What's the technology for making glucose syrup from starch?

2018-06-12 /

We all know the raw material for making glucose syrup is starch, and it requests advanced technology and professional machines. Today, due to the introduction of modern technology, Doing Company has produced a whole set of syrup equipments with advanced technology for making glucose syrup from starch. Our products do not contain any genetically modified organisms. Below is the introduction of our machine and technology for making glucose syrup from starch.

Machine used for making glucose syrup from starch

Technology process operation for making glucose syrup from starch:

1. Mixing slurry: Put the starch and water into the mixing tank, then put in enzyme, keep on particular standard temperature, waiting for some time, then it can be transported to next working section.

2. Injector liquefaction: The mixed starch milk is sent to buffer tank then liquefied by ejector(also named jet cooker) with the aid of enzyme at high temperature in regular time. In this section, for making glucose syrup from starch, except the ejector, also requests several type tanks include the laminar flow tank, maintaining tank and neutralization tank.

3. Deproteinization: Starch usually contain many protein whic is no need for glucose syrup products, so before the saccharification, to get clean syrup, we need to make deproteinization process for making glucose syrup from starch by the filter press.

Saccharification tank

4. Saccharification: The liquefied material is sent with enzyme to saccharification tank for reaction. Maintain at specific temperature for some time, the syrup will transfer to glucose syrup .

Liquefaction and saccharification operation standards:

Liquefaction	DE	11%-15%
	Temperature	106-108℃
Saccharification	Temperature	when add enzyme	60-62℃
	PH		4.2-4.4
	DE
		outer	>99%
	Time	48-52h

Liquefaction and sacchafification is two most important section for making glucose syrup from starch, plays the role of laying the foundation.

5. Decolorization: After LAB testing, all the gluose syrup pumping into the decoloration tanks, at uniform temperature, mix with activated carbon, usually it have to make twice formaking glucose syrup from starch with high purity.

Plate frame filter press

6.Filter press decarburization: The glucose syrup with activated carbon will be pumped into the press filter, usually adopt the plate and frame filter press, after press the clean maltose syrup will flow into the buffer tank, and the waste activated carbon will stay inside the filter.

7. Ion exchange: The clean glucose syrup pumping into the ion exchange columns, inside the column the resin will attract all the cation and anion and other small electron, then will get very pure glucose syrup for people eating. This equipment is essential for making glucose syrup from starch, make sure products high quality.

Ion exchange working principle

8. Concentration: Under vacuum conditions, the glucose syrup is heated for evaporation. When the glucose syrup concentration reaches the technology requirement, then it cools the temperature and enters into the final product tank for storage. The finished product can be high glucose syrup and super high glucose syrup made by professional syrup evaporator.

Now, if you are interested in our machine and technology for making glucose syrup from starch, and want to get more informations about our machine, weclome to contact us and our engineer will give you a feasibility program according to your requirement.

Finally, Glucose syrup (DE > 38) is mostly used in beer brewing because of its high content of fermentable sugars. It helps to increase the productivity and to improve the original extract. This type of starch syrup is also important in the confectionary industry and in making preserves. It helps give the syrup for various jams, fruit batters and marmalades greater treacliness, and increases the storage period of goods. Moreover, glucose syrup improves the taste of food products. Making glucose syrup from starch is a good business.

Maltose starch syrup is widely used in the bread-making industry because of its ability to increase the crumb grain and elasticity. As a result, the baked goods get a light-brown crust and a nice flavour and stay fresh longer.
