Problems solved by technology

[0004] All these enzymes are individually available in pure form on the market, but the disadvantage is that they are relatively expensive, thus increasing the cost of producing ethanol from wheat
In addition, the composition should be formulated from a single enzyme, which complicates the process

Embodiment 1

[0098] The selection of embodiment 1-Aspergillus strain

[0099] The ability of seven commercially available Aspergillus strains to produce glucoamylase by fermentation in a solid medium of wheat bran was studied in a comparative manner.

[0100] Tests were carried out with 50 g of fermentation medium in Erlenmeyer flasks. This medium contains 21.5 grams of wheat bran, 27.5 grams of water and 1 gram of wheat starch. The initial pH of this medium is 6.0-6.5. The medium is sterilized in an autoclave at 120°C for 20 minutes.

[0101] Each medium was inoculated with 2 × 10 per gram of initial dry matter 7spores of the strains to be tested. The spore age is 3 days. After fermenting for 40-50 hours, put the Erlenmeyer flask into an oven at 35°C. At the end of the fermentation, the fermentation medium was mixed with 150 ml of distilled water to make a solution of the obtained enzyme, and then the enzyme solution was recovered by filtration. The solution was centrifuged to rem...

Embodiment 3

[0116] Example 3: Production of glucoamylase with a pilot fermenter supplied by Fujiwara Corporation: The importance of maintaining medium humidity during fermentation

[0117] The experiment was carried out with a pilot fermenter and BCE wheat bran sold by Fujiwara Co., Ltd., Okayama, Japan. The difference from the fermenter used in Example 2 is in particular that this tank has a diameter of 0.66 m whereas the diameter of the INRA tank is 0.35 m. In this fermentor, 20 kg of a medium containing 55% water, prepared according to the wet bran mode described in Example 2, was required for cultivation at a thickness of 12 cm. Agitation is ensured by three vertical worms rotating at constant speed, which will mix the media in the rotating (5-10 rpm) tank. During the fermentation, as in the INRA tank of Example 2, the gas atmosphere was constantly renewed by conditioned air whose temperature, humidity and flow rate are shown in Table 4.

[0118] During this trial, called FII, t...

Embodiment 4

[0124] Example 4: Production of glucose starch in a 50 liter INRA pilot fermenter with agitator Enzymes: utility of steam for preheating of wheat bran and incubation in "sterile conditions"

[0125] This pilot fermenter is similar to the fermenter in WO-A-94 18306 and in Figure 4 of the above-mentioned article by A. Durand et al. This fermenter enables the direct treatment of wheat bran in the fermenter with steam in a preferred preparation mode on an industrial scale. In addition to sampling, the preparation, inoculation and cultivation of the cultures were also carried out under sterile conditions, making this test semi-sterile and different from the previous two examples.

[0126] A) Test conditions

[0127] 9kg of BCE wheat bran was loaded into the fermenter, pre-wetted with 1.5 liters of water, and then sterilized in situ at 121°C for 20 minutes, while stirring regularly for 5 seconds every 5 minutes. This treatment enabled a moisture content of 46%, which was subse...

Abstract

Enzyme preparation (I) produced by fermenting wheat bran with an Aspergillus niger strain has glucoamylase, protease and xylanase activities of at least 100 U / g (dry basis), provided that the glucoamylase activity is at least 750 U / g and / or the xylanase activity is at least 300 U / g. An Independent claim is also included for the production of (I) by: (1) moistening and pasteurizing or sterilizing wheat bran; (2) inoculating an at least 10 cm thick layer of the bran with Aspergillus niger; and (3) fermenting the bran in an aerated and periodically agitated reactor at 28 - 38 degrees C for 1 - 3 days while maintaining the moisture content of the bran at 50 - 60 wt.%.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a multi-enzyme product having glucoamylase, proteolytic ester and xylanase activities and a method for preparing the product by solid-state fermentation of wheat bran with the aid of Aspergillus niger. Background technique [0002] It is known to produce ethanol from cornstarch by means of an enzymatic process comprising the steps of liquefying the starch with alpha-amylase to hydrolyze the starch to dextrins, followed by glucoamylase (also known as amyloglucosidase) Saccharification is performed to hydrolyze dextrins to glucose and finally to ferment glucose to ethanol. [0003] The use of alpha-amylases and glucoamylases is generally satisfactory when starting from relatively pure starch emulsions obtained by wet grinding corn, but is used when it is desired to substitute wheat starch or flour for corn starch. Satisfactory results were not obtained with the two enzymes alone because the presence of hemicellulose incr...
