Definitions

  • the present invention belongs to the technical field of food industry by-product treatment and recovery, more specifically it belongs to the field of treatment and recovery of brewing industry by-products, specifically the residual spent grains from brewing process, i.e., the mash- ing residue consisting of malt husks and other insoluble parts remaining from the mashing process.
  • Brewer' s spent grains constitute the main by-prod- uct of the brewing industry, accounting for about 85% of the total waste from the brewing process. On average, the annual production of brewer's spent grains is about 40 million tons, of which about 8 million are produced in Europe alone and 240, 000 t/year in Italy. Only 30% of brewer's spent grains are currently reused, mainly as feed in the livestock sector, while most are disposed of in landfills.
  • Cellulose is used in a variety of sectors, for example, in the production of paper and cardboard, or as an additive in polymeric materials, or even in the production of bioethanol; cellulose can also be converted into deriva- tives such as cellophane, rayon, cellulose acetate, typi- cally used in textiles, for the production of plastics, var- ious consumer products, etc.
  • Hemicellulose and lignin are typically regarded as low-quality and low-value by-products, yet they can be used as substrates in bio-refineries for the production of a very wide range of bio-products of industrial interest, such as raw materials for chemicals, additives, biofuels and even energy .
  • hemicellulose conversion processes have been developed for the production of ethanol, xylitol, butanediol, polyhydroxyalkanoates, organic acids (succinic acid, butyric acid, etc. ) , furfural (Chandel et al, Bioconversion of hemicellulose into ethanol and value-added products, 2018) ; in this case, the extraction of hemicellulose in the form of monomeric sugars is required.
  • Also known are uses of hemicellulose in macromolecule form as a source of new materials, with special reference to composite materi- als .
  • lignin Possible uses include: the use of depol- ymerized lignin in polyf unct ional aromatic monomers for use as a raw material in the polymer industry; the use in mac- romolecule form as an additive, or in polymer mixtures, or composites in the synthesis of copolymers; the use of lignin as a source of carbon-based materials such as carbon fibers.
  • lignin there is, however, a particular need to obtain high-quality lignin and hemicellulose, i.e., with a high degree of purity, which can be directly reused for other purposes in a wide variety of production sectors, without the need for further processing.
  • Patent application WO 2020/214502 Al discloses a process for extracting the spent grains from which a protein fraction and a fiber-rich fraction are isolated; separation is done using a classifier mill. The fibrous fraction is then processed into paper material for packaging; in one possible form of implementing the method, preliminary drying of the spent grains to moisture values less than or equal to 70% is provided.
  • Methods are also known for recovering the protein component and cellulose, in the form of nanofibers, by al- kaline treatment of dried brewer's spent grains; other known methods allow the recovery of hemicellulose alone in hydro- lyzed form (Mussatto et al., Chemical characterization and liberation of pentose sugars from brewer' s spent grain, Jour- nal of Chemical Technology and Biotechnology, 2006) , of cel- lulose alone (hydrolyzed and non-hydrolyzed) (Mussatto et al., Optimum operating conditions for brewer' s spent grain soda pulping, Carbohydrate Polymers, 2006; Mussatto et al., Effect of hemicellulose and lignin on enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose from brewer' s spent grain, Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 2008) and lignin alone (Mussatto et al. , Lignin recovery from bre
  • Patent application WO 2020/234761 Al describes a process for recovering only the components of the lignocel- lulosic structure (lignin, hemicellulose, cellulose) from biomass, including brewer's spent grains.
  • This process in- volves the use of deep eutectic extraction (DES) solvents, but these are very expensive, especially in view of an in- dustrial-scale application.
  • DES deep eutectic extraction
  • the use of choline acetate in combination with glycolic acid is contemplated; disadvantageously, both gly- colic acid and the direct precursor of choline acetate, cho- line hydroxide, have toxic properties for humans and the environment.
  • the process illustrated in WO 2020/234761 Al involves preliminary drying of the spent grains, and their components are selectively isolated using additional organic solvents (ethanol) , which increases the costs associated with the process.
  • Another currently known process for recovering cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin from brewer's spent grains involves the use of ionic liquids as the lignin ex- traction solvent (Outeirino et al., A novel approach to the biorefinery of brewery spent grain, Process Biochemistry; Biorefining brewery spent grain polysaccharides through biotuning of ionic liquids , Carbohydrate Polymers, 2019) .
  • the use of such ionic solvents entails economic disadvantages due to their high cost, all the more so in view of indus- trial-scale applications; moreover, this method is limited to obtaining only lignin in macromolecule form and cellulose and hemicellulose in hydrolyzed form.
  • Patent US 10240006 B2 discloses a method for iso- lating functionalized lignin from lignocellulosic biomass by hydrolysis under supercritical conditions combined with re- active extraction. The method, however, is limited to ob- taining only lignin in macromolecule form, and cellulose and hemicellulose in hydrolyzed form.
  • Patent application US 5430142 A relates to a pro- cess for the isolation of functionalized xylans from ligno- cellulosic biomass by reactive extraction.
  • this process involves preliminary delignification of the biomass by an organosolv process and/or treatment by hypochlorites, which can have significant negative environmental impacts.
