Distillery slop

The presence of D-psicose (D-n o-hexulose, D-allulose) in distillery slop (from the fermentation of cane molasses) is claimed,96 but sharp experimental support is lacking. 

The desugaring of cane juice concentrates the heat- and alkali-stable vitamins in the final molasses. Even after this accumulation, only myo-inositol may have reached the level of minimum dietary requirements.109 Niacin, pantothenic acid and riboflavin are also present in significant quantities109 the thiamine, pyridoxin, pantothenic acid, biotin and folic acid contents of molasses have been estimated by bioassay.110 111 The biotin content of Hawaiian and Cuban molasses was 2.1 and 1.7 gammas per gram, respectively.119 The antistiffness factor (closely related to stigmasterol) has been found in cane molasses.88 89 The distillery slop from the yeast fermentation of molasses is marketed as a vitamin concentrate this product also contains vitamins originating in the yeast.

Distillery Slop.—One bushel of corn or rye will give from 25 to 30 gal. of liquor containing from 1 to 2 per cent solids. They are concentrated to about 35 per cent solids usually in countercurrent, and the capacity is from 2% to 3 gal. per square foot with a steam pressure of 5 lb. and a vacuum of 27 in. Usually a triple- or quadruple-effect is used and good results have been obtained by reversing the current of the liquor through the evaporators otherwise tubes will foul...
