The acid / enzyme process for continuous conversion of refined starch is mainly used where it is desired to combine a standard glucose syrup production with the possibility of producing high DE product DE 96 ) suitable forproduction of e.g. dextrose monohidrat.
The process is continuous, standard glucose syrup additionally equippedwith an enzymatic saccharification section. In the acid enzyme process a continuous acid liquifaction to alow DE takes place followed by enzymatic saccharificatio to approx. 96 DE by means of amyloglucosidase enzyme. This process is also suitable for production of special types of maltose and glucose syrup by changing the saccharifying enzyme.
Following the saccharificationthe product is passed through various refining steps such as filtration, decolorization, and in some cases deionization, all dependent on final product requirements. The refined product is continuously evaporated to specified dry substance content for either storage or, in the case of high DE product, for further processing into dextrose monohidrat.
The acid / enzyme process is suitable for all kinds of refined starches and the process equipment differs slightly, defendent on whether the starches originated from a cereal or a root (tuber). This is mainly the case in refining section, hwere it can be stated that a plant designed for handling starch from a cereal is also able to handle starch fro a root, but not alwaysthe other way round.
