Methods of separating fat from soy materials and compositions produced therefrom

This invention describes ways to separate fat from soy materials. It involves either grinding soy with a roller mill, or first breaking its cell walls with an extruder then grinding, to make a flour. This flour is then mixed with water to create an extract, which is finally spun in a centrifuge to separate it into a fatty part and a reduced-fat soy liquid.

Why it matters: The significant growth in plant-based food technology since 2007 has created a greater need for efficient, precise methods to separate soy components for diverse product formulations. This process directly addresses that need for specific fat and protein fractions.
