A dry, one pass processing method for obtaining pre-process liberated fractions from a corn or other cereal kernel, including moisturizing (S1) the corn bran layer by a mist of small droplets of water, comminuting (S2) the corn kernel with a comminution reactor having a spinnable shaft and two or more processing chambers, separated by segmented plates, wherein each processing chamber comprises one rotor discs attached to the shaft and one or more vortex generators placed in a side wall apex corner of the processing chambers, wherein the corn kernel is fed into the comminution reactor and small and large bran sections, whole and broken germ, soft endosperm, and medium and large hard endosperm fractions are liberated from the corn kernel by means of a chaotic non-linear flow of the corn kernel and the liberated products generated in the processing chambers.

Methods and Apparatus for Producing Protein and Fiber Concentrates from Spent Grain
A method for obtaining one or more fiber rich and one or more protein rich fractions from spent grain, SG, the method comprising: dehydrating (S1) wet spent grain, WSG, into dehydrated spent grain, DSG, by arranging the WSG on at least one dehydration surface, wherein the dehydration surface comprises a net with apertures arranged to allow air to penetrate without the spent grain falling through, and wherein a conditioned air movement system is arranged to move air over, under the dehydration surface as well as through the apertures, and comminuting (S2) the DSG by a comminution reactor comprising a spinnable shaft and two or more processing chambers, separated by segmented divider plates, wherein each processing chamber comprises one rotor disc attached to the shaft and one or more vortex generators placed at respective apex corners of stationary side walls of the processing chambers, wherein the DSG is fed into the comminution reactor and fiber-rich and protein-rich fractions are liberated from the DSG by means of a non-linear vortex flow of DSG and liberated products generated in the processing chambers.

A discharge arrangement (120) for a comminution reactor assembly (100). The discharge arrangement (120) comprises a main chamber (202) extending along a main axis (124). The main chamber has an inlet (121) arranged to be fluidly connected to a comminution reactor (110) and an outlet (122) arranged opposite from the inlet (121) along the main axis (124) and closeable by a common material take-out valve (204). The main chamber (202) is arranged to support a fluid-material stream (123) along a helical path about the main axis (124) from the inlet (121) towards the outlet (122). The discharge arrangement (120) further comprises an airduct (206) arranged extending into the main chamber (202) at an acute angle (a) with respect to the main axis (124). The airduct (206) comprises an aperture arranged facing the outlet (122). Thereby, a portion (125) of the fluid-material stream (123) changes direction from the helical fluid-material stream (123) about the main axis (124) from the inlet (121) towards the outlet (122) to a helical flow inside the airduct (206).
