Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of fermentation defoamer technology, specifically to an industrial fermentation defoamer and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Bio-fermentation is widely used in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food, energy, chemicals, and agriculture. However, foaming problems often occur during bio-fermentation, which may be caused by operational factors, the surrounding environment, or agitation. Foaming can lead to reduced fermentation yield, fermentation broth overflow and contamination, and a decrease in working volume. When the fermentation product is anionic surfactant, the foam produced during fermentation is more stable.

[0003] Fermentation is divided into aerobic and anaerobic fermentation, and both processes utilize defoamers to eliminate foam. Aerobic fermentation produces a large amount of foam, requiring defoamers with a certain foam-breaking ability. Furthermore, in some aerobic fermentation processes, residual foam is necessary, necessitating defoamers with foam-controlling capabilities. Anaerobic fermentation demands higher foam-suppressing capabilities from defoamers, requiring them to suppress foam for extended periods even at lower dosages. Regardless of whether it's aerobic or anaerobic fermentation, defoamers are sterilized before use. After high-temperature sterilization, many emulsion-type defoamers experience demulsification, leading to decreased performance. During fermentation, using demulsifying defoamers results in a large amount of viscous material forming on the reactor walls or sediment at the bottom, further degrading performance. Adding excessive thickeners and stabilizers to defoamers leads to excessively high emulsion viscosity, poor dispersibility, and hinders rapid foam breaking by the defoamer.

[0004] Chinese patent CN113750577B indicates that a compound of polyether-modified organosilicon, polyether-modified heptamethyltrisiloxane, and a solvent performs well in rhamnolipin surfactants, exhibiting excellent defoaming effects. However, it has almost no effect in actual fermentation liquids, resulting in huge consumption. The complex composition of rhamnolipin fermentation liquids leads to numerous factors affecting foam variation. Ethanol, isopropanol, and n-butanol cannot break the foam in the system, and small-molecule alcohols have certain antibacterial effects, impacting the final yield.

[0005] Chinese patent CN113750577B specifies the preparation of defoamers using only materials such as silicone paste, polyether, emulsifier, and glycerol fatty acid esters, but does not explicitly address the product's stability at high temperatures. This patent uses conventional emulsifiers to emulsify the defoamer, which carries a certain risk of high-temperature demulsification.

[0006] Therefore, there is a need for an industrial fermentation defoamer that can inhibit demulsification and has good defoaming properties. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In view of this, the purpose of this application is to provide an industrial fermentation defoamer and its preparation method. This defoamer, during the sterilization process at the front end of industrial fermentation, can inhibit product demulsification and maintain stable product performance before and after sterilization. This defoamer is compounded with different polyether cloud point precipitates and combined with polyether-modified organosiloxanes to complement the emulsion emulsifier, thereby ensuring that the organosilicon active substances do not precipitate.

[0008] To achieve, or at least partially achieve, the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution:

[0009] In a first aspect, this application provides an industrial fermentation defoamer comprising the following components in parts by weight: 5-10 parts of organosilicon active ingredient, 3-7 parts of polyether-modified organosilicon, 30-40 parts of polyether compound, 1-3 parts of emulsifier, 1-3 parts of thickener, and 37-60 parts of deionized water.

[0011] The polyether compound includes at least one of fatty alcohol polyether, propylene glycol polyether, glycerol polyether, and pentaerythritol polyether.

[0012] Secondly, this application provides a method for preparing the aforementioned industrial fermentation defoamer, comprising the following steps:

[0013] Step 1: Mix the organosilicon active material, polyether-modified organosiloxane, and emulsifier, stir, and heat to 50-80°C to obtain the first mixed solution;

[0014] Step 2: Add water and thickener to the first mixed solution in sequence, then adjust the pH value to 7, and repeat the above operation 2 to 3 times to obtain the second mixed solution;

[0015] Step 3: Keep the temperature of the second mixed solution at 50-80°C, add the polyether compound and mix, then let it cool naturally to room temperature to obtain the defoamer for industrial fermentation.

[0016] The industrial fermentation defoamer and its preparation method provided in this application have at least the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. Compared with the prior art, the industrial fermentation defoamer provided in this application has excellent defoaming ability. It can effectively control the foam generated during the fermentation process with only a small amount of dosage, and the defoaming speed is fast and the demulsification of the defoamer is inhibited.

[0018] 2. The raw materials used in the industrial fermentation defoamer provided in this application are mild. Due to the small amount added, it will be decomposed into carbon source components of the culture medium by fermentation bacteria in the later stage of fermentation. After use, there is no need to add an additional defoamer separation and removal process, which improves fermentation efficiency and reduces labor costs.

[0019] 3. The preparation method of the industrial fermentation defoamer provided in this application is simple to operate, the raw materials are readily available, and it is suitable for large-scale production. Detailed Implementation

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0021] In this application, the term "terpenoid alkenes" refers to olefin compounds with a molecular formula that is an integer multiple of isoprene, with the general formula n(C5H8). Terpenoid alkenes are a class of naturally occurring hydrocarbons widely found in plants, particularly conifers; they are the main components of resins and turpentine derived from resins. Studies have also found large quantities of terpenoid alkenes extracted from marine organisms. Terpenoid alkenes are diverse, broadly classified into hemiterpenes (n=1, C5H8, meta-isoprene) and monoterpenes (n=2, C5H8, meta-isoprene). 10 H 16 Such as pinene, limonene, geraniol, camphene), sesquiterpenes (n=3, C 15 H 24 (e.g., gingerene), diterpenes (n=4, C 20 H 32 (e.g., camphorene) and polyterpenes (n=6, C 30 H 48 (such as squalene).

