Description
~ ~ 4 ~ 7 PROCESS FOR PRODUCING ~THYL A~COHO~ FROM AMYLACEOUSRAW S~OCK
The present invention relates to the fermentation branah of eood indus~ry a~d is concerned with processes for producing ethyl alcohol from amylaceous raw stock, such as, say, wheat, barley, or rye.
Prior-art processes for producing ethyl alcohol from amylaceous raw stock are kno~n to be based on hydrolysis and fermentation, and to comprise the following stages:
/1/ crushing the corn grain3;
/2/ rendering the grains pastelike and grain cooking;
/3/ enzymic hydrolysis of cereal starch;
/4~ fermenting;
/5/ wash distilling.
There is ex~ensively applicable currently a process for producing ethyl alcohol ~rom amylaceous raw stock9 su¢h as rye, barley, or wheat by hydrolyzing in the presence of malt enzymes. Malt is known to comprise predominantly ~_ and ~ -amylases that h~drolyze s~arch to maltose and gluco-se, which are then yeast-fermented into alcohol.
The above-discussed process i~volves, however~ top-grade grains ~or malt preparation, which there~ore is a hi~hly critical product. In additiont non~amylaceous sub-stances, such as cellulose, hemicellu1ose9 and some others, contained in grains are not hydrolyzable by the malt ensymes.
3~'7~7 _ 2 _ ~ urther improvement in the ethyl alcohol production techniques has heretofore been aimed at searching ~or such microbial-origin enzymic preparations that would be able to hydrolyze starch, hemicellulose, cellulose, and some other substances contained in corn ~rains.
~ here have been proposed some processes for producing ethyl alcohol ~rom amylaceous raw stock by hydrolyzing the latter in the presence of amylolytic enz~mes produced by mould fungi &nd bacteria. Such ~ungial and bacterial enzymic preparations possess more potent complex of enzymes than malt and hence are capable of hydrolyzing the starch-con-taining grain portion somewhat more completely. On that account the yield o~ e~hyl alcohoi pe~ unit o~ grain raw stock is higher due to the e~ect o~ fungial- or bacterial-origin amylolytic enzymes. Substitution o~ malt for the above enzymic preparations in producing ethyl alcohol enables one to save to a great e~tent high-grade corn grains which have heretofore been spent in great a~ounts for malt preparation-However, the afore-mentioned enæymic preparations ob-tained from mould fungi and bacteria, can hydrolyze starch only and practically produce no hydrolyzing effect upon non-amylaceous carbohydrates, such as cellulose and hemicellulose 9 and also somc other polysaccharides-One prior-art process ~or producing ethyl alcohol is known to conzist in hDdrolyzing corn grainz in the prezenoe , 1 ~ ~ 3 ~ ~
of an enzymic preparation obtained ~rom the grown culture of Aspergillus ni~e.r /c~. USSR Inventor~s Certificate No. ~7,012, cl~C 1~c 7/04, published on February 20, 1941/-However, raw stock h~ydrolysis occurs in this case but in-completely, and a great proportion o:~ carbohydrates involv-ed remain unfermented. ~his is due to the fact that the above preparation fails to contain a required complex of enzymes.
One more prior-art process for producing ethyl alcohol from corn grains is known to involve the use of an enzymic preparation obtained from the grown culture of a mould .fungus named Aspergillus oryzae /cf. USSR Inventor~s Certi-.ficate ~oO119,852, cl C 12c 7/04, published in 1958/. Howe-ver, this preparation fails to improve hydrolysis, too.
An enzymic preparation of phosphatase has bee~ propos-ed for carrying out more complete hydrolysis of amylaceous raw stock /cf. USSR Inventor~s Certificate No.460,292,cl-C
12c 7/04, published on May 15, 197~/. But even this prepara-tion ~ails to bring about complete h~rdrolysis o~ amylaceous raw stockO
The eng~mes listed above are engaged only in hydrolysis of t'ne amylaceou~ portion o~ corn grains and produce practi-cally no e~ect upon such hardl~ hydrolyzable grain poly-saccharides as cellulose and hemicellulose whose hydrolyza-tes can be converted into ethyl alcohol.
