Problems solved by technology

In my country, molasses is mainly used for alcohol fermentation and yeast production. With the rising sugar price, the price of molasses is gradually increasing, and the cost of alcohol production is correspondingly increased. In addition, alcohol waste liquid with high COD and BOD poses a huge threat to the environment.

Embodiment 1

[0033] (1) Preparation of Aspergillus oryzae spores

[0034] Streak-inoculate the frozen-preserved Aspergillus oryzae spores on the slant medium of the PDA test tube, culture at a temperature of 30°C for 4 days, then streak-inoculate the Aspergillus oryzae spores on the slant medium of the PDA test tube, and repeat the passage in the same way 3 to 4 generations of activated strains, until the spores completely cover the mycelium surface.

[0035] (2) Preparation of Aspergillus oryzae spore suspension

[0036] The mature Aspergillus oryzae spores obtained in step (1) were eluted with sterile physiological saline, and the spore eluate was treated in an ultrasonic cleaner for 10 seconds to fully break up the spores, and then filtered through 4 layers of gauze to remove the mycelium. Slowly add the seed medium to the filtered spore suspension to a final spore concentration of 10 7 ~10 6 individual / mL.

[0037](3) Fix Aspergillus oryzae spores on a polyurethane foam (low-densit...

Embodiment 2

[0048] Others are the same as in Example 1, the side length of the polyurethane foam (low-density sponge) carrier is changed to 4 mm, the acid-treated molasses is diluted with water to reduce the total sugar concentration of the molasses to 80 g / L, the pH is adjusted to 5.0, and sterilized under high temperature and high pressure. The liquid volume of the fermentation broth is 50mL / 250mL Erlenmeyer flask, the inoculum volume of immobilized bacteria is 10% (V / V), the temperature is 30°C, the shaker speed is 200 rpm, and the fermentation is for 10 days.

[0049] As determined by the ferric chloride colorimetric method, the concentration of kojic acid in the fermentation broth was 8.387g / L.

Embodiment 3

[0051] Others are the same as in Example 1, the side length of the polyurethane foam (low-density sponge) carrier is changed to 6mm, the acid-treated molasses is diluted with water to reduce the total sugar concentration of the molasses to 100g / L, the pH is adjusted to 6.0, and it is sterilized under high temperature and high pressure. The liquid volume of the fermentation broth is 60mL / 250mL Erlenmeyer flask, the inoculum volume of immobilized bacteria is 15% (V / V), the temperature is 32°C, the shaker speed is 220rpm, and the fermentation is for 10 days.

[0052] As determined by the ferric chloride colorimetric method, the concentration of kojic acid in the fermentation broth was 7.795g / L.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing kojic acid by using molasses fermented by immobilized aspergillus oryzae. The molasses is taken as a raw material, and the immobilized aspergillus oryzae is adopted to ferment the molasses which is subjected to acidolysis pretreatment. By carrying out acid treatment on the molasses at an earlier stage, on one hand, impurities such as colloid, heavy metals and nitrite which are adverse to microbial growth metabolism in the molasses can be removed; on the other hand, cane sugar in the molasses can be prompted to be converted into monosaccharide such as glucose and fructose, which are easily utilized by microorganisms. Fermentation is carried out by adopting the immobilized aspergillus oryzae; new immobilization method and fermentation condition are provided, so that the fermentation period is shortened; the fermentative capability of strains is improved; hypermorphosis of thalli is controlled to a certain extent; the method can be recycled, and also has strong anti-bacteria capacity. In a word, byproducts in the sugarcane industry can be comprehensively utilized to produce the kojic acid; the method has the advantages of being low in cost, simple in steps, easy to control and the like; the problems of increase of requirements on the kojic acid at present, low yield and high cost can be effectively solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of organic acid production, in particular to a method for producing kojic acid by using immobilized aspergillus oryzae to ferment molasses. Background technique [0002] Molasses is a by-product of the production process of the sugar industry. It is a dark brown viscous liquid left after repeated cooking and crystallization of massecuite. It is rich in sugars, proteins, vitamins, biotin, amines, pigments, and phenols. Classes and other soluble substances. Molasses contains 30% to 40% of sucrose, 12% to 24% of invert sugar, 9% to 11% of colloid, and 10% to 20% of ash. It is rich in nutrients and is a renewable resource with great application potential. my country is the third largest sugarcane planting country in the world after Brazil and India, and the South Sugar Factory has very rich sugarcane molasses resources. According to the statistics of the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2011, the planting are...
