The HiProSUN process has been awarded the “Solar Impulse Efficient Solution” label, proof of high standards in terms of profitability and sustainability.
HiProSUN is the holder of several patent rights for the territory of the European Union and other countries for the processing of sunflower extraction meal into high protein carriers.
The HiProSUN process converts sunflower extraction meal, the low-grade by-product of oil mills in the extraction of sunflower oil, into two high-quality protein carriers. In addition, an efficient energy carrier is created.
Sunflower extraction meal as a raw material is available in sufficient quantities on the world market but is only suitable as an admixture feed to a limited extent. The HiProSUN process removes the existing obstacles.
In the calculated normal case, the mix of the products HiProSUN I, HiProSUN II and HiProSUN III results in a net profit of 57% and an EBITDA of 51%.
The price difference between GMO-free sunflower extraction meal and genetically modified expensive soybean meal offers considerable potential, not only for mill operators and the animal feed industry, but also for the rainforest and thus the world’s climate.
