Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pea protein production, and particularly relates to a pea protein production device with a filtering structure and a filtering method. Background Art

[0002] As a high-quality plant protein source, the production demand for pea protein is continuously increasing. During the production process of pea protein, it is necessary to filter pea liquid to separate pea residues and slurry, and then precipitate and purify the remaining slurry to obtain high-quality pea protein. Among them, the filtering link directly affects the purity and production efficiency of pea protein.

[0003] Traditional filtering devices achieve solid-liquid separation through static screening or mechanical vibration at a single frequency. However, due to the presence of impurities such as starch and fiber in pea liquid, it is easy to cause the filter screen to become blocked, reducing the filtering efficiency and even affecting protein activity. Although some devices can relieve the blockage by electric beating or centrifugal vibration of the filter plate, the fixed vibration parameters cannot respond to dynamic working conditions such as the degree of filter screen blockage and slurry viscosity. When the vibration parameters are set too large, local overload is likely to occur, resulting in deformation of the filter screen and reducing the service life of the equipment. When the vibration parameters are set too small, the filtering may be incomplete, reducing the filtering efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0008] A filtering method for a pea protein production device with a filtering structure includes the following steps: I. Open the flip cover, pour the pea soybean milk from the feed inlet, and close the flip cover.

[0009] II. Start the switch. As the pea soybean milk flows into the coarse filter screen layer, pressure sensor a at the coarse filter screen monitors the pressure difference before and after the coarse filter screen , turbidity detector a monitors the concentration of suspended substances in the inlet pea soybean milk , then the pea soybean milk flows into the fine filter screen layer, pressure sensor b at the fine filter screen monitors the pressure difference before and after the fine filter screen , turbidity detector b monitors the concentration of suspended substances in the outlet pea soybean milk , and finally the pea soybean milk flows into the nano-membrane net layer, pressure sensor c at the nano-membrane net monitors the transmembrane pressure difference , and the temperature sensor monitors the frictional heat .

[0024] A filtering method for a pea protein production device with a filtering structure includes the following steps: I. Open the flip cover 29, pour the pea soybean milk from the feed inlet 7, and close the flip cover 29.

[0025] II. Start the switch.

The pressure sensor c21 at the nano - membrane network 11 monitors the transmembrane pressure difference , and the temperature sensor 20 monitors the frictional heat .

[0026] III. Based on the historical database, the random forest algorithm is selected to explore the non - linear relationship between vibration adjustment and variables such as filter screen pressure difference and suspended substance concentration, and a vibration adjustment prediction model is constructed. Among them, the core of the present invention lies in the construction of the vibration adjustment prediction model. According to the actual process of pea protein filtration production, the vibration frequency and vibration duration of the vibrator and variables such as the pressure difference before and after the filter screen belong to a complex data set, and there is a complex non - linear relationship between the variables. Therefore, machine learning - random forest is selected as the core algorithm of the vibration adjustment prediction model. The random forest algorithm randomly selects training data and feature subsets, generates multiple decision trees, and averages or votes on the prediction results of each decision tree to obtain the final prediction result.

[0027] The process of establishing the model includes collecting the data set, sample sampling, feature sampling, constructing decision trees, generating the decision tree model and integrating the prediction results. First, read the pressure difference before and after the coarse filter screen , the inlet suspended substance concentration , the pressure difference before and after the fine filter screen , the outlet suspended substance concentration , the transmembrane pressure difference and temperature Taking the vibration amplitude as the independent variable, the vibration frequency and vibration duration as the predicted dependent variables, and a complete set of index data as a training sample value. After removing abnormal data, all sample data are read into a set, and training samples and test samples are constructed, as shown in Table 1 and Table 2. A sample includes a complete row of data. Assuming the number of rows of the training samples is N rows, a sample is randomly selected from the training samples and put into the sampling set, and then the sample is put back into the original training samples. After N random sampling operations, a training subset containing N samples is obtained.

[0029] Table 2. Test sample data

[0030] IV. Randomly select m features from the feature set, sort the data records according to this feature, and split the data for recording according to the sorted feature values. If all records have the same category, mark it as a leaf node. If the records have different categories, continue to recursively check this node until the number of decisions reaches the default value of 100, complete the construction of the vibration adjustment prediction model, use the test sample data to evaluate the test results, and calculate the prediction accuracy rate of the model.

[0031] Assume the test set is , where each sample corresponds to a set of actual values of vibration frequency and vibration duration , and the prediction result obtained by predicting each sample through the model . If the prediction result has an error within 5% of the actual value , finally, the value of the counter is divided by the number of samples in the test set , and the prediction accuracy rate of the vibration adjustment prediction model can be obtained. The flow chart is as Figure 6 shown. After training, the calculated accuracy rate is , where represents the number of samples with correct predictions, and represents the number of samples in the test set.

[0032] V. When it is monitored that the equipment has run for 98 seconds, at this time, , , , , , , the parameters are automatically input into the vibration adjustment prediction model in the control panel 30. The prediction model outputs the optimal vibration frequency of 38 Hz and the vibration duration of 9 s. The vibrator operates according to the optimal vibration value. When the device runs to the 107th second, it is monitored that , , , , , , the prediction model outputs the optimal vibration frequency of 20 Hz and the vibration duration of 4 s. The vibrator continues to operate according to the new optimal vibration value,... This filtering process is cycled.

[0033] VI. The vibration adjustment prediction model dynamically adjusts the vibration frequency and vibration duration of each vibrator according to the real-time monitoring data until the filtering ends.