~3~;~77 _ 4 ~
~ here have also been proposed some processes ~or pro-ducing ethyl alcohol involving the use of enzymes capable o~ hydrolyzing carbohydrates con~ained in the grain wall cells. ~rhe enzymes mentioned above are produced by ~richo-derma viride /c~- US Patent No.3,616,220, cl-C 12b 1/00 published on October ~6, 1971/~ AsperOillus niger /cf. Pa-tent of GDR No.77,176, cl~6a2~ 3/10 published on October 20, 1970/, Trichotecium roseum /c~. USSR Inventor~s Certi-~icate No.3169719, cl.C 12c 7/04 published on October 7, l971/. However, the above-mentioned producers ~ail to gene_ rate such an active complex o~ hydrolytic enzymes that is required ~or comple~e and thorough-going hydrolysis of grain raw stock-A process for saccharifying grain raw stock with ami~ture of malt and an enzymic preparation ~rom Aspergillus awamori mould fungus containing xylanase and~ -~lucanase, is protected by USSR Inventor~s Certificate No.467,9Z9, cl~G 12c 7/04 published on December 25, 1974. ~his prepara-kion hydrolyzes xylane and ~ -glucane~ whereby the yield of eth~l alcohol is increased by 2 to 2.5 per cent~ However, the application o~ the above en~ymic preparation enables one to substitute malt by 30 to 35 per cent only.
Known in the art are some methods o~ cellulose process-ing in the presence o~ highly puri~ied, concentrated or immobilized enzymes obtained from the cultures o~ microor-.
~3~77 ganisms grown by the submerged cultivation method, e.g~,~richoderma viride cult~re /c~. US Patent No. 3,542,580, cl.C 1~d 13~04 pub].ished ~ebrua.ry 15, 1972/. Canadian Pat-ent ~o.975,313, cl. 195-16 pu~lished on February 23, 1972, discloses a process for treating starch and protein-con-taining vegetable material with proteolytic enzymes, whereas ~rench Patent No-2,382,497, cl. C 12c 11/12 publish-ed on November 3, 1978 deals with a process for producing ethyl alcohol by virtue o~ cellulose fermenting under the e~ect o~ a miæed culture at a temperature of 50 to 65C
and the pH of 7 to 8. However, this patent fails to speci~y what producers are employed-It is an e~sential object of the present invention tos~arch for such an enzymic preparation ~hat would contain the required complex of h~drolytic enzymes capable o~ hydro-lyzing the nonam~laceous portion of the raw stock into fer-mentable sugars, thereby increasing the yield o~ ethyl alcohol.
~ he above object is acoomplished due to the provision o~ a novel enzymic preparation~ containing a complex of hydrolytic enzymes produced by a mould fungi ~richoderma koningii which is capable o~ more complete hydrolysis of amylaceous raw stock-According to the present invention, a process for pro-ucing ebhyl aloohol ~rom amylaceous raw stock by ibs hydro-,.

l~sis under the e~fect of am~lolytic enzymes is characteriz-ed by that hydrolysis is carried out in the presence o~ an enzymic preparation o~ cellulase obtained ~rom the culture of ~richoderma koningii, containing a complex o~ hydrolytic enzymes, viz., C1-enzyme? endo- and exoglucanase, cellobiase, x~lanase, J~ -glucosidase, protease, and a number o~ amylo-lytic enæymes-The principal e~zyme~ making part of the afore-mention-ed proparation ~eature the ~ollowing activity /in terms o~

wheat bran - 40 to 45 beet pomace - 20 to 25 malt sprouts - ~5 to ~0 sawdust - 5 to 10 Culti~ation is carried out at 30 to ~5C ~or 48 to 55 hours. On terminating the cultivation process the re-sultant enzymic preparation can be made use of in alcohol production or as the mould culture together with the re-mainder of the nutrient medium and mycelium, disintegrated and dried to a moisture content of 12 or 1~ per cent; or else in the form o~ a preparation obtained by precipitating the enzymes ~rom aqueous extracts of the mould fungus cul-ture, b~ organic solvents-Application of unpurified enzgmic preparation in the form of the culture of the above mould fungus is economi.cal-ly more reasonable, as this rules out e~penditures for iso-lati~g -the enzymes and prevents losses of their activity in .

