  • Publication number: 20210244069
    Abstract: The present invention refers to a method and respective system for producing reconstituted vegetable strips, whose said process comprises of milling steps of the vegetable materials to achieve specific particle sizes between 10 to 200 MESH; mixture of cellulose fibers in an intensive mixer to 1 to 10 min; mixture of vegetable material to a binding compound added to the nanocellulose fibers; adding at least one humectant agent and water to the mixture; submitting the mixture to a shearing step through a pre-lamination system comprised of at least two linear and parallel lamination rollers; submitting a strip to a mixture in an intensive mixer for obtainment of an homogeneous mass; lamination of the mixture between at least two linear and parallel lamination rollers, obtaining a continuous strip with a specific thickness; drying the vegetable strip through its passage through a thermal chamber in a specific temperature, between 90° C. and 900° C.

  • Patent number: 9943101
    Abstract: A procedure and machine for reconstituting powders of vegetal origin by lamination process, in which the machine includes a lamination device, a set of frontal and posterior drag rolls, a hot air insufflator, a thermal chamber and a conveyor, so that the vegetal mass is pressed by laminating rolls to obtain a pellicle of vegetal material that is deposited over the conveyor circulating inside a terminal chamber for drying the formed pellicle of vegetal material, which can be reinserted in industrial process.
