Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a solid transformation product of a substrate comprising the following steps: ?preparing a substrate of biomass comprising carbohydrates and proteinaceous matter that originates from soya bean, rape seed, or mixtures thereof, optionally in further mixture with carbohydrates and proteinaceous matter originating from fava beans, peas, sunflower seeds, lupine, cereals, and/or grasses, ?mixing said substrate with an enzyme preparation or a combination of enzyme preparations and adding water in an amount which provides an initial incubation mixture having a water content from 30 to 70% by weight, and a ratio of wet bulk density to dry bulk density from 0.60 to 1.45 in the resulting mixture; ?incubating said initial incubation mixture for 0.15-72 hours at a temperature of 20-70° C.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a processed, solid soya protein product derived from soya bean meal (SBM) which protein product comprises 65-75% protein by weight of dry matter, has a protein to potassium weight ratio of at least about 70:1 and a dry matter content of at least about 90%, which product is substantially free of sodium, and wherein at least about 65% by weight of the indigestible oligosaccharide content of the SBM wherefrom the protein product is derived has been removed. The invention further relates to a leaching method for manufacture of the product as well as product obtainable by the method and use of the processed, solid soya protein product.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a solid transformation product of a substrate comprising the following steps: •preparing a substrate of biomass comprising carbohydrates and proteinaceous matter that originates from soya bean, rape seed, or mixtures thereof, optionally in further mixture with carbohydrates and proteinaceous matter originating from fava beans, peas, sunflower seeds, lupine, cereals, and/or grasses, •mixing said substrate with a live microorganism or a combination of live microorganisms, which live microorganism or mixture of live microorganisms is not live yeast, and adding water in an amount which provides an initial incubation mixture having a water content from 30 to 70% by weight, and a ratio of wet bulk density to dry bulk density from 0.60 to 1.45 in the resulting mixture; •incubating said initial incubation mixture for 1-240 hours at a temperature of 15-70° C.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the simultaneous production of a solid transformation product of the substrate and crude ethanol comprising the following steps: •preparing a substrate from milled or flaked biomass comprising proteinaceous matter which originates from soya bean, rape seed, or mixtures thereof, optionally in further mixture with proteinaceous matter originating from fava beans, peas, sunflower seeds, lupine, cereals, and/or grasses, •mixing said substrate with live yeast in a dry matter ratio of from 1:1 to 10,000:1 and adding water in an amount which provides a ratio of wet bulk density to dry bulk density from 0.60 to 1.45 in the resulting mixture; •incubating said mixture for 1-48 hours at a temperature of about 20-60° C.