~ he process of the present i.n~ention is carried out as Pollows. Am~laceous raw stock, 9 .g.1 wheat grains, is ~ed to the crusher to be disintegrated there, wherefrom the stock enters the mixer-pre~oiler composed of two compart-ments. In the first compartment the crushed grains is mixed with water in a weight ratio o~ 1 4, whereupon the mixture is forwarded to ~he second compartment, where it is heated to 80 or 85C. While the mixture is being heated starch is rendered pasteliXe- Next the pastelike mass is delivered from the preboiler to the cooker arrangement, wherein the mass is cooked at a pressure of 0-4 to 0.5 MPa for 30 to 50 min. ~hen the cooked mass is delivered to the steam separator for getting it read of steam, and from there to the 1st-stage saccharifier to be cooled to the temperature of hydrolysis /58 to 60C/. Fed to the sacchari~ier in an is amount of 30 per cent an aqueous suspension of a mixture of the hydrolytic enzymes obtained from surface cultures o~
mould fungi7 the above suspension containing 1 per cent -amylase from Aspergillus.oryzae /in terms of starch mass/, 4 per cent glucoamylase ~rom Aspergillus awamori Jin terms of the starch mass/, and.1~5 per cent o~ a comp-lex preparation of cellulase from the culture o~ ~richo-derma Xoningii /in terms of whole mass of raw stock~ ~he above aqueous suspension is treated with formalin in a 0-02 mass per cent concentration-~ ~3~i77 It is in -the 1st-stage saccharifier that the cooked mass is lique~ied and partially ~ydrolyzed under the effect o~ the aLore-mentioned enzymes, the process proceeding at 58 to 60C ~or 10 min. From the 1st-stage saccharifier the mass is transferred to the 2nd-stage saccharifier to which are added the remaining 70 per cent of the above aqueous suspension o~ the hydrolytic enzymes grown on surface cul-tures of mould fungi, whereupon starch and nonamylaceous polysaccharides undergo thorough hydroly~is in the 2nd-stage saccharifier at 57 to 58C for 2 to 5 minutes. Ne~t the finally h~drolyzed mass is transferred from the 2nd-stage saccharifier to the heat e~changer to be cooled to the fermentation temperature /30C/ and from there to the fermenter vat, into which is also introduced yeast ~accha~
romyces cerevisiae XII in an amount of 6 to 8 per cent of the fermenter ~at use~ul capacity. ~hereupon the sacchari-fied mass undergoes fermentatio~ under the effect of the above-mentioned yeast, the fermentation process occurring at 28 to 30C for 4B to 50 hours-The ~ermentation process over, the mature yeast washis fed to the rectifying still. A 4-per cent increase in the yield of ethyl alcohol per unit o~ the original amylace-ous stock is attained as compared to the ethyl alcohol pro-ducing process diispensing with the proposed preparation-~ he enzymic preparation of cellulose made use of forhydrolysis, is obtained by surface cultivatine o~ s mould .

Prelimi-nary heat treatment o~ grains occurs in the 1st compart-ment, whereas final heat treatment of grains, i.e., render-ing them pas~elike, is carried out in the 2nd compartment at 80 to 85C for 2 to 5 minutes.

The present invention relates to the fermentation branah of eood indus~ry a~d is concerned with processes for producing ethyl alcohol from amylaceous raw stock, such as, say, wheat, barley, or rye.
Prior-art processes for producing ethyl alcohol from amylaceous raw stock are kno~n to be based on hydrolysis and fermentation, and to comprise the following stages:
/1/ crushing the corn grain3;
/2/ rendering the grains pastelike and grain cooking;
/3/ enzymic hydrolysis of cereal starch;
/4~ fermenting;
/5/ wash distilling.
There is ex~ensively applicable currently a process for producing ethyl alcohol ~rom amylaceous raw stock9 su¢h as rye, barley, or wheat by hydrolyzing in the presence of malt enzymes. Malt is known to comprise predominantly ~_ and ~ -amylases that h~drolyze s~arch to maltose and gluco-se, which are then yeast-fermented into alcohol.
The above-discussed process i~volves, however~ top-grade grains ~or malt preparation, which there~ore is a hi~hly critical product. In additiont non~amylaceous sub-stances, such as cellulose, hemicellu1ose9 and some others, contained in grains are not hydrolyzable by the malt ensymes.
3~'7~7 _ 2 _ ~ urther improvement in the ethyl alcohol production techniques has heretofore been aimed at searching ~or such microbial-origin enzymic preparations that would be able to hydrolyze starch, hemicellulose, cellulose, and some other substances contained in corn ~rains.
~ here have been proposed some processes for producing ethyl alcohol ~rom amylaceous raw stock by hydrolyzing the latter in the presence of amylolytic enz~mes produced by mould fungi &nd bacteria. Such ~ungial and bacterial enzymic preparations possess more potent complex of enzymes than malt and hence are capable of hydrolyzing the starch-con-taining grain portion somewhat more completely. On that account the yield o~ e~hyl alcohoi pe~ unit o~ grain raw stock is higher due to the e~ect o~ fungial- or bacterial-origin amylolytic enzymes. Substitution o~ malt for the above enzymic preparations in producing ethyl alcohol enables one to save to a great e~tent high-grade corn grains which have heretofore been spent in great a~ounts for malt preparation-However, the afore-mentioned enæymic preparations ob-tained from mould fungi and bacteria, can hydrolyze starch only and practically produce no hydrolyzing effect upon non-amylaceous carbohydrates, such as cellulose and hemicellulose 9 and also somc other polysaccharides-One prior-art process ~or producing ethyl alcohol is known to conzist in hDdrolyzing corn grainz in the prezenoe , 1 ~ ~ 3 ~ ~
of an enzymic preparation obtained ~rom the grown culture of Aspergillus ni~e.r /c~. USSR Inventor~s Certificate No. ~7,012, cl~C 1~c 7/04, published on February 20, 1941/-However, raw stock h~ydrolysis occurs in this case but in-completely, and a great proportion o:~ carbohydrates involv-ed remain unfermented. ~his is due to the fact that the above preparation fails to contain a required complex of enzymes.
