Methods and apparatus for processing corn into one or more corn products.
Zein is extracted from corn or corn products or by-products with a
solvent. The corn-solvent mixture is separated into streams, one of which
preferably includes an extract containing at least zein and solvent, and
another that contains de-zeined corn solids and adsorbed solvent. The
solvent is separated from the zein, and the de-zeined, desolventized corn
solids are processed to provide one or more corn products.
