Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, with the further spread of the food crisis, the supply of corn as the main food has become increasingly tense, and cassava and dried melons have been limited in their wide application due to factors such as their small yield and high cost. Therefore, people have begun to devote themselves to the research of new raw materials for citric acid fermentation. To alleviate the pressure brought about by the food crisis

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for production of citric acid through fermentation of wheat B-starch. The method is characterized in that the method improves a conventional citric acid fermentation process with corn as a raw material by using the by-product B-starch produced during processing of wheat to partially replace corn for fermentation production of citric acid and comprises the procedures of slurry mixing, liquefaction, enzymatic hydrolysis, saccharification, filtration and fermentation, and through full liquefaction, enzymatic hydrolysis and saccharification of the wheat B-starch and filtration, the method allows the viscosity of feed liquid to be greatly reduced while allowing the conversion rate of the starch to substantially reach a theoretical value and overcomes the problems of poor mass transfer and bad dissolution of oxygen in deep aerobic fermentation process of the wheat B-starch. On such an occasion that grain raw materials are in shortage, the process utilizes the cheap wheat B-starch, so production cost of citric acid is substantially reduced, and the source of raw materials for citric acid is broadened.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for fermenting and producing citric acid, which is characterized by fermenting and producing citric acid by using B starch, a by-product separated from wheat processing, as a raw material. Background technique [0002] At present, the domestic citric acid industry mainly uses corn, dried melon, cassava, etc. Miscellaneous, directly crushed into corn flour, mixed with water in a certain proportion, under the action of amylase, after high-temperature jet liquefaction treatment, it becomes a liquefied liquid with good fluidity and easy utilization by bacteria, and enters the fermentation process. During the fermentation process, Citric acid is accumulated through the metabolism of Aspergillus niger species, and after the fermentation is completed, the fermentation broth containing citric acid is extracted and refined downstream to obtain a citric acid product. Corn dregs and mycelium dregs are produced as by-products dur...
