Tussah cocoon shell bio-enzyme degumming method and device

Abstract

The invention discloses a tussah cocoon shell bio-enzyme degumming method which is composed of the steps that: clear water is added into a degumming tank body; the clear water in the degumming tank body is heated to 45-50 DEG C; soda ash is added into the degumming tank body, and the mixture is well mixed, such that the pH value of the water in a cocoon boiling tank reaches 9.0; 2709 alkaline protease is added into the degumming tank body, such that a degumming liquid is obtained; cocoon shells are added into the degumming tank body, and are completely immersed in the degumming liquid; the mixture is continuously stirred, and degumming temperature is maintained at 45-50 DEG C; soaking is carried out for 3-4h; when silk residual gum is lower than or equal to 3%, the silk is fetched, and degumming is finished. When cocoon shells are subjected to a degumming process by using the tussah cocoon shell bio-enzyme degumming method, production cost is low, degummed silk quality is good, and sericin in the degumming liquid can be recovered.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patented technology allows creation of pure protein from animal hides while minimizing wastewater disposal issues. By selecting an appropriate type of proteolue called histidase, which breaks down fibrous materials like spun threads or woolen yarn bundles, they become soluble into liquids instead of being absorbed onto other parts of their body. These processes help reduce pollution and improve nutritional value. Additionally, these techniques allow for efficient degradations of carbohydrate-rich substances such as celluloskeleton polysaccharide (CSP) gums found naturally within food crops.

Problems solved by technology

Technics described for this patented problem involve various factors including environmental concerns associated with producing or purifying silks from spiders' wax sheaths during manufacturing processes like extracting fibers from them through cleanings made using different methods (scours) followed by solvent extraction techniques. These technical effects include improved energy utilization, reduced emissions caused by burning fossil fuels, increased production rates without requiring excessive maintenance work, efficient management of residues produced after the preparation steps, prevention against contaminants entering the factory, reduction of human exposure to harmful substances, and minimizing damage to equipment involved when manually removing covers worn down by users.
