Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of protein filtration and removal, in particular to a device for filtration and removal of protein in amino acid fermentation liquid. Background Art
[0002] In the amino acid production process, it is necessary to filter the large molecular proteins in the fermentation broth containing amino acids before a pure amino acid solution can be obtained. Currently, the existing filtration methods mostly use ceramic membrane equipment for filtration. The ceramic membrane is made of ceramic materials (aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, titanium oxide, etc.) and has a separation function. Under the action of mechanical pressure, all components in the solution are forced to pass through the ceramic membrane. The amino acid molecules in the solution can pass through the ceramic membrane unimpeded. The large particle proteins in the solution cannot pass through the gaps in the ceramic membrane due to the interception effect of the ceramic membrane, thereby completing the filtration of the amino acid fermentation solution and the separation and purification of the amino acids. After long-term use of the ceramic membrane filtration equipment, the gaps on the ceramic membrane will be blocked by the large particle proteins in the fermentation broth, affecting the filtration effect of the ceramic membrane, so that the ceramic membrane needs to be cleaned after the ceramic membrane filtration equipment has been used for a period of time.
