Agar production process

Abstract

The invention provides an agar production process which comprises the following steps: S1, pouring 1 / 3 of water into a cleaning and soaking device, adding sodium hydroxide into the water, and puttinggracilaria into the cleaning and soaking device for soaking; S2, after soaking is finished, draining soaking water out of the cleaning and soaking device, and recycling and storing the soaking water for next use; conveying clean water into the cleaning and soaking device, stirring and cleaning the gracilaria, discharging water out of the cleaning and soaking device after stirring and cleaning, andrepeatedly stirring and cleaning for five times until the gracilaria is beige; S3, taking out the cleaned gracilaria from the cleaning and soaking device, putting the gracilaria into a glue boiling device, adding water into the glue boiling device, and heating and cooking the gracilaria to be colloidal; pouring the colloidal gracilaria into a stirring pot, adding a perlite filtering agent, uniformly stirring, and removing impurities in the colloidal gracilaria. According to the process, agar can be produced on a large scale, and the technological process is simple.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of food processing and production, in particular to an agar production process. Background technique [0002] Along with the raising of people's living standard, people require better and more nutritious instant food to satisfy rich and colorful dietary life. Agar (Agar), also known as agar, commonly known as agar, jelly powder or jelly, is a hydrophilic colloid extracted from the red seaweed. According to the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China, agar "is a slimy substance leached from Gelidi-umamamiiLantx or several other red algae plants and dehydrated and dried"; according to the definition of the United States Pharmacopoeia, agar is a kind of Rhodophyceae. Hydrocolloid extracted from seaweed; according to the chemical structure, agar is a kind of high molecular polysaccharide with galactose as the main component.

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the existing agar production process, a series of operations such as soaking, cleaning, handling, cutting and transshipment need to be performed manually. When agar is processed in large quantities, the work efficiency is low. For large-scale production operations, it takes a lot of time and labor, increase production costs, the existing agar production process is cumbersome and troublesome to operate
