Problems solved by technology

The research on erythritol in our country is relatively late, and the currently used strains include Torula, Torulopsis, and Candida, etc., but the yield is mostly low, there are many by-products, and the production technology is relatively backward. The separation process of erythritol in liquid is complicated, and the purity of erythritol crystals is low, resulting in high production cost of erythritol
In terms of carbon source utilization, cornstarch fermentation is mainly used to produce erythritol in industrial production, which has the disadvantages of high cost, low conversion rate, long production cycle, darker color of fermentation liquid, and complicated separation.
Japanese scholars have studied the production method of using glycerol and alkanes as fermentation carbon sources to ferment and produce erythritol, but it has not yet been industrialized

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing erythritol by using broken rice. In the method, moniliellaacetoabutans (ATCC18455) is used as a production strain and broken rice sugar liquid is used as a fermentation substrate for preparing the high-purity erythritol; and the method comprises three steps, namely preparation of the broken rice sugar liquid, preparation of erythritol fermentation liquid and refining of an erythritol product. The erythritol has high transformation rate, short fermentation period and stable fermentation performance, and has no byproducts such as glycerol and the like; the method reduces the production cost, and has the advantages of low operating cost, small equipment space, high product yield, few impurities and simple process; and the purity of the final product reaches over 98 percent.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of enzyme engineering and microbial fermentation, and specifically relates to the use of Acetomyces esculentus ( Moniliella acetoabutans ATCC 18455) as the starting strain, using the broken rice sugar solution after enzymatic hydrolysis as the fermentation substrate to produce erythritol by fermentation. Background technique [0002] Erythritol is a four-carbon sugar alcohol with a sweetness of about 70% of sucrose. Its chemical name is 1,2,3,4-butanetriol and its molecular formula is C. 4 H 10 O 4 . Erythritol is widely distributed in nature and exists in mushrooms, alcohol, soy sauce, cheese, tissue fluids and body fluids of humans and animals. Because of the unique metabolism of erythritol in the human body, erythritol has many excellent physiological functions, such as zero calorie value, high tolerance, low side effects, suitable for diabetics, non-cariogenic properties , Scavenging free radical fun...
