The article presents the results of the patent
research in the field of modern production
technologies of Inulin from plant material. It has
been established that the differences of the currently
known methods of production of inulin are
concluded in selecting raw materials pretreatment
inulin-containing modes type extractant and
extraction methods, methods of purification
inulincontaining extract and methods for producing
the final product. A significant amount of Inulin
production methods is based on use of freshly
feedstock. A number of methods have been
patented involving the extraction Inulin from plant
raw materials previously stabilized by drying. In
most of the methods, inulin extraction is carried out
at elevated temperatures with water or aqueous salt
solutions. Several technologies involve extraction
with organic solvents at low temperatures. Have
been patented several processes in which the
extraction is replaced by a separation process using
inulincontaining juice and physical and mechanical
methods. Some of the known processes provide for
the extraction process to further operations, such as
blanching vegetable raw materials, sonication,
vibration impact, processing enzymes. The most
promising direction to improve manufacturing
technology of inulin from fresh plant raw materials
is to conduct research on the use of electromagnetic
fields at microwave frequencies, the inactivating effects of which on enzyme systems is an
established fact that, in turn, would eliminate the
use of chemical agents for inactivation of oxidative
enzymes. In addition, considering that more
effective are the methods for the preparation of
inulin from freshly harvested plant material, are
relevant researches on development of innovative
technologies to prepare it for storage and its
storage, which will provide inhibition of unwanted
biochemical and microbiological processes that
occur during storage and lead to a loss of inulin
