Syrup preparation procedure

2018-08-13 /

Syrup include the glucose syrup, maltose syrup and high fructose corn syrup, its making from starch hydrolysis. Maize /corn is commonly used as the source of the starch, so the glucose syrup is called "corn syrup". But the syrup is also can be making from other kind starch, such as cassava starch, potato starch, wheat starch and so on, then about syrup preparation procedure, below Doing Company will offer the answer:

In industrial production, syrup preparation procedure include several parts like mixing and liquefaction process, filtration to remove protein, saccharification process, decolorization by actived carbon adsorb principle, filter to decarburization, ion exchange process, evaporation to get requests concentration for syrup preparation procedure. On the following will introduce the setails:

Syrup preparation equipments

_Mixing and liquefaction:
(1).Mixing slurry: Add thermostable amylase, water and starch in specialized mixing tank, and mix them in mixing slurry tank, maintain a certain temperature for particualr time to make sure the proceeding of physical reaction between starch and enzyme.

(2).Spray liquefaction: Heating all tanks by steam, then start Liquid ejectors and pumps. Delivery material continuously and evenly, and control flow by production capacity. Flash evaporate material in Laminar flow tank, and keep temperature. Observe liquefaction effect in syrup preparation procedure process.

(3).High temperature treatment: Send passed material to the second liquid ejector, and keep temperature.

(4).Carry slurry to buffer tank by pump for next part process in syrup preparation procedure.
Main equipment: Mixing tank, Liquid ejector, Laminar flow tank, Buffer tanks, pumps

Syrup preparation procedure

_Filtration part:
Filter protein and slag by plate-and-frame filter press machine. Syrup will inflow buffer tanks, then be sent to next step by pump for syrup preparation procedure.

_Saccharification in syrup preparation procedure:
Cooling syrup by Heat-exchanger, then send them to Saccharification tank (mixer and coil pipe are set in Saccharification tank. ) by Pumps, then add glucoamylase. This is an important part for syrup preparation procedure.
Main equipments: Heat-exchanger, Saccharification tank, Pumps

_Decolorization
Carry passed syrup into Decolorization tanks(mixer and coil pipe are set in Saccharification tank.) by pump. Decolor by activated carbon adsorption.

Main equipments: Activated carbon, Decolorization tanks, Pumps.

Plate-frame-filter-press machine

_Filtration part:

(1).Filter protein and activated carbon by plate-and-frame filter press machine.

(2).Carry away protein by bottom slot for plate-and-frame filter press machine

(3).Unclean syrup is sent to big buffer tanks by pump.

(4).Carry clean syrup into buffer tanks which can be send to next part in syrup preparation procedure.
Main equipments: Plate-and-frame filter press machine, Buffer tanks, Pumps.

Ion exchange column

_Ion exchange:

(1).Carry syrup into Ion exchange column. Resin clean syrup in Ion exchange columns. Then carry clean syrup into buffer tanks for syrup preparation procedure.

(2).When Resin loses effect, stop carry syrup into Ion exchange columns, and change another Ion exchange column for work.

(3).Recover Resin: Using heat water to bush resin, then use acid fluid, and alkali fluid to bush Ion exchange columns till resin has function.

Syrup preparation plant design

_Evaporation process for syrup preparation procedure:

Evaporate syrup by Triple-concentrate of evaporator and Single-concentrate of evaporator. When syrup concentration is OK, shut down steam and stop evaporation. And carry syrup to Final-product storage tanks by Pumps.

Main equipments: Triple-concentrate of evaporator, Single-concentrate of evaporator, Final-product storage tanks, Pumps.

All in all, this is Doing Company syrup preparation procedure description, also introduce the main equipment adopted. As a professional syrup production equipment manufacturer, we welcome your visiting, if you plan to start a business on syrup preparation, we will be your good partner.
