What are Defoamers in food

Introduction: food is the food we need every day Many foods are added with defoamers What are the Defoamers in food? Can defoamers be used? Let's introduce them to us Foam is a common phenomenon in our food production It has great harm to foam, which limits the production capacity greatly For example, all kinds of biological fermentation, beer production, alcohol manufacturing, various kinds of fermentor kettle cooking pots in the production of various antibiotics in medicine, in order to prevent bubbles from appearing and prevent overflow losses, the feeding coefficient will be greatly reduced, sometimes less than 30% It is self-evident that the waste generated by the reason of bubbles can cause useful or valuable materials to be lost due to overflowing Such as paper mill, sugar factory filling process, weaving process weaving process, often caused by foam overflow In order to solve the bubble problem, we use defoamer, defoamer, also known as defoaming agent in food production, which is to reduce the surface tension in food processing, inhibit foam production or eliminate foam additives In the process of industrial production, a lot of harmful bubbles will be generated, and defoamer should be added What are the Defoamers in food? At present, the defoamers commonly used in food industry are oils and aliphatic compounds There are also emulsified silicone oil, which is a white emulsion emulsified by adding dispersant AIDS As far as defoamers are concerned, polyether and organosilicon defoamers have the best performance The modification of these two defoamers and the development of new varieties are also active Can defoamers be edible Defoamer is used in the state and is restricted by the content and type of antifoaming agent in food The defoamer in food does not affect the taste of the product, defoaming quickly, defoaming and lasting, and the defoaming efficiency can reach 96-98% The soybean milk we often drink also uses defoaming agent to remove the foam, so the food defoamer is edible Through the introduction of defoamer types in food compiled by Baibai safety net, we also have a simple understanding of this The application of defoamer is very extensive, which is also the requirement of market development Therefore, we should look at the problem dialectically and try to understand more food safety knowledge , to help us learn more about food information, food safety can also be detected using food safety detector Editor in charge: he xianrob
