MXPA96000261A - Rotating reactor for precise nixtamalization demaiz that does not break the grain, does not produce naxayoteni genera contaminante alg - Google Patents

Abstract

The present invention refers to a rotating reactor for nixtamalization of corn that does not break the grain, does not produce naxayote, does not generate contaminants, has a reaction chamber or container heated by thermal oil heated in turn by hot air produced by a gas oven LP, equipped with a pressure eliminator system and hot gas recycler characterized in that, a reaction chamber is surrounded by a first thermal oil jacket connected to a pressure eliminator system, a second hot air jacket produced by a gas oven LP, involves the oil and the reaction chamber, having a hot gas recycling system, all arranged in such a way that we will obtain a new system to transmit exact temperature for a definite time to a reaction chamber or precise cooking using oil thermal and hot air as a means of heat transmission all this equipped with a transmission system variable rotation as appropriate, which allows an exact and stoichiometric reaction in the nixtamalization of corn to avoid waste or contaminants.

Description

ROTATING REACTOR FOR PRECISE NIXTAMALIZATION OF MAIZE THAT DOES NOT BANK THE GRAIN, DOES NOT PRODUCE NAXAYOTE NOR GENERATE CONTAMINANT SOME D ES CR IP CI ON BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION. ALREADY ILLESCAS IN 1943, IN THE MAGAZINE OF THE MEXICAN SOCIETY OF NATURAL HISTORY, WROTE THEIR "CHEMICAL THEORY OF THE FORMATION OF NIXTAMAL", WHERE EXPRESSED: "WHEN THE TIME OF COOKING THAT IS GIVEN TO MAIZE DURING NIXTAMALIZATION IS VERY SHORT, VERY LOOSE MASSES ARE OBTAINED, WHICH CAN NOT BE MOLDED WITHOUT UNBLOCKING, THIS IS BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE STRIPS, OR THAT ARE MISSING WHAT CAN BE CALLED SUFFICIENT REACTION GIVEN BY A MIXTURE OF ZEINE AND GLUTELINE, WHICH, AS A MATTER OF LEAGUE, DAN THE COHESION BETWEEN THE CELLULOSIC RESIDUES AND STARCH, IF THE TIME WAS VERY LONG, YOU GET CHEETOUS MASSES THAT CAN NOT BE TORNED, (FORM THE TORTILLA) FOR BEING STICKY AND ADHERING TO ANY SURFACE WITH WHICH YOU GET IN CONTACT. THE CALACING OF CALLE ACTS ON THE AMYLOURONIDS (HEMILCELULOSAS), HYDROLYZING APPROXIMATELY 50% .- ON LIPIDS HAS A SOLUBILIZING ACTION, THERE IS A LOSS OF 12 TO 15% OF THE ETHERIC EXTRACT WHEN THE CORN IS TRANSFORMED IN NIXTAMAL. ON THE PROTEINS, THERE IS A HYDROLYZATION WITH VERY SMALL SOLUBILIZATION. ABOUT THE COLORANTS, BY THEIR ALKALINITY, INTENSIFIES THE COLOR OF THE FLAVONIC DERIVATIVES BY ALSO VARYING THE ANTHOCYANINE ON THE HYDROSOLUBE VITAMINS, HAS A DESTRUCTIVE ACTION.

