Definitions

  • the present invention is directed to the broad field of enzyme process technology. More specifically the present invention is directed to a method for removing contaminants from resins, particularly ion exchange and fractionation resins by use of enzyme treatment. The present invention also is directed to a method of producing purified corn sweeteners, particularly corn syrup and high fructose corn syrup by use of resins previously cleaned with enzymes.
  • Resins provide a powerful tool in analytical chemistry for separation of organic or inorganic ionic or nonionic species.
  • the resins are typically contained within a column or vessel.
  • Resins are manufactured from substances such as cross linked polystyrene, which have been chemically cross linked together, also known as DVB (di-vinyl benzene), in both macroporous (large holed) and gel (small holed) forms. Additional resins used in food processing are formed from acrylates. Resins can typically be reused by regenerating the resin. Deactivation or fouling of the resin by contaminants can destroy the resin. In addition to thermal instability (desulfonation or loss of functionalization) ionic, particulate (sludge) and polymeric materials cause fouling.
  • An ion exchange resin is a synthetic organic polymer, often based on cross- linked polystyrene, that has been derivatized by the addition of charged groups to produce materials that will exchange counterions when suspended in aqueous solutions.
  • Cationic exchange resins have fixed acidic substituents based on, for example, sulfonic acid which is a strong acid exchanger or carboxylic acid which is a weak acid exchanger.
  • Anionic exchange resins have fixed substituents based on for example, quaternary ammonium or ethoxyamine groups or amines which are weak base exchangers. Other functional groups may be attached to the resin skeletin to provide more selective behavior.
  • the degree of derivatization and the extent of cross-linking of the resin determines the overall capacity for ion exchange.
  • a technique called chromatography is used to separate mixtures of substances based on their ability to partition between a liquid and solid phase.
  • Ion-exchange chromatography is defined as a type of chromatography in which a solid support is an ion- exchange material used to separate mixtures of charged molecules or ions. This can be carried out on a preparative scale or as a modifcation of High Pressure Liquid Chromatography.
  • Chromatographic separations depend on differences in exchange potential, elution agent, column length and loading, flow rate particle size and temperature. Chromatographic separations can be used for a wide variety of uses including the purifcation of corn sweeteners such as corn syrup (CSU) and High fructose corn syrup (HFCS). Corn sweeteners are manufactured by hydrolyzing corn starch. A dextrose equivalent (D.E.) number is given to the finished ingredient depending on the degree of conversion allowed in the reaction. The lower the number, the lower the degree of conversion. Higher numbers indicate more complete conversion with 92 D.E. indicating complete conversion from corn starch to dextrose (Corn Sugar). High fructose corn syrup can be enzyme converted to 97 D.E.
  • CSU corn syrup
  • HFCS High fructose corn syrup
  • Corn sweeteners have been used in ice-cream and yogurt fruit preparations for years. Two reasons dominate the list of reasons for corn sweetener incorporation. First, corn sweeteners can give desirable body or "chewiness" to finished products that sucrose alone can't provide. Second, certain corn sweeteners impart more sweetness per pound than sucrose so they are less expensive to use. Obviously, because of the great value of corn sweeteners an improved method to regenerate resins which can be used to prepare purified corn sweeteners would be of great benefit. Currently, Ion Exchange and fractionation chromatography are the methods of choice in purifying corn sweeteners, however, the columns or vessels which contain the resin frequently become contaminated and are difficult to clean.
  • the current method of choice used for regeneration of resins involves the use of chemicals.
  • the chemicals typically used include but not limited to: hydrochloric acid (HC1), sodium hydroxide (NaOH), ammonium hydroxide (NH 4 OH) and sodium carbomate (Na 2 CO 3 ).
  • HC1 hydrochloric acid
  • NaOH sodium hydroxide
  • NH 4 OH ammonium hydroxide
  • Na 2 CO 3 sodium carbomate
  • the present invention is especially well-suited for cleaning ion exchange and fractionation resins used to purify corn sweeteners.
  • the present invention relates to an enzymatic method used to clean resins, particularly ion exchange and fractionation resins.
  • the method can be used alone or in combination with chemical methods.
  • the method allows for improved production of liquids that contain contaminants as for example proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and residual unconverted starches that require fractionation or ion exchange treatment.