One more prior-art process for producing ethyl alcohol from corn grains is known to involve the use of an enzymic preparation obtained from the grown culture of a mould .fungus named Aspergillus oryzae /cf. USSR Inventor~s Certi-.ficate ~oO119,852, cl C 12c 7/04, published in 1958/. Howe-ver, this preparation fails to improve hydrolysis, too.
An enzymic preparation of phosphatase has bee~ propos-ed for carrying out more complete hydrolysis of amylaceous raw stock /cf. USSR Inventor~s Certificate No.460,292,cl-C
12c 7/04, published on May 15, 197~/. But even this prepara-tion ~ails to bring about complete h~rdrolysis o~ amylaceous raw stockO
The eng~mes listed above are engaged only in hydrolysis of t'ne amylaceou~ portion o~ corn grains and produce practi-cally no e~ect upon such hardl~ hydrolyzable grain poly-saccharides as cellulose and hemicellulose whose hydrolyza-tes can be converted into ethyl alcohol.
~3~;~77 _ 4 ~
~ here have also been proposed some processes ~or pro-ducing ethyl alcohol involving the use of enzymes capable o~ hydrolyzing carbohydrates con~ained in the grain wall cells. ~rhe enzymes mentioned above are produced by ~richo-derma viride /c~- US Patent No.3,616,220, cl-C 12b 1/00 published on October ~6, 1971/~ AsperOillus niger /cf. Pa-tent of GDR No.77,176, cl~6a2~ 3/10 published on October 20, 1970/, Trichotecium roseum /c~. USSR Inventor~s Certi-~icate No.3169719, cl.C 12c 7/04 published on October 7, l971/. However, the above-mentioned producers ~ail to gene_ rate such an active complex o~ hydrolytic enzymes that is required ~or comple~e and thorough-going hydrolysis of grain raw stock-A process for saccharifying grain raw stock with ami~ture of malt and an enzymic preparation ~rom Aspergillus awamori mould fungus containing xylanase and~ -~lucanase, is protected by USSR Inventor~s Certificate No.467,9Z9, cl~G 12c 7/04 published on December 25, 1974. ~his prepara-kion hydrolyzes xylane and ~ -glucane~ whereby the yield of eth~l alcohol is increased by 2 to 2.5 per cent~ However, the application o~ the above en~ymic preparation enables one to substitute malt by 30 to 35 per cent only.
Known in the art are some methods o~ cellulose process-ing in the presence o~ highly puri~ied, concentrated or immobilized enzymes obtained from the cultures o~ microor-.
~3~77 ganisms grown by the submerged cultivation method, e.g~,~richoderma viride cult~re /c~. US Patent No. 3,542,580, cl.C 1~d 13~04 pub].ished ~ebrua.ry 15, 1972/. Canadian Pat-ent ~o.975,313, cl. 195-16 pu~lished on February 23, 1972, discloses a process for treating starch and protein-con-taining vegetable material with proteolytic enzymes, whereas ~rench Patent No-2,382,497, cl. C 12c 11/12 publish-ed on November 3, 1978 deals with a process for producing ethyl alcohol by virtue o~ cellulose fermenting under the e~ect o~ a miæed culture at a temperature of 50 to 65C
and the pH of 7 to 8. However, this patent fails to speci~y what producers are employed-It is an e~sential object of the present invention tos~arch for such an enzymic preparation ~hat would contain the required complex of h~drolytic enzymes capable o~ hydro-lyzing the nonam~laceous portion of the raw stock into fer-mentable sugars, thereby increasing the yield o~ ethyl alcohol.
~ he above object is acoomplished due to the provision o~ a novel enzymic preparation~ containing a complex of hydrolytic enzymes produced by a mould fungi ~richoderma koningii which is capable o~ more complete hydrolysis of amylaceous raw stock-According to the present invention, a process for pro-ucing ebhyl aloohol ~rom amylaceous raw stock by ibs hydro-,.
