    A process for recovering volatile aroma components from aroma-bearing vegetable materials such as roast and ground coffee. A carrier gas is passed through the vegetable material to strip aromas therefrom, and the resulting aroma-laden gas is contacted with a cryogenic liquid such as liquid nitrogen to condense the aromas from the gas. The carrier gas has a boiling point equal to or lower than that of the cryogenic liquid. Because the efficacy of the condensation step is substantially independent of the gas flow rate, the optimum gas flow rate for effective stripping may be used without loss of aromas at the condensation step.

    FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to the food industry and relates to the production of aromatic substances from coffee and tea.
    The purpose of the invention is to reduce the loss of aromatic substances.
    The method is carried out as follows.
    Inert carrier gas with a flow rate of 8-64 l / h is passed through some specific aromatic-rich plant material (coffee, tea) for 15 minutes to 3 hours at 60-82 ° C (distillation) for the purpose of subsequent extraction from this material aromatic substances
    The resulting aromatic-saturated gas comes into direct contact with the cryogenic liquid, for which the gas is passed through the liquid so that the aromatic substances from the gas can be condensed with the final formation of a solid form. As a cryogenic liquid, it is best to use liquid nitrogen, whose temperature is constantly maintained at –19i ° C or even lower. Then solid frozen aromatic particles are separated from the cryogenic liquid. The aromatics extracted in this way can be entered.

    The carrier gas must have a boiling point that is equal to or slightly below the boiling point of the cryogenic liquid in order to eliminate the possibility of condensation of the carrier gas with aromatics. In the contact zone between the gas flow and
    With a cryogenic liquid, a solid substrate can be added so that aromatics condense on this substrate.
    The drawing shows schematically the technological scheme of the proposed method.
    The scheme consists of a closed distillation chamber 1, a filter 2, a pre-condenser 3, a trap 4, a finely sieved screen 5 and a Dewar 6.
    A batch of raw material, pre-crushed to a particle size of about 2 mm, is loaded into the closed chamber 1 of the distillation of light fractions. Then this chamber is heated to maintain the raw materials at the desired temperature, and they begin to rotate in order to thoroughly mix the coffee particles. Then a constant stream of carrier gas in the form of dry nitrogen is introduced into this chamber, which inside the chamber passes through a stirred mass of coffee particles, and the pressure inside the chamber is maintained slightly above atmospheric. As the carrier gas begins to come into contact with the particles of the raw material, it immediately begins to extract aromatic substances from these coffee particles, as well as absorb water vapor and carbon dioxide, which are released by the particles of the raw material. A stream of aromatic gas flows from the light ends distillation chamber through filter 2, which catches all the particles of the raw material in this stream, and then is directed through pre-condenser 3, which is constantly cooled with cold water.

    Approximately at room temperature, the aromatic-saturated gas flows from the pre-condenser to the upper end of the trap 4, to the lower

    There is a fine mesh sieve 5 at its end. The lower end of this pipeline is immersed in a liquid nitrogen bath that is maintained in equilibrium at its boiling point at atmospheric pressure in an open and insulated vessel or in Dewar 6. At the top of the sieve 5 thin layer of specific substrate. The pressure in the trap 4 displaces all the liquid nitrogen from this pipeline and maintains the gas / liquid interface at the lower end of the pipeline. In this way, the top of the pipeline is filled with gas, and liquid nitrogen is held in direct contact with the screen and with the substrate layer. The gas continuously exits the lower end of the pipeline, pre-passes through the substrate and the sieve, and releases bubbles through the liquid nitrogen into the vessel along with the gaseous nitrogen that is released from the liquid bath. The gases exiting the bath are vented to the atmosphere.
    After the aromatic gas, which flows down the pipeline, passes through the substrate and enters liquid nitrogen, its temperature is almost instantaneously lowered to the temperature of liquid nitrogen, i.e. up to -19J5 ° C. Aromatic substances and carbon dioxide from the gas are condensed on the substrate and on the sieve 5. At the temperature prevailing in this pipeline, carbon dioxide forms a harsh frost or snow coat. At this moment, the flavors either freeze or adsorb on the snow coat and / or on the substrate. Consequently, all condensed flavors are collected in solid form on a snow coat or substrate on the upper side of the sieve.
    After the desired amount of aromatics has been extracted from the raw material and accumulated in the trap, the gas flow is stopped. Solid trapped & fragrances are separated from liquid nitrogen by simply lifting the trap and removing it from the dewar. Any amount of liquid nitrogen that could enter the pipeline after the shutdown
    To remove the gas stream, you must return it back to the bath by passing it through a sieve. Solid aromatics are then prepared for incorporation into coffee and its products. These aromatic substances can, for example, be incorporated into instant coffee using conventional methods that are commonly used to introduce aromatic substances into a liquid used for blending, such as a concentrated coffee extract, edible oil, or an emulsion of edible oil in a coffee extract. The liquid used for blending can then be introduced into instant coffee powder or another similar product. The liquid used for blending can be dried, and the dry product formed can be mixed with instant coffee powder or another similar product.
    Extracted aromatics must be heated to a temperature above the freezing point of the mixing liquid. After heating, carbon dioxide evaporates, which solidifies together with aromatic substances. Aromatic substances can be heated in a closed container together with the substrate, while holding carbon dioxide. During the heating process, the heated aromatics adhere to the substrate, so that if carbon dioxide is eventually released, only a very small proportion of the aromatics is lost with it. In order to minimize the loss of aromatics in the heating stage altogether, it is possible to immerse the solid aromatic substances and the substrate in the mixing liquid and heat them by contacting each other so that the aromatic substances, which in this case are in gaseous form, released in the process, are absorbed in a mixing liquid.
    The most suitable aromatic binding agents are edible fats or glycerides, carbohydrates, aqueous coffee extract, instant powdered coffee, and combinations thereof in frozen powdered form. Preferred

