This, of course, the extraction of gluten - the most basic commodity exchange good, and then production of natural starch, feed additives, bio-ethanol. Furthermore, the obtained starch may be modified, allowing to produced a bigger number of products. This citric acid, amino acids and so on. We do not exclude the possibility that in the future we will be able to produce detergents based on the citric acid.
