TL;DR: The results obtained showed that drying performance of beet molasses stillage is probably due to an “optimum” combination of the chemico-physical properties of the raw material.
Abstract: It is well known that molasses stillage is difficult to dry because of its high hygroscopicity. This investigation was made to try to affect the drying capability of beet molasses stillage by the addition of gelling agents. Increase in crude protein and essential amino acid content of beet molasses was obtained by growing Brevibacterium flavum and Candida utilis. The results obtained showed that drying performance is probably due to an “optimum” combination of the chemico-physical properties of the raw material.