DESPITE THE ALMOST FIFTY YEARS THAT HAVE HAPPENED FROM THIS THEORY, THE EQUIPMENT OF THE NIXTAMALIZATION INDUSTRY, ESPECIALLY THE ONE DEDICATED TO THE ALKALINE COOKING IN ITSELF, HAS HAD VARIATIONS ONLY LOOKING FOR OPTIMUM USE OF THE HEAT AND AN EASE OF USE FOOD AND DISCHARGE. THERE ARE EQUIPMENTS IN WHICH THE HEATING IS DIRECT FIRE, HEATING UP TO WATER THE WATER WITH THE LIME FOR ADDING THE MAIZE AND REVOLVE EVERYTHING, REMOVING THE FIRE IMMEDIATELY, AND LEAVING TO REST WITH PERIODIC MANUAL MOVEMENTS TO AVOID THE SETTING OF THE CAL. THIS TYPE OF REACTORS ARE SIMPLE AND CONSIST ONLY IN A METAL CONTAINER. THE LOAD AND DISCHARGE IS COMPLETELY MANUAL AND REQUIRES AN ADDITIONAL CONTAINER TO SEPARATE THE GRAIN OF THE NAXAYOTE OR RESIDUAL BROWN, WHICH CONSTITUTES AN EFFLUENT OF HIGHER CAPACITY POLLUTANT OF THE ENVIRONMENT FOR HIGH CONTENT OF CAL.

THERE ARE ALSO REACTORS IN WHICH THE REQUIRED HEAT IS PROVIDED THROUGH A STEAM JACKET, THIS IS THE ONLY STRUCTURAL DIFFERENCE WITH RESPECT TO PREVIOUSLY USED REACTORS IN ALL THESE REACTORS TWO BASIC PROBLEMS ARE PRESENTED, ONE RELATED TO SOLUBILITY OF THE CALCIUM OXIDE AND THE OTHER RELATED TO THE TRANSFER OF HEAT FROM THE CONTAINER TO THE BOTTOM OF THE MAIZ-AGUA-CAL SYSTEM AND THE , MORE EXTERIOR LAYERS OF THE SYSTEM TO THE MOST INTERIOR OF THE SAME. THE CALCIUM OXIDE, HAS A VERY LOW SOLUBILITY AND THE MAJOR PART IS PRECIPITATIVE ORIGINATING PARTS OF THE SYSTEM WITH EXCESS OF OXIDE AND PART OF THE SAME WITH A VERY WEAK CONCENTRATION.

. WITH REFERENCE OF THE TRANSFER OF THE HEAT, THIS IS CARRIED OUT IN TWO WAYS, SINCE THE RADIATION CAN BE DESPISED, ONE BY DRIVING (BETWEEN THE WALLS OF THE REACTOR AND THE OUTER LAYERS OF THE WATER-MAIZE SYSTEM- CAL) THE OTHER BY CONVECTION , THE ONE THAT IS ESTABLISHED BETWEEN THE. MORE FOREIGN LAYERS AND THE MORE INTERNAL. THE TRANSMISSION OF THE HEAT BY CONVECTION IS ENOUGH SMALL IN THE CURRENT REACTORS.

SUBSEQUENTLY WITH RECORD NUMBER 01982, ON NINE DAY OF APRIL ONE THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED NINETY TWO AND TWO, I PROVIDE A MORE MODERN TYPE OF REACTOR EXPLICITLY DESCRIBED IN THE BODY OF THE APPLICATION OF THAT DATE, SAME AS I WORKED IN THE ARCHIVE OF THAT H. INSTITUTE AND CURRENTLY CONSIDERED AS ABANDONED.

NOW, IN THIS NEW AND MORE EFFICIENT REACTOR, A BETTER DISTRIBUTION AND USE OF THE ENERGY THROUGH A THERMAL SPECIFICATION OIL JACKET IS AVAILABLE AROUND ALL THE REACTOR IN ADDITION TO A HOT AIR FREE TRANSIT JACKET INTENDED TO DELIVER THE CONTROLLED TEMPERATURE, WITHOUT HAVING TO DO IT DIRECTLY FROM THE OVEN IN ADDITION TO HAVING IT PROVIDED OF A SYSTEM TO ELIMINATE GASES THAT GENERATE PRESSURE BY OBTAINING A CONSTANT TEMPERATURE WITHOUT VARIATION OF ANY NATURE. IN THE SAME WAY, EVERY INTERNAL ELEMENT HAS BEEN ELIMINATED IN THE REACTOR REACTION CHAMBER, SUCH AS ALAVES, ELEVATORS, SPIRALS, ETC. WITH THE PURPOSE OF PREVENTING THE GRAIN FROM BREAKING BY THE EFFECT OF THE FRICTION, SINCE WE KNOW THAT THE BROKEN GRAIN IS NOT NIXTAMALIZABLE AND ORIGINS BIG LOSSES IN BIRDS BY EXCESS OF NIXTAMALIZATION, WHENEVER THE BROKEN GRAIN COMES IN IMMEDIATE REACTION BY THE STARCHES EXPOSED ORIGINATING A PREMATURE NIXTAMALIZATION WITH RESPECT TO THE REST OF THE MATERIAL PRESENT IN THE REACTION.

