IFF is showcasing innovative food and beverage solutions at Gulfood Manufacturing 2024 in Dubai from November 5-7. Under the theme 'Make joy through science and creativity,' the company will present concepts focused on Experiential Delight, Health, and Affordability across beverages, dairy, snacks, bakery, and confectionery categories.
Key innovations include: cost-efficient dairy drinks with enhanced calcium levels, fizzy beverages with innovative flavors, reduced tomato paste solutions saving up to 30% in sauces, international fusion snacks, and cocoa reduction solutions for cookies and chocolate drinks. These developments aim to help manufacturers create products with sensory appeal and functional benefits while reducing costs.
IFF has launched OPTIMASH® F200 and OPTIMASH® AX enzyme solutions to maximize corn oil recovery at fuel ethanol plants. New in-plant data shows this combination can deliver up to 15 percent additional corn oil recovery, meeting growing demand in biodiesel, renewable diesel, and animal feed industries. IFF has also developed a proprietary oil mapping calculator to help ethanol producers optimize dosing for maximum recovery.
These solutions enable ethanol producers to sell ethanol into low-carbon intensity (low-CI) markets. The enzyme duo has been found to boost corn oil yield by 15.7 percent, from 0.89 lb/bu to 1.03 lb/bu. It also allows producers to enter low-CI markets by breaking down corn kernel fiber into glucose, resulting in a lower CI score and potentially qualifying for substantial tax credits.
IFF offers comprehensive technical support, including baseline and trial oil mapping, data analyses for custom dosing recommendations, and collaboration to reduce energy consumption through fiber dewatering.
