Publication number: 20200296991Abstract: Fluorine being present in the exoskeleton of crustaceans, and especially krill represents a problem for using hill as a source for food, feed, food additives and/or feed additives. There has been developed a process for removing such fluorine from krill material by subjecting the krill to disintegration and to an enzymatic hydrolysis process prior to or simultaneously with a removal of the exoskeleton particles producing a fluorine-reduced product. Inherent in the disclosed process is the ability to process krill material with a high polar lipid content for producing superior quality, low fluorine, products suitable for the food and feed as well as the pharmaceutical, neutraceutical and cosmetic industry.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 8, 2020Publication date: September 24, 2020Inventors: Stig Tore Kragh Jansson, Jon Reidar Ervik, Leif Grimsmo

Patent number: 9814256Abstract: The present invention contemplates the creation of a low fluoride oil processed from a phospholipid-protein complex (PPC) formed immediately upon a (i.e., for example, krill) catch. Further, the oil may also have reduced trimethyl amine and/or trimethyl amino oxide content. The process comprises disintegrating the s into smaller particles, adding water, heating the result, adding enzyme(s) to hydrolyze the disintegrated material, deactivating the enzyme(s), removing solids from the enzymatically processed material to reduce fluoride content of the material, separating and drying the PPC material. Then, using extraction with supercritical CO2 or supercritical dimethyl ether, and/or ethanol as solvents, krill oil, inter alia, is separated from the PPC. In the extraction the krill oil can be separated almost wholly from the feed material.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2012Date of Patent: November 14, 2017Assignee: Rimfrost Technologies ASInventors: Inge Bruheim, Mikko Griinari, Jon Reidar Ervik, Stig Rune Remoy, Even Remoy, John Cameron
