Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fermentation, in particular to a method for preparing yeast. Background Art

[0002] During yeast production, fermentation water is usually added to the fermentation tank first, and then molasses and other raw materials are added for fermentation after seed yeast is inoculated. Molasses is generally selected as sugarcane molasses or beet molasses, which are often used in the fermentation process of extract yeast due to its rich ingredients. After fermentation, the fermentation clear liquid contains substances that are not used by yeast and metabolites produced by yeast metabolism, including rich nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and macromolecular organic substances such as caramel, humic acid, and fulvic acid.

[0003] In the past, there are many methods for treating fermentation wastewater, such as evaporating and concentrating yeast fermentation wastewater with molasses as raw material, spray drying the concentrate to obtain organic fertilizer, and discharging the condensed water after treatment; for example, evaporating and concentrating yeast fermentation wastewater with molasses as raw material, filtering the condensed water through an osmotic membrane, and then reusing it in the fermentation process as dilution water.

[0004] In the previous treatment methods, if yeast fermentation wastewater is discharged directly or simply treated before discharge, it is difficult to treat it to the discharge standard because it is a high-concentration organic wastewater with poor biochemical treatment performance. After treatment such as osmotic membrane filtration, the process is relatively cumbersome and the reuse ratio of yeast fermentation wastewater is small. Summary of the invention

[0005] Based on this, the present invention provides a method for preparing yeast by utilizing yeast fermentation wastewater. Under the premise of maintaining the quality of the yeast, the treatment method of the yeast fermentation wastewater is simple and the reuse amount of the yeast fermentation wastewater is large.

[0006] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0007] A method for preparing yeast comprises the following steps:

[0008] Providing yeast fermentation wastewater, performing evaporation and concentration treatment on the yeast fermentation wastewater, and collecting condensed water;

[0009] The yeast seed is fermented by using fermentation bottom water and molasses treatment liquid to obtain yeast; wherein the fermentation bottom water includes the condensed water; and / or the method for treating the molasses treatment liquid includes the step of diluting molasses by using the condensed water;

[0010] The process parameters of the fermentation treatment include: adjusting the fermentation time and / or the amount of molasses treatment solution added, so that the material index and material conversion rate of the obtained yeast meet the following conditions at the same time:

[0011] The proportion of protein in the dry weight of the yeast is not less than 60wt%; the proportion of nucleic acid in the dry weight of the yeast is not less than 8wt%; the viable cell rate is ≥98%; and the sugar conversion rate is ≥78%.

[0012] In some embodiments, the fermentation time is 12 hours to 16 hours.

[0013] In some embodiments, the condensed water is used to dilute the molasses to a total sugar concentration of 30 wt%±0.1 wt% in the dilution, and 3800 mL to 4100 mL of the molasses treatment solution is added for every 220 g to 230 g of seed yeast.

[0014] In some embodiments, the molasses treatment liquid is introduced by a feeding method, and the process parameters of the feeding include: a maximum flow rate of 350 ml / h to 450 ml / h.

[0015] In some embodiments, the molasses treatment solution is introduced by a feeding method, and the process parameters of the feeding include: the time to reach the maximum flow rate is 7h to 9h.

[0016] In some embodiments, the mass percentage of the condensed water in the fermentation bottom water is 25wt% to 100wt%.

[0017] In some embodiments, 4.1 L to 4.3 L of the fermentation bottom water is added for every 220 g to 230 g of seed yeast.

[0018] In some of the embodiments, the process parameters of the fermentation treatment also include: controlling the ventilation volume of the fermentation system so that the maximum ventilation volume is 25L / min-30L / min, and the time to reach the maximum ventilation volume is 5h to 7h.

[0019] In some embodiments, the process parameters of the fermentation treatment also include: controlling the pH value of the fermentation system to be 4.0-6.5.

[0020] In some embodiments, the process parameters of the fermentation treatment also include: the fermentation temperature is 28°C to 34°C.