  • the invention also relates to a the use of resins for the production of corn sweeteners, in particular, corn syrup and high fructose corn syrup.
  • the present invention is directed to an enzymatic method of removing contaminants from resins, in particular ion-exchange and fractionation resins.
  • the enzymes are exposed to the contaminated resin and optionally recirculated through the resin for a particular time designated.
  • the amount of time the enzyme is recirculated is a production factor. The shorter the time allotted for treatment of the resin the larger the enzyme dose necessary to clean the resin.
  • the present invention can incorporate the novel use of enzymes in combination with traditional chemical treatment means to remove contaminants from resins.
  • Enzymes have a characteristic optimum pH at which their activity is maximal.
  • the pH-activity profiles of enzymes reflect the pH at which important proton-donating or proton-accepting groups in the enzyme catalytic site are in their required state of ionization.
  • the optimum pH of an enzyme is not necessarily identical with the pH of the normal surroundings, which may be just above or below the optimum pH.
  • the present invention can be served with exhisting proteases, lipases, carbohydrases and alpha amylases which operate at a p.H. of 1-9, more preferably between
  • Beta Glucanase (Finizym, Cereflo)
  • Lipase (Palatase, Lipozyme) Alpha Amylase (BAN, Termamyl Type L)
  • Multi-enzyme complexes include but are limited to: Alpha Amylase, Beta Glucanase, Protease (Ceremix) Carbohydrases (Viscozyme)
  • Protease/ Peptidase is defined as a class of enzymes which hydrolyze (breakdown) proteins into short chains, soluble peptides and amino acids.
  • Beta Glucanase is defined as a class of enzymes which hydrolyze beta glucans
  • the 1 ,4-beta and 1,3-beta designations refer to the chemical bonding between the carbon atoms in the molecule upon which the class of enzymes act upon.
  • Oligosaccharides are defined as short chains of dextrose molecules chemically bonded together. These chains are typically 3-5 glucose units in length.
  • Disaccharides are defined as two dextrose units linked together. These are only formed in minor amounts with beta glucanases.
  • Lipases are defined as a class of enzymes which hydrolyze both short and long chain fatty acids, from the 1,3-ester chemical bonding sites, into mono-or diglycerides and fatty acids.
  • Short chain triglycerides refer to triglycerides with sidechains with twelve carbon molecules or less, i.e. esters of lauric acid and below.
  • Long chain fatty acids refer to fatty acids with more than twelve carbon molecules i.e. esters above lauric acid.
  • Alpha amylases are defined as a class of enzymes which act at random to hydrolyze the alpha- l,4glucosidic lingages in amylose and amylopectin, resulting in the formation of soluble dextrins and oligosaccharides.
  • Alpha- 1 ,4-glucosidic linkage refers to the chemical bonding between the glucose molecules which compose starch. The number 1 carbon in one glucose molecule is bonded to the number 4 carbon of the adjoining carbon.
  • Amylose is strictly composed of alpha- 1 ,4-glucosidic linkages and is decomposed by alpha amylase.
  • Amylopectin is the second type of starch and is composed of both alpha- 1,4-glucosidic, and alpha- 1 ,6-glucosidic bonds.
  • Alpha amylases cannot break down 1,6 bonding, so amylopectin is more difficult to hydrolyze by alpha amylase.
  • Carbohydrase is defined as a broad class of enzymes which hydrolyze non- starch polysaccharides (beta- l ,4-alpha-l,4-alpha- 1,5). This class of enzymes includes: arabanasc, cellulase, beta-glucanase, hemi-cellulase, and xylanase.
  • Arabanase hydrolyzes arabans into oligoarabans and arabanose.
  • Cellulase hydrolyzes cellulose into oligocelluloses and cellubiose.
  • Hemi-cellulase hydrolyzes hemi-cellulose into oligopentosans and pentosans.
  • Xylanase hydrolyzes xylans into oligoxylans and xylose.
  • the optimum pH and temperature of each enzyme to be used is checked and, if possible, the enzymes are added in combination as a multienzyme complex.
  • the two enzymes are used in combination it is rare that both enzymes are used at their optimum pH and temperature. In this case a "common" overlap area where both enzymes have a relatively high activity is used. If the pH and temperature optimum of the two or more enzymes vary greatly then they are added successively. Typically, the two or more enzymes will be used in approximately the same ratio as the contaminant or contaminants.
