Upcycling Rice Bran
Rice bran is the nutrient-rich outer layer of dehulled rice. It contains fiber, vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty acids, making it valuable for use in food, cosmetics, skincare, pharmaceuticals, and as a reinforcement material. Globally, more than 50 million tons of rice bran are produced annually.
Upcycling rice bran reduces food waste and enables the creation of high-value products for the agricultural industry.
However, one major challenge is efficiently processing and extracting its nutrients.
Star Burst Technology: Maximizing Production Yield
The Star Burst wet-jet milling system solves this problem. Using ultra-high-pressure jet technology, it instantly breaks down rice bran, unlocking its nutrients with exceptional efficiency.
Key Benefits:
- Higher extraction yield of active components
- Improved nutrient bioavailability for better product performance
- Greater formulation flexibility for foods, supplements, and cosmetics
- Biodegradable cellulose additive for reinforcement, binding, and barrier properties
- Scalable, high-productivity processing for commercial applications
With Star Burst, manufacturers can transform rice bran into a premium, high-value ingredient that delivers its full natural potential.