IN THIS WAY THE EQUIPMENT HAS REMAINED WITH A MEDIUM CAPACITY BETWEEN 2.5 TO 3.0 TONS OF MAIZE BY TANDA OR BACHE, WORKING AT A HALF TEMPERATURE BETWEEN 70 AND 100 ° CA WILL IN THE REACTION CHAMBER (1), THERMAL OIL JACKET THAT PREVENTS ANY VARIATION (DESCENT OR ELEVATION) OF THE TEMPERATURE TO HAVE A HOMOGENEOUS REACTION (2), HOT AIR JACKET FOR FREE TRANSIT WITH OVEN RECYCLING FOR VERY IMPORTANT FUEL SAVING (3), MINERAL WOOL ENVELOPE FOR, TEMPERATURE CONSERVATION (4), PRESSURE ELIMINATION SYSTEM TO ACHIEVE AN OPEN SYSTEM (14), ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION SYSTEM (5), BEARING TRACK (6), DRIP FOR CONSTANT TRANSMISSION LUBRICATION (7), CHARGING GATE (8) ), GASKET WITH ANTI-TOOTHING SEAL FOR . DISCHARGE (9), DUCT FOR RECYCLING HOT AIR (10), INJECTION OF OXYGEN TO THE FLAME (11), BURNER FOR GAS L.P. (12), COMBUSTION OVEN FOR AIR HEATING (13), ASSEMBLY CHASSIS (15) AND SUPPORT BALL (16).

OF VERY SPECIAL ATTENTION RESULTS THE FACT THAT THIS. ^ REACTOR EQUIPMENT FOR NIXTAMALIZATION OF CORN, FOR THE TECHNICAL ADVANCES THAT HAVE BEEN INCORPORATED, IN NO EVENT BANKRUPTCY OR ELIMINATES THE FIBER CONSTITUTIVE OF THE PERCHARP ENVELOPE OF THE GRAIN, ALLOWS A REACTION ESTRYOMETRICALLY CALCULATED THAT DOES NOT PRODUCE ANY 'MERMA AND OBTAINS A NIXTAMALIZED GRAIN TO EXACT NEED WITH ALL NUTRIENTS OF CORN PRESENT WITHOUT ANY LOSS, WHICH IS TRANSLATED INTO AN INTEGRALLY NIXTAMALIZED CORN THAT CONTAINS ALL OF ITS INTACT NUTRIENTS, PASSING THEM 100% TO THE MASS AND FINALLY TO THE TORTILLA, WHICH IS ENRICHED NUTRITIONALLY WITH FIBER DE VERY HIGH DIGESTIBILITY AND LOW IN LIGNINA, ELEVATION OF THE BELT AND MUCH MORE ADVANTAGEOUS FEATURES IN CONSERVATION, TASTE AND ODOR FOR THE FINAL CONSUMER, DOES NOT PRODUCE CONTAMINANT OF ANY KIND, DOES NOT RELEASE EFFLUENTS, DO NOT FREE GASES AND ONLY USE 30% OF THE WATER CURRENTLY USED IN THIS PROCESS.