[0022] In this application text, the terms "first" and "second" are used to distinguish identical or similar items with essentially the same function and effect, solely for the purpose of clearly describing the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated.

[0023] In this application text, the term "normal temperature" refers to room temperature or general temperature, with a temperature range of 15 to 25°C.

[0024] In this application, the term "cloud point" refers to the cloud point, a characteristic constant of nonionic surfactants, which is affected by the surfactant's molecular structure and coexisting substances. Aqueous solutions of surfactants will become turbid with increasing temperature, as the surfactant changes from complete dissolution to partial dissolution; the temperature at which this transition occurs is the cloud point temperature. The cloud point (CP) is the temperature at which a homogeneous micelle solution of a nonionic surfactant (NS) undergoes phase separation, and is a very important physical parameter. It is the critical temperature at which a liquid sample begins to become turbid under standard conditions. In this application, the liquid sample refers to a polyether compound, including one or more combinations of fatty alcohol polyethers, propylene glycol polyethers, glycerol polyethers, and pentaerythritol polyethers. The cloud point of the polyether compound refers to the temperature at which the polyether solution begins to become turbid. This is because as the temperature increases, the movement of polyether molecules intensifies, leading to a weakening of the intermolecular forces, thus causing the solution to become turbid. This application does not explicitly define the cloud point testing method; it should be understood that existing publicly available techniques are used for cloud point testing.

[0025] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this application improves upon the composition of existing fermentation defoamer compositions, obtaining a novel industrial fermentation defoamer. This defoamer composition incorporates organosilicon active ingredients containing terpenes. Some terpenes possess hydrophilic groups, increasing hydrophilicity, and the plant-based terpenes accelerate the degradation rate of the compounds. Simultaneously, this industrial fermentation defoamer also introduces a polyether complex, composed of at least one or more polyethers with different cloud points selected from fatty alcohol polyethers, propylene glycol polyethers, glycerol polyethers, and pentaerythritol polyethers. The polyether complex consists of three polyethers with different cloud points: 5–20°C polyether, 21–30°C polyether, and 31–50°C polyether. The mass fractions of these three polyethers are 1–5 parts, 60–68 parts, and 27–39 parts, respectively. During high-temperature sterilization, the industrial fermentation defoamer containing the above-mentioned polyether compound replenishes the emulsifier in the defoamer due to the precipitation of the polyether compound. The precipitate is evenly dispersed in the emulsion, increasing its viscosity. Stirring during high-temperature sterilization further refines the emulsion, resulting in superior defoaming performance.

[0111] The defoaming ability of the industrial fermentation defoamers prepared in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-6 was tested. The specific method was as follows:

[0112] (1) High temperature resistance test: 100g of defoamer was added to the sterilization pressure cooker, the sterilization pressure cooker was heated to 120℃ and kept at that temperature for 4 hours, and then cooled to room temperature. 5% of the defoamer was taken out and dispersed in water to see if there was any oil floating.

After filling the bottle, use an HVS-10M vertical shaker to shake at 450rpm / min for 30min and record the foam elimination time.

[0114] Industrial fermentation defoamers Z1-Z prepared in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-6 10 The main differences in the preparation process and the comparison results of the final defoaming effect are shown in Table 1 below.

[0115] Table 1

[0116]

[0117]

[0118] As can be seen from the results in Table 1, the industrial fermentation defoamers Z1 to Z4 prepared in Examples 1 to 4 have the best defoaming effect, that is, no oil floats after high-temperature sterilization, and the defoaming speed is relatively fast, with the defoaming time all below 30 seconds. The reason for the above results is that the industrial fermentation defoamers prepared in the examples all incorporated terpenoids and polyether complexes with gradient cloud points. The terpenoids (such as gingerene) have hydrophilic groups, which increase hydrophilicity and accelerate the degradation of the compounds, thus achieving rapid defoaming. The reason for artificially setting the cloud point gradient of the polyether complex is that during high-temperature sterilization in the fermentation industry, the temperature rises from room temperature to 120-130°C. It is necessary to maintain the stability of the emulsion in different temperature ranges from room temperature to 120-130°C. This polyether complex with gradient cloud points forms an optimal hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) value, which greatly helps to maintain the stability of the emulsion and avoids demulsification after high-temperature sterilization, resulting in oil drift. Defoamers that only contain polyether complexes with a single cloud point range cannot achieve this effect.

[0119] Industrial fermentation defoamers Z5 and Z7 prepared in Comparative Examples 1 and 3, lacking terpene olefin components, exhibited longer defoaming times. Furthermore, Z7 lacked a polyether complex with a gradient cloud point, resulting in oil floating after high-temperature sterilization. Industrial fermentation defoamers Z6, Z8, Z9, and Z... prepared in Comparative Examples 2, 4, 5, and 6... 10 Polyether complexes lacking polyether compounds or possessing only a single cloud point cannot achieve the optimal hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) to maintain the stability of the defoamer. Therefore, oil floating may occur after high-temperature sterilization. Meanwhile, Z6, Z8, Z9, and Z... 10 The defoaming time is also longer than that of the industrial fermentation defoamers Z1 to Z4 prepared in the examples.

[0120] In summary, the industrial fermentation defoamer provided in this application embodiment can only achieve the optimal defoaming effect on the fermentation broth when it simultaneously possesses terpenoid olefins and polyether complexes with gradient cloud points.