[0021] In some embodiments, the step of obtaining yeast fermentation wastewater includes:

[0022] The fermentation liquid obtained after the fermentation treatment is subjected to solid-liquid separation treatment and washing treatment to obtain yeast fermentation wastewater.

[0023] In some embodiments, the evaporation concentration process is performed to obtain a solid content of 50 wt % to 60 wt %.

[0024] In some embodiments, the seed yeast is Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

[0025] Compared with the traditional solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] The present invention uses yeast fermentation wastewater to prepare yeast. Different from the previous method, the condensed water of yeast fermentation wastewater is not treated or discharged after simple treatment or returned to the fermentation treatment process as dilution water after treatment such as filtration by osmotic membrane, the present invention can directly use condensed water as dilution water for molasses, and in order to increase the reuse amount of yeast fermentation wastewater, the present invention can directly use condensed water as fermentation bottom water. Because the inventor of the present invention found that at this time, the ideal quality of yeast can be obtained by adjusting the fermentation time and / or the addition amount of molasses treatment liquid of the fermentation treatment process, that is, the adverse effect of directly using condensed water as fermentation bottom water and / or molasses dilution water back to the fermentation treatment process (especially directly using condensed water as fermentation bottom water) on the quality of yeast fermentation can be compensated by adjusting the fermentation time of the fermentation treatment process and the addition amount of molasses treatment liquid. Prepare yeast by the method of the present invention, not only the treatment method of yeast fermentation wastewater is simple, and the reuse amount of yeast fermentation wastewater is large, but also the quality of yeast is good.

[0145] It can be seen that: Example 1 is relative to Control Example 1, and the condensed water is directly used as the dilution water of molasses, which has no significant effect on the relevant indicators of yeast. Comparative Examples 1, 2, and 3 are relative to Example 1. As the amount of condensed water used directly as fermentation bottom water increases, the nucleic acid and protein indicators of yeast have a slightly downward trend, but the material indicators of protein, nucleic acid and viable cell rate are all within the required range (protein ≥ 60%, nucleic acid ≥ 8%, viable cell rate ≥ 98), and at the same time, the sugar conversion rate is significantly reduced. It is explained that after condensed water is directly used for fermentation bottom water, the greater the proportion of condensed water in the initial fermentation environment, the greater the impact on the subsequent material indicators (especially the conversion rate) of yeast. The possible reason is that the yeast proliferation rate in the early stage of fermentation is affected and reduced, the sugar consumption rate is slowed down, and the excess sugar is used to produce metabolic by-products. After the early adaptation, the effect of the condensed water used on the middle and late yeast is significantly weakened, so Examples 3, 4, and 5 can increase the nucleic acid and protein content and the sugar conversion rate by appropriately reducing the sugar supplement rate (extending the fermentation cycle and / or reducing the total sugar supplement amount), so that each indicator is basically close to the situation when condensed water is not used.

[0146] Furthermore, commercially available brewer's yeast was used for experiments, and it was found that yeast of ideal quality can be obtained by adjusting the fermentation time of the fermentation treatment process and / or the amount of molasses treatment liquid added. That is, the adverse effect on the yeast fermentation quality caused by directly reusing condensed water as fermentation bottom water and / or dilution water for molasses to the fermentation treatment process (especially directly using condensed water as fermentation bottom water) can be compensated by adjusting the fermentation time of the fermentation treatment process and the amount of molasses treatment liquid added.

[0147] In summary, the present invention simplifies the yeast fermentation wastewater treatment process (from multi-step simplification to evaporation concentration step) while maintaining the stable quality of yeast by adjusting the fermentation process, and increases the reuse amount of yeast fermentation wastewater in the fermentation treatment process (increases the use as fermentation bottom water, and increases the reuse amount by even about 2 times compared with the water used only for molasses dilution), thereby reducing wastewater discharge and process water, and saving costs. On the basis of realizing comprehensive resource utilization, a method combining multiple treatment technologies is adopted to ultimately achieve standard discharge and recycling of wastewater, and achieve the application effect of energy conservation and emission reduction.