    the substrates are a concentrated coffee extract mixture or emulsion and edible oil, and the most preferred substrate is a mixture consisting of approximately two parts by weight of coffee extract containing approximately 45% by weight of coffee solids and one part by weight weight from edible oil. The process of extracting aromatic substances can be carried out on a stoichiometric basis with other steps that are used to convert roasted and ground coffee into instant powdered coffee after extracting aromatic substances from it or stripping off light fractions. In this operation, a mixture of aromatic substance and substrate, obtained on the basis of a specific quantity of roasted and ground coffee, is mixed with soluble coffee powder, obtained from the same quantity of roasted and ground coffee. If a recommended or preferred amount of substrate is used, then the stoichiometric operation has as a result of adding to the soluble coffee powder about 0.5% by weight of the oil from the substrate. These amounts of oil may be present in the powder without imparting unpleasant taste to the reconstituted beverage,
    Smaller amounts of the substrate can be used or the substrate can be dispensed altogether, and this will not have any major negative effect on the process of extraction of aromatic substances. If the substrate is not used at all, then special care is needed in order to minimize the loss of aromatic substances after their removal, for example, during the heating operation in order to introduce aromatic substances into the final product.

    Relatively non-volatile, high-boiling aromatics collected in the pre-condenser can also be incorporated into the final product, for example, by introducing them into a miscible liquid together with more volatile aromatic substances recovered and collected in the cannon.
    The aromatic substances originally collected in the precondensator and having a boiling point above about 0 ° C do not substantially contribute to improving the taste and aroma of the final product, and therefore these aromatic substances can be thrown away altogether. It is also possible to refuse altogether from using a pre-condenser, in this case all aromatic substances are collected in a nitrogen-cooled trap together with ice, pressure, from water vapor in the gas stream. Since this option is associated with a rather significant additional introduction of heat into the liquid nitrogen bath, it is considered less preferred.
    It is also possible to install an additional pre-capacitor between the first pre-capacitor and the trap, which operates at an intermediate temperature. In this case, it is possible to achieve even greater cooling of the gas flow, whereby it is possible to minimize the introduction of heat into the bath with liquid nitrogen, and consequently, to minimize the evaporation of liquid nitrogen. The aromatic substances collected in the additional precondensator can be mixed with the final product or simply thrown away. The pre-cooler and the additional pre-condenser can operate at or below the sublimation temperature of carbon dioxide (-78.5 ° C). If the additional pre-capacitor operates at a temperature below the sublimation temperature of carbon dioxide, then it removes carbon dioxide from the gas stream even before the moment when this stream reaches the trap. In accordance with this embodiment of the invention, trapped aromatic substances in
    mostly free of carbon dioxide, and therefore less affected by losses due to evaporation of carbon dioxide during heating. Although volatile averages aromatic substances collected in an additional precondenser are associated with or associated with solid carbon dioxide, there is reason to believe that they will be less valuable and less susceptible to losses during heating than exclusively volatile aromatic substances. substances collected in the trap. The cryogenic fluid used in this process must be essentially non-reactive with respect to aromatics, must not be toxic and must have a freezing point, well below the desired fluid temperature. During this process, it is recommended to keep the temperature of the cryogenic liquid at about -195 ° C. Although it is possible to use lower temperatures of the cryogenic liquid, these lower temperatures practically do not give any gain, since basically complete extraction of aromatics from the gas stream is reached only at a temperature of -195 C. Significantly higher temperatures of the cryogenic liquid lead to less complete extraction of aromatics, and therefore they are less preferred.
    Some other carrier gases can also be used. The carrier gas must not react with aromatic substances and must have a boiling point that is equal to or lower than the temperature of the cryogenic liquid used in the process. If liquid nitrogen is used as a cryogenic liquid, then some of the nitrogen extracted from the liquid bath can be collected and used as a carrier gas.
    It is preferred that the boiling point of the carrier gas at a pressure that prevails at the interface between the gas flow and the cryogenic liquid is equal to or lower than the temperature of the cryogenic liquid. If the boiling point of the carrier gas is equal to the temperature of the cryogenic liquid, then as the carrier gas passes through the cryogenic liquid, it does not condense. After some part of the carrier gas reaches the temperature of the liquid, the transfer of heat immediately stops and the gas forms a bubble in equilibrium with the surrounding liquid. If the boiling point of the carrier gas is lower than the temperature of the cryogenic liquid, then in this case there is a high probability that the carrier gas will not
    condense and, therefore, it will not be trapped or trapped in solid aromatic substances.
    The use of a non-condensable carrier gas contributes to the formation of the aroma being produced in the final product. Although the invention is not limited to any theory of work, it can be assumed that since the solid aromatic substances extracted or recovered in the trap do not contain any large part of the condensed carrier gas trapped within the solid matrix, it does not occur. no significant distillation of light fractions of aromatic substances by volatilized carrier gas when heated.
    All aroma reaching the trap is condensed and reduced or recovered in: solid form. During the entire period while the cryogenic fluid is kept at about -195 ° C or slightly lower, the lower end of the trap remains immersed in the cryogenic fluid; throughout this period, there is no detectable loss of aromatic substances in the gas leaving the trap despite the constant flow of gas

