The invention relates to a
combined method, comprising a first method for producing bioethanol (10) and a second method for producing an oilseed
protein product (31, 45), the first method comprising the steps of (a) providing a
slurry (7), wherein the
slurry (7) contains a
carbohydrate-containing feedstock (1), in particular a grain, (b) fermenting the
slurry (7) in order to obtain a fermented liquor (9) containing bioethanol (10), and (c) separating at least some of the bioethanol (10) from the fermented liquor (9); and the second method comprising the steps of (i) providing an oilseed feedstock (4), (ii) extracting the oilseed feedstock (4) using a first extraction agent (39), in order to obtain a first miscella (26) and a first extraction product (27), (iii) splitting the first extraction product (27) into a first mixture (30, 46) containing the oilseed
protein product (31, 45) and a second mixture (32, 47) containing the oilseed secondary product (5), (iv) separating at least some of the oilseed
protein product (31, 45) from the first mixture (30, 46), and optionally separating at least some of the oilseed secondary product (5) from the second mixture (32, 47); wherein the slurry (7) provided in step (a) of the first method contains at least some of the oilseed secondary product (5) obtained in the second method, wherein the first extraction agent (39) contains bioethanol (10) produced in the first method, wherein the first miscella (26) contains at least some of the first extraction agent (39), and wherein at least some of the first extraction agent (39) contained in the first miscella (26) is separated from the first miscella (26) and is used in step (c) of the first method.
