Effects of Liquefying Conditions during Citric Acid Fermentation

Abstract:

In order to regulate the fermentation process more precise,this study investigated the effects of different liquefying conditions on corn flour liquefying results.And the optimum conditions were achieved through single factor experiment and listed as follows:95℃,3.17:1 of water to corn flour ratio,the agitator speed 160rpm.With the optimum conditions,the liquefy process was finished just in 18 min.Furthermore,it was found that the enzyme amount,pH,liquefying time played important role on the the component of the liquefied corn.
