Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of wort boiling systems and wort boiling processes in beer brewing processes, and particularly relates to a wort thin film mass transfer enhanced boiling system with efficient mass transfer with secondary steam in a wort turbulence film state and a low-heat-load boiling process adopting the wort thin film mass transfer enhanced boiling system.
Background
The brewing process of beer is mainly divided into a Wort preparation process in a hot section and a Wort fermentation process in a cold section, wherein the Wort preparation process is divided into unit operations such as saccharification, filtration, boiling, cyclone precipitation and the like, and the Wort Boiling (word Boiling) stage is the most energy-consuming unit operation in beer brewing.
Before the wort is oxygenated and used by the yeast cells as a nutrient solution for alcoholic fermentation, the wort must be boiled by a boiling system. Wort boiling is a complex process in which a wide range of chemical, physical, physicochemical and biochemical reactions take place. The purpose is mainly as follows: extraction and isomerization of hop components, formation of hot coagulum, formation of wort stabilized by sterilization of wort and inactivation of residual enzymes, maillard reaction, formation of some color components, removal of unwanted volatile aroma compounds, reduction of pH and water evaporation, etc. In this process: boiling strength is a main means for influencing the flavor of wort, and the evaluation of the thermal separation effect mostly takes the concentration of an aroma compound dimethyl sulfide (DMS) as an important index; however, strong boiling can subject the wort to an excessively high thermal load, which leads to an increase in carbonyl compounds [ marked by thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values ], and thus to an excessively rapid ageing of the beer.
The wort boiling unit is subjected to classical normal-pressure boiling (the total evaporation rate is 8-12 percent and even higher), high-pressure boiling (the total evaporation rate is 6-8 percent), low-pressure boiling (the total evaporation rate is 6-7 percent), low-pressure dynamic boiling (the total evaporation rate is 5 percent, a wort boiling form which is commonly used for beer brewing at the present stage) and low-heat load boiling (the heat load is further reduced by means of vacuum flash evaporation, steam stripping and the like), and the reduction of primary energy consumption (the low heat load) is a main pursuit target of the evolution of the wort boiling mode. The research shows that: during wort boiling, most of the reactions are only time and temperature dependent, such as: inactivation of enzymes, sterilization of wort, extraction and isomerization of hop compounds, coagulation of proteins, lowering of pH, reduction and formation of aroma compounds, etc., all without evaporation, simply maintaining the temperature of the hot wort at around the boiling point is sufficient to ensure that these reactions occur. In this process, it is a question of us how to accomplish the DMS separation at low total evaporation (below 1%, which ensures low thermal load and good balance of beer and good foam stability); in the cyclone precipitation stage of the boiled wort, as the wort is kept at high temperature, SMM (methyl methionine) in the wort can be decomposed into DMS continuously, and the DMS content in the boiled wort is increased, so that after the DMS formed in the boiling stage is separated efficiently, how to rapidly remove the DMS generated in the wort precipitation stage in the same system also provides new challenges for a new separation device.
For example, a wort boiling pan is disclosed in a chinese patent invention of ZL200910223168.8 (publication number CN 101709249) and a beer saccharification device using the same, which is characterized in that the pan bottom is an upwardly convex bottom, the convex bottom is provided with a steam heating jacket, a wort inlet pipe passes through the middle part of the convex bottom and opens in the pan body, the opening is upward, a wort distribution plate is reversely buckled above the opening, a gap for allowing wort to flow out is left between the wort distribution plate and the opening, wort flows on the jacket in a film manner during boiling, the evaporation area is large, and evaporation of substances with unfavorable taste is facilitated. The disadvantages of this device are: the secondary steam can not carry out effective mass transfer with the wort film in the boiling stage, and the heat load is high; vacuum flash evaporation cannot be performed due to the special structure of the device; the temperature is reduced because the boiled wort cannot be subjected to vacuum flash evaporation, and the heat load in the precipitation stage is further reduced.
For example, another chinese patent No. ZL200610050478.0 (CN 100398635C) discloses a wort flashing evaporation system, which is characterized in that a vacuum chamber is disposed behind the precipitation tank, the vacuum chamber is connected to a vacuum pump, and vacuum flashing is performed when wort passes through the vacuum chamber, so that DMS generated by SMM in the wort at a high temperature during the precipitation stage can be effectively removed, but since denaturation of protein and isomerization of hop components are required to be achieved at a temperature around the boiling point of wort for a certain time, it is worth mentioning that the boiling time can be shortened. The disadvantages of this system are: no effective mass transfer with secondary steam is possible; additional vacuum chambers and their associated systems are required; DMS formed in the boiling stage cannot be removed in time, and the heat load in the boiling stage is high; the temperature is reduced because the boiled wort cannot be subjected to vacuum flash evaporation, and the heat load in the precipitation stage is further reduced.
Finally, the traditional intensive boiling is changed, and a mode of slightly keeping the temperature lower than the boiling point is adopted to further reduce the primary energy consumption in the boiling stage, so that the heat load is reduced, the wort quality is improved, and the method becomes the research direction of a novel wort boiling system; the traditional boiling mode is abandoned, mass transfer of secondary steam with evaporation capacity less than 1% caused by consumption of DMS and primary energy is strengthened, effective separation of DMS is realized, and the method becomes a second choice.