  • fractionation refers to the subdivision of a heterogeneous product, such as indeed brewer's spent grains, into the fractions of homogeneous component elements, namely, in the present case, protein, cellulose, hemicellu- lose and lignin.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a technique for deconstructing, separating, and integrally recovering the components of brewer's spent grains, thus enhancing the value of these waste by-products, making it possible to reuse them in other processes, and reintroducing them into a production cycle.
  • a second object of the present invention is to provide a process for recovering the components of brewer' s spent grains that does not require prior dewatering, drying, or desiccation of the wet spent grains resulting from the brewing process, so as to reduce costs, both from an energy and economic point of view.
  • Further object of the present invention is to pro- vide a process for the fractionation of the essential com- ponents constituting the brewer's spent grains, also func- tionalized, with a high degree of purity.
  • Not least object of the present invention is to provide a process for the separation of the protein component of brewer' s spent grains and for the separation of the lig- nocellulosic component into cellulose, functionalized hemi- cellulose, and lignin, possibly functionalized.
  • the present invention comprises a reactive extraction step i.e., with simultaneous function- alization and extraction (by precipitation) of hemicellu- lose, thus enabling hemicellulose to be obtained in the form of a high-quality (pure) and functionalized macromolecule, increasing its value for biorefineries.
  • the process includes a combination of the functionalization and extrac- tion by precipitation of lignin, for example, by means of alkyl-type organic compounds (preferably hydroxyalkyls) .
  • the treatment process object of the present invention can be implemented semi-continu- ously or continuously, so as to improve efficiency and ensure absolute benefits from the point of view of the safety of operators .
  • fractions that are isolated by means of the present process exhibit a high degree of purity, being basically composed of a homogeneous component (protein, cellulose, hemicellulose or lignin) without a significant presence of other foreign elements.
  • Fig. 1 shows a flow chart of a form of implemen- tation of the process for treating brewer' s spent grains according to the present invention.
  • Entering step (A) are the spent grains (1) , water and an inorganic base (NaOH) , and exiting this step are the proteins (2) and fibers (3) , which then enter step (B) where they are combined with water and an inorganic base (NaOH) , following this step, cellulose (4) , and hemicellulose (5) and lignin (6) are obtained solubilized.
  • Hemicellulose (5) and lignin (6) supply step (C) where an organic compound is added that selectively reacts with hemicellulose (5) , and further downstream, functionalized hemicellulose (7) and solubilized lignin (6) are obtained, the latter feeds step (D) , together with a strong acid (11) and produces a solid fraction containing lignin (8) , finally obtaining water and salts (9) .
  • step (D) functionalized lignin can be obtained if an organic compound is substituted in place of the strong acid.
  • the present pro- cess of fractionation of the components of wet brewers' spent grains takes place in a single reactor and includes the following main steps :
  • step (A) wet brewer' s spent grains resulting from a brewing process are fed into a discontinuous, semi- continuous or continuous reactor operating at atmospheric pressure and are mixed with a fluid consisting of water and an inorganic base, preferably sodium hydroxide (NaOH) .
  • a fluid consisting of water and an inorganic base, preferably sodium hydroxide (NaOH) .
  • the volume of water is such that the concentration in water of the inorganic base, preferably sodium hydroxide, is between 2, 5% and 6% m/V, considering a quantity of inor- ganic base between 2, 5% and 6% by weight relative to the dry matter of the spent grains; optimum results are obtained with a quantity of inorganic base between 4, 5% and 5, 5% by weight.
  • the process temperature is maintained between 30 °C and 90°C, preferably between 50° and 70°C.
  • the mixture is maintained under intermittent or continuous stirring for be- tween 0.5 and 5 hours, preferably at least 2 hours.
  • step (A) is preceded by the grinding of wet brewer's spent grains. Grinding facili- tates the mixing of the spent grains themselves with the liquid extracting medium during step (A) and, consequently, subsequent separation processes.
  • the brewer' s spent grains treated with sodium hydroxide in an aqueous solution result in a mixture consisting essentially of a first liquid frac- tion comprising solubilized proteins, and a first solid frac- tion, the latter comprising the lignocellulosic fibrous fraction of the brewer's spent grains, which in turn consists of hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin.

  • the liquid fraction is used in the next step (C) .
  • the liquid fraction from the previous step (B) is mixed inside the reactor with an organic compound.
  • the concentration of the organic compound in the liquid fraction is between 1% and 9% m/V, preferably between 4% and 6% m/V.

  • the mixture can be kept under intermittent or continuous stirring for between 0.5 and 2 hours, preferably at least 1.5 hours.
  • the resulting mixture consists essentially of a third liquid fraction containing solubilized lignin and a third solid fraction comprises functionalized hemicellulose.
  • dur- ing step (C) a reactive separation of the hemicellulose oc- curs by means of the organic compound: the hemicellulose contained in the liquid fraction is functionalized by ester- ification, etherification, and amidation, and as the reac- tion progresses, precipitation of the functionalized hemi- cellulose occurs due to the progressive decrease in the sol- ubility characteristics of the derivative.
  • the organic compound used is benzoyl chloride, which func- tionalizes hemicellulose by esterification.
  • step (C) the separation between the function- alized hemicellulose and the liquid fraction is refined by conventional methods such as filtration or centrifugation.
  • the precipitate obtained is washed with water, or ethanol, or both, to remove possible residual organic compound and other impurities.
  • the liquid fraction is used in the next step (D) .
