Embodiment 1

[0016] Fermentation using air-lift fermenters such as figure 1 , the aspect ratio is 6:1, and the working volume is 1L. The inert gas is introduced from the bottom of the reactor, and a wire mesh is used as a gas distributor. The gas is provided by steel cylinders, and the flow rate is controlled by a rotameter. The magnetic field is provided by a 100-turn energized solenoid with a strength of 3.14mT. Ethanol and water in the exhaust gas are collected through condensation. The initial glucose concentration of the fermentation was 150g / L, the yeast inoculation amount was 1g / L, and the fermentation temperature was 37°C. CO was introduced into the bottom of the fermenter 2 as a carrier gas. In the early stage of fermentation, keep a low ventilation rate and play a stirring role. When the ethanol concentration in the fermented mash reaches 40g / L, the carrier gas ventilation rate is increased to 3vvm, and the stripping tail gas is collected by a condenser with a condensation ...

Embodiment 2

[0018] The same equipment as in Example 1 was used. The magnetic field is provided by a permanent magnet with a strength of 1.15mT. Ethanol and water in the exhaust gas are collected through condensation. The initial glucose concentration of the fermentation was 220 g / L, the yeast inoculation amount was 5 g / L, and the fermentation temperature was 35°C. Nitrogen was introduced into the bottom of the fermenter as a carrier gas. In the early stage of fermentation, keep a low ventilation rate and play a stirring role. When the ethanol concentration in the fermented mash reaches 40 g / L, the carrier gas ventilation rate is increased to 3vvm, and the stripping tail gas is collected by a condenser with a condensation temperature below -20°C to collect the removed ethanol solution. When the glucose concentration in the fermented mash is lower than 10g / L, the fermentation ends, and the end time is 32 hours, which is 11 hours shorter than the normal fermentation time and 4 hours short...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing ethanol by magnetic-field-assisted gas stripping fermentation. According to the invention, fermentation equipment is placed in a magnetic field environment in the process of preparing ethanol by a gas stripping fermentation method, wherein the magnetic field environment can be provided through permanent magnet or dense electrified solenoids, and the intensity of the magnetic field is in a range from 1 to 5mT. In the invention, the fermentation equipment is placed in the magnetic field environment in the process of preparing ethanol by the gas stripping fermentation method, thus on one hand, a positive effect is generated in vapor-liquid balance of an ethanol-water binary system, and the content of ethanol in a vapor phase is increased, thereby improving gas stripping efficiency; and on the other hand, the magnetic field can promote the growth of strains, thereby improving the fermentation intensity through a compound action.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ethanol fermentation industry, in particular to a method for producing ethanol by magnetic field-assisted gas stripping fermentation. Background technique [0002] Ethanol, commonly known as alcohol, is an important organic chemical raw material and solvent. Especially in recent years, with the depletion of oil resources and the deterioration of the environment, using ethanol as an alternative fuel has become a national strategy. At present, the industrial production cost of fuel ethanol is too high to compete with gasoline. [0003] The ethanol fermentation process is a typical product inhibition process. With the increase of ethanol concentration in the fermentation process, the fermentation intensity gradually decreases, so the production capacity is low and the water consumption is large. For this reason, processes such as vacuum fermentation, extraction fermentation, membrane separation fermen...
