Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of erythritol concentrated phase processing, and more particularly to a method for producing yeast for feed by utilizing erythritol concentrated phase. Background Art
[0002] In the production of erythritol, the fermentation method is usually used. In addition to erythritol, the fermentation broth also contains various impurities such as bacteria, pigments, proteins, inorganic salts, glucose, etc. When using a ceramic membrane for separation, under pressure, small molecules such as erythritol in the fermentation broth pass through the ceramic membrane to become permeate, while impurities such as bacteria, large molecular proteins, pigments, etc. are retained by the ceramic membrane. These retained substances are the concentrated phase of the erythritol ceramic membrane. After testing, the soluble solids content in the concentrated phase of the erythritol ceramic membrane is 10.0-13.0%, the pH is 3.9-4.1, and the conductivity is 2.0-3.0ms / cm, of which reducing sugars account for 10.0-15.0% of the soluble solids content.
[0003] After ceramic membrane pretreatment, the erythritol fermentation broth entering the nanofiltration membrane removes most of the large impurities, such as bacterial cells, but still contains some small molecules of protein, pigments, polysaccharides, and other impurities. The nanofiltration membrane has a high retention rate for these impurities, and the retained substances are the concentrated phase of the erythritol nanofiltration membrane. Testing shows that the soluble solids content of the concentrated phase of the erythritol nanofiltration membrane is 20.0-25.0%, the pH is 3.9-4.1, and the conductivity is 3.0-5.0ms / cm. Reducing sugars (maltose and maltotriose) account for 60.0-70.0% of the soluble solids.
[0004] In the method for reusing discarded yeast from erythritol production to prepare sprayed corn husks, patent CN117243296A describes a method for reusing discarded yeast from erythritol production to prepare sprayed corn husks. The Candida lipolytica cells are filtered through a ceramic membrane and then a polyalumina flocculant is added. The cells are separated using a disc separator to obtain a sprayed yeast liquid. The sprayed yeast liquid is mixed with corn husk fiber, dried, and packaged to prepare high-value sprayed corn husks for use as animal feed. In patent CN118716462A, a method for preparing animal feed using fermented litchi pomace and probiotics is described. The fermented litchi pomace and feed are evenly mixed, and then Candida lipolytica and prebiotics are added. The animal feed is then fermented for 24 to 48 hours at 25 to 30°C. This indicates that the erythritol production residue (Candida lipolytica) can be used to prepare animal feed.
[0005] Adding brewer's yeast to animal feed can enhance animal growth performance, improve intestinal health, and enhance immunity. It has a wide range of applications in ruminants (cattle, sheep), poultry (chickens, ducks), and aquaculture.
[0006] Erythritol ceramic membranes and nanofiltration membrane concentrated phases are generally treated as waste sewage. Due to their high COD and conductivity, they often have an impact on the sewage treatment system and also cause waste of reducing sugars and bacteria.
[0007] Therefore, providing a method for producing feed yeast using erythritol concentrated phase is an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0008] In view of this, the present invention provides a method for producing yeast for feed using erythritol concentrated phase. By adding brewer's yeast to the erythritol concentrated phase, the maltose and maltotriose therein are decomposed and utilized, which can increase the bacterial content. The dry bacterial powder obtained after ceramic membrane filtration, drum drying, and crushing is added to animal feed, which can achieve effective utilization of concentrated phase resources while avoiding environmental pollution.
[0009] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0010] A method for producing yeast for feed using erythritol concentrated phase comprises the following steps:
[0011] (1) Preparation of erythritol concentrated phase: The erythritol ceramic membrane concentrated phase obtained by fermentation of Candida lipolytica and the erythritol nanofiltration membrane concentrated phase were mixed in a volume ratio of 1:1-2 to obtain an erythritol concentrated phase mixture;
[0012] (2) fermentation with brewer's yeast: the erythritol concentrated phase mixture is adjusted to a pH of 5.0-5.5 with a 4% sodium hydroxide solution, and the fermentation is carried out by inoculating brewer's yeast with an initial OD value of 15-25, with an inoculation amount of 1.0-1.5%; the fermentation conditions are controlled as follows: temperature 29-31°C, stirring speed 30-50 r / min, dissolved oxygen 5-10%; fermentation is carried out for 30-36 hours, and the residual sugar is detected by titration method to be less than 0.2%, and the fermentation liquid is removed from the tank to obtain the fermentation liquid;
[0013] (3) Ceramic membrane filtration: The fermentation liquid in the lower tank is filtered through a ceramic membrane to obtain a new ceramic membrane concentrated phase; pure water is added to the new ceramic membrane concentrated phase for washing, and the washing is stopped when the soluble solid content of the ceramic membrane permeate is ≤0.5 to obtain a mixture of Candida lipolytica and Saccharomyces cerevisiae;
[0014] (4) Drum drying and crushing: The mixture of Candida lipolytica and Saccharomyces cerevisiae is dried using a drum dryer, and the dried yeast bodies are crushed using a crusher to obtain dry feed yeast.
[0015] Furthermore, the soluble solid content in the concentrated phase of the erythritol ceramic membrane in step (1) is 10.0-13.0%, the pH is 3.9-4.1, and the conductivity is 2.0-3.0 ms / cm, wherein reducing sugars account for 10.0-15.0% of the soluble solid content;
[0016] The soluble solid content in the concentrated phase of the erythritol nanofiltration membrane is 20.0-25.0%, the pH is 3.9-4.1, and the conductivity is 3.0-5.0 ms / cm; and the reducing sugar accounts for 60.0-70.0% of the soluble solid content.
[0017] Furthermore, the pore size of the ceramic membrane in step (3) is 0.1 μm.
[0018] Furthermore, the drying temperature of the drum dryer in step (4) is 110-115°C.
[0019] Furthermore, the obtained feed yeast is added to animal feed in proportion. The proportion of feed yeast added to animal feed is 10-15 kg / ton for livestock feed, 40-50 kg / ton for poultry feed, and 40-50 kg / ton for fish and shrimp feed.
[0020] It can be seen from the above technical solution that, compared with the prior art, the present invention discloses a method for producing yeast for feed using erythritol concentrated phase. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is creatively added to the erythritol concentrated phase mixed liquid for fermentation, disaccharides, trisaccharides, etc. in the nanofiltration membrane concentrated phase are utilized, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell body is increased by 8-10%, and the Candida lipolytica cell body is increased by 2-3%. The mixed feed yeast is obtained by fermentation, which reduces the pressure of sewage treatment and realizes resource utilization. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