    The carrier through the distillation chamber of the light fractions is selected so as to ensure the optimum removal of the light fractions of aromatic substances from roasted coffee.
    The rate at which flavors can be successfully distilled from roasted and ground coffee and tea is limited by the rate of diffusion from the inside of the coffee particles to the surface of the same particles. Outside of any particular practical barrier, further increasing the flow rates of the carrier gas does not significantly increase the efficiency or speed of the light ends stripping step. Although with the help of appropriate analytical instruments it is possible to detect some increase in the yield of the aromatic substance in the trap in the event that the gas flow rate exceeds the mentioned limit, but this effect is so insignificant

    that even expert tasters are not able to detect differences in the taste and aroma characteristics of the final drink, which includes reconstituted or extracted aromatic substances. In order to minimize the loss of aromatic substances, the flow rate of inert gas takes 8-64 l / h.
    The efficiency of the light fraction distillation stage increases as the temperature rises, however, at temperatures above 82 ° C, there is a strong tendency for coffee aroma to deteriorate. Therefore, during the light fraction distillation stage, the raw material temperature should be maintained at about 60- 82 C.
    The efficiency of the light ends distillation stage also increases as the duration of the distillation stage increases, however, the quantitative expression of the additional aromatic substances obtained in this way gradually decreases towards the end of this process. For roasted and ground coffee with a particle size of 1–3 rum of about 1–3 mm, the greatest efficiency of distillation can be achieved within the first 15 minutes, even after 3 hours, some additional yield of distillation production is noted with an increase in the duration of the distillation process itself. In order to achieve an optimal balance between the duration of distillation and the efficiency of extraction of aromatic substances, it is recommended to limit the duration of distillation from about 15 minutes to about 3 hours. During the periodic processing of the raw material, the next batch is kept in the chamber for the desired distillation period. During the continuous processing process, a batch of raw material is fed and passes through the distillation chamber of the light ends continuously using an appropriate conveyor so that each portion of the feed charge is held in the chamber for the desired duration of distillation.
    Tea can be processed just like coffee. However, it should be borne in mind that aromatic substances in tea are usually less volatile than in tea.
    fe Consequently, the distillation times, the temperatures of the distillation process itself, and the flow rate of the carrier gas usually approach the higher limits of the aforementioned coffee ranges, i.e. they are taller. Aromatic substrates that can be used with tea aromatics include tea extract, instant powdered tea, edible oils, carbohydrates, and combinations thereof in the form of frozen particles. Usually, tea intended for processing by distillation is represented by black tea leaves, m. in the form in which it is commonly used for a normal industrial extrusion process
