Problems solved by technology

This method has the disadvantages of long soaking time, high production cost, low production efficiency, high energy consumption, and large amount of wastewater discharge. At the same time, the released SO 2 Gas pollutes the environment, and sulfurous acid has a strong corrosive effect on equipment and pipelines, so it is necessary to innovate the soaking process.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for shortening soak time of corn in the process of producing corn starch by combined soaking with high pressure and complex enzyme. The corn is soaked at the pressure of 0.1-0.5MPa and at the temperature of 30-60 DEG C for 10-20h with the adding amount of the protease being 450-1,350IU / g and the adding amount of the cellulose being 15-80IU / g, the water content of the soaked corn is 41.7%-45.3%, the yield of the corn starch is 69.2%-71.6%, the content of the dry matters in the soak solution is 3.6%-4.1%, and the protein content is 0.040-0.045mg / mL. The method overcomes the disadvantages of the conventional soaking process of long soaking time, high energy consumption, environmental pollution by SO2 gas, and the like, thus realizing production technical breakthroughs of low cost, high efficiency, low energy consumption and environmental protection, and improving the competitiveness of the corn starch and the downstream industries of China in the international market.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of deep processing of corn, and in particular relates to a method for shortening the corn soaking time in the corn starch production process by utilizing high pressure and compound enzyme combined soaking. Background technique [0002] At present, the corn starch wet processing technology is the main technology adopted in the world. The first process involved in the processing process is the corn soaking process. The quality of the soaking effect and the length of the soaking time directly affect the processed starch products and other Yield, quality and production cost of by-products. [0003] The traditional corn soaking process generally adopts sulfurous acid at 48-53 ° C, in the intermittent operation of 8-12 soaking tanks for countercurrent circulation soaking, the soaking time is 36-48 hours, 1 ton of commercial corn consumes 157kJ of steam, and produces 0.7-1.0 tons Thin corn syrup. This method has the disadv...
