Description

Method for increasing conversion rate of alcohol fermentation starch by adding acetic acid
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for improving the conversion rate of starch by alcohol fermentation by adding acetic acid, belonging to the field of alcohol fermentation industry.
Background
Due to the decrease in global oil reserves and the severe air pollution caused by the use of fossil energy, the biomass fuel market is actively developing in many countries worldwide including the united states, brazil, european union, china, japan, canada, india, etc. Compared with the traditional fossil energy, the fuel alcohol has the advantages of cleanness, renewability and the like, and can be directly used as automobile fuel or added into gasoline (ethanol gasoline) for use. The ethanol is added into the gasoline to improve the combustion performance, the power performance and the environmental protection performance of the gasoline, mainly shows that the oxygen content of the gasoline is increased, the octane number and the anti-explosion index are improved, the aromatic hydrocarbon content of the gasoline is reduced, and the contents of hydrocarbon, NOx and CO in the automobile exhaust are reduced. In addition, the development of the fuel alcohol industry can drive the coordinated development of industries such as manufacturing industry and agriculture, and the like, and drive the economic growth. Thus, fuel alcohol processes have been vigorously developed on a global scale. Over the past few decades, global fuel alcohol production has increased dramatically, from less than 80 million tons (1975) to 7700 million tons in 2015. The fuel alcohol industry in China starts late, but under the promotion of national policies, the production scale is continuously enlarged, the yield is rapidly increased, and the yield is leaping the third place in the world at present (about 200 ten thousand tons in 2015).
The fuel alcohol is mainly produced by a fermentation method, and the general production process comprises the following steps: 1) pretreating raw materials to obtain fermentable sugar; 2) the saccharomyces cerevisiae utilizes fermentable sugar to generate alcohol; 3) the fermentation liquor is distilled, rectified and dehydrated to obtain the finished product of fuel alcohol. In the alcohol fermentation process, besides being utilized by the saccharomyces cerevisiae to generate main product alcohol, the fermentable sugar also synthesizes cell structural substances and other metabolic byproducts, and in addition, a part of sugar remains in the fermentation liquor, so that the saccharomyces cerevisiae cannot be completely utilized. This results in less than 100% starch conversion during fermentation. If measures can be taken to make more sugar available for alcohol synthesis, i.e. to increase the starch conversion, the profit of the alcohol production enterprise can be significantly increased. Taking a fuel alcohol enterprise producing 10 ten thousand tons per year as an example, even if the starch conversion rate is improved by 1%, the profit can be increased by about 490 thousand per year (based on 4900 yuan/ton of fuel alcohol), and the profit is very considerable for the alcohol industry with lower profit margin.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a method for improving starch conversion rate in alcohol fermentation, which is to add acetic acid into a fermentation system containing starchy materials so as to improve the starch conversion rate.
In one embodiment of the present invention, acetic acid is added to a saccharified solution after saccharification to a final concentration of 300 to 900mg/L, and then a seed solution is inoculated for fermentation.
In one embodiment of the invention, the starchy material is a mixed material of one or more of cassava, corn, wheat and the like.
The second purpose of the invention is to provide an alcohol fermentation method, which comprises the following process steps:
(1) mixing the crushed starchy raw materials with stirring water, adding liquefying enzyme, and heating for liquefaction;
(2) cooling after liquefaction, and adding saccharifying enzyme for saccharification;
(3) cooling after saccharification is finished, wherein the cooled saccharification liquid is divided into two parts, one part is directly used for preparing seed liquid, and the other part is added with acetic acid; inoculating the prepared seed liquid into the saccharification liquid added with acetic acid, and starting alcoholic fermentation;
(4) after fermentation, alcohol is obtained through distillation.
In one embodiment of the invention, the starchy raw material and the stirring water are mixed in a ratio of 1: 2-5.
In one embodiment of the invention, the liquefying enzyme includes, but is not limited to, a high temperature resistant alpha-amylase.
In one embodiment of the invention, the liquefaction is carried out by adding high temperature resistant alpha-amylase into 15-20U/g starch, and reacting at 90-95 ℃ for 90-140 min.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the saccharification is carried out by adding saccharifying enzyme into 120-160U/g starch, and saccharifying at 45-60 deg.C for 20-60 min.
In one embodiment of the invention, the starchy raw material is one or more of cassava, corn, wheat and the like.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the amount of acetic acid added is 200 to 700mg/L of the saccharified solution.
The invention also provides the application of the method in preparing the alcohol-containing food or beverage.
Has the advantages that: according to the invention, the conversion rate of starch is improved to more than 89.6-90% by adding acetic acid. Compared with the prior art, the method has the greatest advantages that the starch conversion rate in the alcohol fermentation process can be improved, the generation of the byproduct glycerol can be reduced (about 20 percent can be reduced), and the added acetic acid cost is far lower than the profit generated by producing more alcohol (1 kg of acetic acid can improve the alcohol yield by about 17kg, the price of acetic acid is about 3 yuan/kg, and the price of alcohol is about 4.6 yuan/kg, so the cost of adding 1kg of acetic acid is 3 yuan, and the value of improving the alcohol yield is about 78 yuan). Because the current alcohol production technology is mature, the alcohol production scale can reach thousands of tons, therefore, even if the conversion rate is improved by 1-2%, the increased profit is considerable for alcohol production enterprises, the process of the invention is simple to operate, the yield stability among batches is good, and the invention has important promoting significance for the technical scheme of the alcohol production industry.
