as dry matter. From this stage of the process, the temperature must remain below 130 ° C. The mixture of acid and bicarbonate in the mass of sweetening product must be, in 8, very intimate to distribute the carbon dioxide well and the gas bubbles cannot exceed 1 mm in diameter because otherwise they could escape from the mass before it is hardened. The mass of sweetening product is in the form of a viscous paste in which the reaction of citric acid and bicarbonate must continue for a certain time to obtain the aerated structure. For this reason, the mass of sweetening product must be poured, in 9, into molds preheated to 80 ° C, the design of which is such that the sweetening product flows therein without resistance so as not to break the structure of the bubbles. After casting, the molds circulate in a quick-drying tunnel 10 and are rid of the excess sweetening product. After demolding, the pieces finally pass through a drying tunnel II whose internal temperature is 30 to 35 ° C to avoid coloring of the product. We thus obtain pieces of white sweetening product whose volume is about 1 cm 3 to 1.5 cm 3 , whose density is between 0.6 and 0.7, whose pH in solution varies between 6 and 7 and whose energy value is 2 to 4 Kcal, that is to say a piece whose energy value is 80% to 85% less than that of a normal piece of sucrose from 4 to 6.25 g, and with the same sweetening power.

Les deux vis 24 et 25 sont agencées pour que la pression à l'intérieur de l'extrudeur reste sensiblement égale à la pression atmosphérique. Des moyens de chauffage sont prévus dans les chambres 14 à 18 et 21 à 23. Ces moyens de chauffage sont agencés pour élever la température interne des chambres 14 à 16 progressivement de la température ambiante jusqu'à 150°C à 200°C, des chambres 17 et 18 de 160° à 250°C. Les chambres 19 et 20 qui sont ouvertes pour permettre l'évaporation ne sont pas chauffées tandis que les moyens de chauffage des chambres 21 à 23 sont agencés pour élever leur température interne jusqu'à 90° à 110°C. Les vis 24 et 25 sont en outre agencées pour assurer la propulsion des constituants de la chambre 13 jusqu'à la chambre 20 et pour, outre la propulsion, mélanger intimement les constituants de la chambre 21 jusqu'à la chambre 23. La vitesse de rotation des vis est variable et peut être comprise entre 35 et 100 tours/minute suivant les quantités de produit à fabriquer, ces quantités étant, pour ces deux vitesses de rotation, de 50 et 100 kg/heure. Le mélange saccharose-solution édulcorant artificiel/eau est introduit dans l'extrudeur, entre les chambres 13 et 14, par un conduit 26 relié à une trémie 27 pourvue d'une vis de mélange 28. Le mélange saccharose/bicarbonate est introduit dans l'extrudeur, entre les chambres 19 et 20, par un conduit 29 relié à une trémie 30 munie d'une vis de mélange 31. Enfin, la solution d'acide organique alimentaire est injectée dans l'extrudeur, entre les chambres 20 et 21, par un conduit 32 relié à une trémie 33 pourvue d'un agitateur 34.The installation shown in the drawing is essentially constituted by an extruder-cooker 12 continuously carrying out the phases of the abovementioned process, namely mixing of the constituents, heating of the mixture, partial evaporation of the latter and allowing modifications of the resulting mixture chemical and physical reactions of the constituents with each other.
