Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of reducing the self-heating propensity of a microbial biomass which contains significant amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids.
- Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) containing lipids are of high interest in the feed, food and pharmaceutical industry.
- Fatty acids are classified based on the length and saturation characteristics of the carbon chain.
- Fatty acids are termed short chain, medium chain, or long chain fatty acids based on the number of carbons present in the chain.
- Fatty acids are termed saturated fatty acids when no double bonds are present between the carbon atoms.
- Fatty acids are termed unsaturated fatty acids when double bonds are present.
- Unsaturated long chain fatty acids are monounsaturated when only one double bond is present.
- Unsaturated long chain fatty acids are polyunsaturated when more than one double bond is present.
- PUFAs can be produced by microorganisms in a fermentation process.
- the biomass of the PUFA-containing microorganism is collected before being processed to extract the PUFA oil contained within.
- the biomass of the PUFA-containing microorganism can also be used directly as a product, particularly in the feed industry.
- PUFA-containing compositions are susceptible to self heating. For example, during storage or transportation, the temperature of the biomass in the container or package can increase spontaneously, some will ultimately result in unexpected explosions and fires.
- a composition comprising more than 30 wt% vegetable oil and at least 50 wt% microbial cells, wherein said microbial cells comprise one or more type of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) having at least 20 carbon atoms and at least three double bonds, wherein the microbial cells has at least 20 wt% PUFAs, and wherein the composition’s self-heating onset temperature is at least 250 °C.
- the microbial cells comprise at least 30 wt% PUFAs.
- the microbial cells comprise at least 40 wt% PUFAs.
- the microbial cells comprise at least 50 wt% PUFAs.
- the PUFA is an w-3 or an w-6 PUFA.
- the microbial cells are ruptured.
- composition comprises more than 40 wt% vegetable oil.
- the composition comprises more than 30 wt% vegetable oil and remainder wt% microbial cells.
- the vegetable oil is canola oil.
- the microbial cells are of the genus Mortierella , Schizochytrium , Thraustochytrium , Aurantiochytrium , or Crypthecodinium.
- the onset of composition’s self-heating is measured by heating the composition packed in a 6cm 3 sample tube in a Grewe-Oven with a heating rate of lK/min and an airflow of 2L/min.
- the microbial cells are in the form of a biomass.
- the microbial cells are a single strain of microorganism.
- the composition’s self-heating onset temperature is at least 270 °C.
- the composition’s self-heating onset temperature is at least 290 °C.
- the composition’s self-heating onset temperature is at least 300 °C.
- the microbial cells are of the genus Mortierella, Schizochytrium , Thraustochytrium , Aurantiochytrium , or Crypthecodinium.
- the onset of composition’s self-heating is measured by heating the composition packed in a 6cm 3 sample tube in a Grewe- Oven with a heating rate of lK/min and an airflow of 2L/min.
- the microbial cells are in the form of a biomass.
- the microbial cells are a single strain of microorganism.
- the composition’s self-heating onset temperature is at least 270 °C.
- the composition’s self-heating onset temperature is at least 290 °C.
- the composition’s self-heating onset temperature is at least 300 °C.
- the patent or application file contains at least one drawing executed in color.
- Fig. 1 shows the flowability of four compositions which are made of a mixture of ruptured microbial cell biomass and vegetable oil at different ratios, ranging from 30%:70% to 70%:30% (biomass: vegetable oil).
- Fig. 2 shows the temperature change curves which were measured over time both inside the 6 cm 2 testing vessel and in the Grewe-oven and the onset temperature of the first self heating event.
- the testing vessel contains 50% microbial cell biomass and 50% vegetable oil.
- Fig. 6 shows the temperature change curves which were measured over time both inside the 6 cm 2 testing vessel and in the Grewe-oven and the onset temperature of the first self- heating event.
- the testing vessel contains 30% microbial cell biomass and 70% vegetable oil.
- Fig. 7 shows the temperature change curves which were measured over time both inside the 6 cm 2 testing vessel and in the Grewe-oven and the onset temperature of the first self- heating event.
- the testing vessel contains 100% vegetable oil.
- Fig. 8 shows the changes of the onset temperature of the first self-heating event in connection with the changes of the wt% of microbial cell biomass.
- Dried PUFA-containing oleaginous biomass is known to undergo oxidization thus is susceptible to spontaneous self-heating.
- Such self-heating problem is especially significant in microbial cells which contains long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA).
- LC-PUFA long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids
- the higher PUFA content there is in a composition the more likely that the composition is susceptible to spontaneous self-heating.
- PUFAs with 20 or more carbon atoms have higher susceptibility to self-heating.
- the susceptibility of a biomass increases with higher number of double bonds of the PUFAs.
- PUFAs with 3 or more double bonds have higher susceptibility to self-heating.
- One indicator of the self-heating propensity of a composition is the onset temperature for a spontaneous temperature increase to occur when the composition is heated up at a linear rate.
- a sudden increase (“spike”) of temperature indicates that the composition heats up spontaneously by itself instead of by the external heating source.
- the higher of this onset temperature is for a composition, the less susceptible that the composition is to self-heating.
- the lower of this onset temperature is for a composition, the more susceptible that the composition is to self-heating. Any process which can significantly increase the onset temperature of a composition and thus cause self-heating to occur at a higher temperature is considered an effective method for reducing the risk of self-heating,
