Protein Extraction, BU vs BXI, 10mg

As I anticipated, your link referred to BXI's oil extraction process, but not their protein extraction. I will explain.

Consider the process to be done in two stages. Oil extraction first, and secondly protein extraction from the oil free meal.

For the first stage, each company has their unique low temp processes, for which BXI certainly has a patent, and BU may or may not.

It is the second stage that I am interested in. That is the process to extract their proteins from the oil free meal, for which BU has a patent, and BXI does not that I am aware of. Are these indeed different processes? What is the basis for the claim that they are different?
