7. The word “extrudate” originates from the Latin word “ex”
(out) and “trudere” (to thrust).
Extrusion is defined as “A process in which material is pushed
through an orifice or a die of given shape, the pushing force is
applied using a piston or a screw.”
7
Karwe, 1992
8. Extrusion is a process which combines several unit operations
including mixing, kneading, cooking, shearing, shaping, forming,
conveying, separation, venting, flavor generation, plastification
and expansion of the food structure.

10. PRODUCTION TECHNIQUE
As a result, it fills the barrel and the spaces between the screw
flights and becomes compressed
Further down the barrel, smaller flights restrict the volume and
increase the resistance to movement of the food
Raw materials are fed into the extruder barrel and the screw(s)
then convey the food along it.
Bordoloi and Ganguly, 2014
10
11. It is forced through one or more restricted openings (dies) at the
discharge end of the barrel as the food emerges under pressure
from the die, it expands to the final shape and cools rapidly as
moisture is flashed off as steam
As it moves further along the barrel, the screw kneads the material
into a semi-solid, plasticized mass.

16. SINGLE-SCREW EXTRUDERS
The most common extruders applied in the
food industry.
The barrels of single-screw extruders usually
have helical or axial grooves on inner surfaces.
This helps to convey and mix the material more
effectively.

Caldwell , 200016
17. The first major commercial application of the in the food
processing industry was conversion of semolina flour into
pasta using solid screws.
Application

Huber, 2000
18. Twin-screw extruder
The term ‘twin-screw’ applies to extruder with two screws of equal
length placed inside the same barrel.
More complicated than single screw extruders, but at the same time,
provide more flexibility and better control.
Maurya and Said, 2014

20. RAW MATERIALS USED
The most used raw materials- starch and protein based
materials, and are used in solid form (Steel et al., 2012).
Most products such as breakfast cereals, snacks and biscuits–
starch (wheat, corn, rice, potato, cassava and pea flour).
Protein- meat-like characteristics (soybean).
Dehgonshoar et al., 2010
20
22. The starch polymer becomes glassy as moisture is
removed, forming a hard brittle texture
Dispersed and degraded to form a continuous fluid
melt
Heat & the action of shear destroy the organized
molecular structure, also resulting in molecular
hydrolysis of the material
At relatively high temperatures, the starch granules
melt and become compressed to a flattened formChangesinstarch
Rao and Thejaswini, 2015
22
23. Enzymes lose their activity after being submitted to high
temperatures and shear
High molecular weight proteins can dissociate into smaller
subunits
During extrusion, disulfide bonds are broken and may re-
form
Proteins are more reactive and undergo many changes
during the extrusion process, most important being
denaturation
Changesinprotien
Rao and Thejaswini, 2015
23
24. Changes in lipids
Lipids acting as lubricants.
They reduce the friction between particles in the mix
and also between the screw and barrel surfaces.
Rao and Thejaswini, 2015
24
26. Anti-nutrients
Extrusion cooking destroys many natural toxins and anti-
nutrients, there by improving safety of the food product.
Compounds such as allergens and mycotoxins susceptible to
extrusion in combination chemical treatments.

Proper handling and processing of the waste generated by
fruits and vegetable processing industry into extrudable form.
Commercialization of the fruits and vegetable incorporated
extruded snack products.
Creating awareness among the consumer about the fruits
and vegetable incorporated extruded snack products using
extension methodologies.
Future line of the work………….
Wecome to all, before getting into the seminar lets consider two different problems
Processing of fruits and vegetables leads to genaration of great quantum of waste, which is difficult to expose and again it causes the environmental pollution.
It is well known about nutraceutical value of fruit and vegetable from seed to peel they possess the nutraceutical value as the waste is also a componet of fruit and vegetable then it also possess the nutraceutical value instead of exploring this we are wasting it and causing environment pollution which really not adviceable….
Today in the name of urbanization/globalisation our food habit is completely changing
And again there is an increase in working women population and all of us were busy and there is no time for us to cook our own food, then automatically we are moving towards junk snacks which are neither nutritious nor healthy
By observing the lifestyle of human The medical scietist mike adams drawn a line that this second problem force to search a healthy snack food product.
By observing these two problems clearly the first problem can be solution for the second i.e we can explore the nutracetical value of the fruit and vegetable and their components for preparation of healthy snack food products for this we are in need of technology and it is extrusion technology using this we can achive our goal of reducing the waste and producing the healthy snack food product………
With this brief background I’m here to through light on the topic i.e
And today we willl discuss about extr
There are 5 diff components of extruder to achive the efficent prtoduction syste it is desired to have constant non interpted feeding of the raw material…….
Preconditioning of the dough is must for easy processing of the material, which is achived by using steam or water….this facilitaets homogity of the particle in the raw material and reduces the friction between the screw surface and the barrel thus prevent deprition of the machines
Screw: an important component of the extruder plays vital role in producing the quality end product. It helps for genrtn of pressure, shear forced reuired for bringing out the necessary physicochemical changes…….
Barrel another important component of the extruder is barrel which gold the screw and provides varied range of temperture and facilitate the cooking process…...
Die an important components performance two different function 1….it provides shape for the product and helps for increasing the force and the cutting mechanism helps for achiving the uniform sized product which is horizontally or vertical….this is a typical extruder
Hot extruder works using more than 100 C the process is also known as extrusion cooking leads to production of food products with low water activity…..and prolongend shelf life ex expanded snack food products inaddition they also destroy the mycotoxin and antinutritional factor
Whereas the cold extruder works using low tempr i.e at ambient condition it simply mix the material and convey it ex meat and pasta food products….
As the name suggest single screw extruders contain single screw which placed inside the barrel……. The rotating screw provides required shearing force, helps in metering of the material ex
Change the content
Twin screw extruders were widely used in food processing, here 2 screws of equall length were placed inside the rootating barrel they are complicated when compared to the single screw extruder but offers flexibility in functioning
Inaddition to this twin screw extruder also helps for easy handling of oily, sticky wet material and material with wide range of particle size are used for processing
The only limitaion is high cost of the machine…….
change
Changes in Fibres
the brassica family member cauliflower is well known for its nutrion and antioxidant property along with this it has hugh waste index...... to exploit the nutrion and anti oxidant propety of this vegetable and to reduce the waste index.......
Increasing the proportion of pumpkin flour from 0% to 10% for the 350 rpm treatment decreased the expansion ratio of the extruded pellets by about 15%, but no further change occurred as the proportion of pumpkin flour was increased to 15% and 20%. At a screw speed of 250 rpm the expansion ratio did not change significantly with the proportion of pumpkin flour (Figure 4).
As expected, the hardness of the extruded products (Figure 5) varied inversely with respect to expansion ratio with harder products tending to be less expanded although this was less evident for the product extruded at 250 rpm.
