Peanut butter is produced from raw peanuts. During manufacturing first, the peanut shell, soil, and sand are removed using a sheller. The removed shell, sand and soil correspond to 2/5 of the raw material by weight entering to sheller. Then the deshelled peanuts, containing 5.6% water, 26% protein, 47.5% fat, 18.6% carbohydrate, and 2.3% ash, are roasted. After roasting the water content decreases to 1.8% due to the evaporation during roasting. The roasted peanuts are then subjected to skin removal operation in a blancher where the skins removed constitute about 1/40 of the roasted peanuts. Finally, clean roasted peanuts are finely ground in a grinder with addition of 1 kg hydrogenated fat and 2 kg honey per 100 kg of roasted deskinned peanuts. The product from the grinder is filled into 250 g jars by using a canning machine. Draw the process and calculate the quantities of all the streams per 100 kg of the roasted product entering blancher.

Question
Peanut butter is produced from raw peanuts. During manufacturing first, the
peanut shell, soil, and sand are removed using a sheller. The removed shell, sand and
soil correspond to 2/5 of the raw material by weight entering to sheller. Then the
deshelled peanuts, containing 5.6% water, 26% protein, 47.5% fat, 18.6%
carbohydrate, and 2.3% ash, are roasted. After roasting the water content decreases
to 1.8% due to the evaporation during roasting. The roasted peanuts are then
subjected to skin removal operation in a blancher where the skins removed constitute
about 1/40 of the roasted peanuts. Finally, clean roasted peanuts are finely ground in
a grinder with addition of 1 kg hydrogenated fat and 2 kg honey per 100 kg of roasted
deskinned peanuts. The product from the grinder is filled into 250 g jars by using a
canning machine. Draw the process and calculate the quantities of all the streams per
100 kg of the roasted product entering blancher.
