Abstract

The invention discloses a novel pre-cooking method for alcohol production, and belongs to the technical field of alcohol production methods. The novel method comprises the following major steps: blending corn flour, conducting primary shear heating by virtue of a steam ejector, conducting pre-cooking, conducting secondary shear heating by virtue of the steam ejector, conducting cooking, conducting flash evaporation, conducting liquefying, conducting saccharifying, decreasing temperature and conveying an obtained material to a fermenting process. In a conventional alcohol production process, primary heating in a fermenting mash cooking and liquefying stage is conducted by directly filling steam into a pre-cooking tank for implementing heating, which causes shortcomings that corn particles in fermenting mash are easily clotted and are not conducive to liquefying. According to the novel method provided by the invention, the fermenting mash is directly ejected by steam through the steam ejector, so that firstly, a shear effect is taken on the fermenting mash, which is conducive to the dissolving and liquefying of starch particles, secondly, the method is beneficial for full heating and sterilizing, and thirdly, the method is capable of reducing a sugar residue rate, enhancing a starch extraction effect of the corn flour and improving a conversion rate and fermented alcohol yield in subsequent saccharification; and meanwhile, with the declination of residual sugar, color grade of feed, as a by-product, is improved, and the color grade of the feed is an important factor affecting feed cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of alcohol production methods, in particular to a new method for alcohol production and precooking. Background technique [0002] The corn dry base starch content is 70% to 72%. Starch is divided into two parts by hot water treatment: one part is very soluble in warm water, the viscosity of the aqueous solution is small, and there is unstable, which can be precipitated after standing, called amylose; the other part is insoluble in warm water , Only under heating conditions can it be dissolved in water and form sticky dextrin, which is called amylopectin. Regardless of amylopectin or amylose, its molecular structure is based on glucose as the basic unit. In general starch granules, the amount of amylose is less, about 20%. [0003] Starch is a white tiny granule, insoluble in cold water and organic solvents, inside the granule is a very complex crystalline structure, under the observation of a microscope, ...
