Problems solved by technology

[0006] (1) Use corn flour liquefaction liquid and co-ferment with some corn dregs, resulting in viscous fermented mash. At present, the total sugar of fermented mash is 17%-18%. If the total sugar of fermented mash is increased, the material liquid will become viscous If the temperature is further increased, the fermentation process requires too much energy for ventilation and stirring to achieve dissolved oxygen, and it is impossible to realize industrialization. In this way, the acid production of a single tank is limited to about 18%, which cannot be improved.
[0007] (2) Corn liquefaction liquid contains dextrin, oligosaccharides, oligosaccharides, maltose, isomaltose and other sugars, and contains different types of proteins, resulting in complex fermentation products and a variety of miscellaneous acids
[0008] (3) At present, the citric acid fermentation is over, and the Aspergillus niger mycelium balls in the fermented solid waste are mixed with the unusable corn dregs, which can only be dried and sent to the feed market, while the Aspergillus niger mycelium balls can be used to extract glucosamine and High value-added products such as sterols
[0009] (4) Since citric acid fermentation uses corn flour liquefied liquid as raw material, it is greatly affected by the quality of corn, such as the drying temperature of corn kernels, the place of origin of corn, the variety of corn, and the storage time of corn, etc. will all affect the carbon and nitrogen ratio in the corn liquefied liquid , causing the fermentation process to be unstable and affecting the production of citric acid
[0010] (5) At present, citric acid fermentation uses corn flour liquefaction liquid as raw material, which leads to difficulties in the measurement and control of dissolved oxygen and pH during the fermentation process, and the automatic control and continuous production of the fermentation process cannot be realized

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fermentation engineering, and relates to a method for generating citric acid by using starch saccharide fermentation to construct a high fermentation strength Aspergillus niger strain by genetic engineering. More specifically, it is a method for constructing a high fermentation intensity of Aspergillus niger strain by genetic engineering, adding other organic and inorganic nitrogen sources and necessary metal salt components by using starch sugar as fermentation carbon source to produce citric acid by fermentation. Background technique [0002] Citric acid is a common organic acid that is widely used in food and beverage, pharmaceutical, chemical, and cosmetic industries, and is currently the most demanded organic acid in the world. [0003] In 1784, C.W. Scheler used calcium citrate precipitation to obtain citric acid. At the end of the 19th century, the biological fermentation method took shape. In 19...
