Tribostatic separation methods and systems for the preparation of various food and feed products. A tribostatic separation method and system for fractionating a feed mixture, wherein the feed mixture includes at least two components selected from the group consisting of protein, starch, soluble and insoluble fibers. That is, a feed mixture comprising at least two components selected from the group consisting of protein, starch, soluble and insoluble fibers is provided to the triboelectrostatic separator, and the feed mixture is simultaneously charged and separated into at least two sub-components The fractions, each sub-fraction is rich in one of protein, starch and fiber, and has a different composition than the feed mixture. |
