Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing citric acid by using a high-strength fermentation technology. The method is characterized by comprising the steps as follows: using corns as raw materials; pulverizing and adding water for size mixing; continuously injecting and liquefying twice after preprocessing by a homogenizer or a colloid mill; adding appropriate nitrogen sources and acid proteinase for fermentation at the same time; and adjusting the corresponding production parameters for adaptation. The method not only improves the fermentation acid yield rate, shortens the fermentation period, improves the utilization rate of equipment, improves the economic benefit of enterprises, and promotes the competitiveness of enterprises.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing citric acid, in particular to a method for producing citric acid by high-intensity fermentation technology. Background technique [0002] Citric acid, scientific name 2-hydroxypropane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid, molecular formula C 6 h 8 o 7 (anhydrous), is an organic acid widely used in food, medicine and chemical industry. With the development of the economy, the demand for citric acid in all walks of life will rise steadily. Of course, the challenges and opportunities faced by various enterprises are also increasing. It is mainly used in food industry, pharmaceutical industry and chemical industry, and it is also widely used in industrial fields such as electronics, textiles, petroleum, leather, construction, photography, plastics, casting and ceramics. [0003] At present, in the production of citric acid, there are shortcomings such as low initial total sugar concentration of fermentation, low aci...
