The Influence on the Yields by Mechanical Movement of Corn during the Steeping Process. Using two different corn varieties, U. S. Yellow Corn No. 2 and Kenya White Maize, it was tried to find out — in comparison with the conventional corn steeping process, wether higher starch yields may be obtained by means of mechanical movement of corn during the steeping process with steeping time remaining unchanged, or if equal starch yields may be obtained at as shortened steeping time. Naturally, this requires at least equal quality properties of the obtained starches. Under this premise, respective conclusions have been drawn from the results of laboratory yield determinations and analytical tests. In connection with earlier results several criteria for further possibilities of development in the field are given.
