General process description of Corn glucose production line

 

(1) Starch milk adjustment Starch milk coming from starch plant is adjusted to DS28-32% and proper PH and temperature. Or mix the dry starch with water to reach above condition for next section.

 

(2) Liquefaction Starch milk is sent to buffer tank then liquefied by jet cooker with the aid of enzyme.

 

(3) Saccharification The liquefied material is sent to enzyme saccharification tank for reaction. After being kept in holding tube the required DE value of the glucose will be reached. Then the material is sent to flash for cooling then to the neutralization tank for suitable PH value.

 

(4) Filtration and decoloring Glucose is cleaned by removing the protein and other foreign items in rotary vacuum filter and filter press. Active carbon is needed for decoloring at proper temperature.

 

(5) Ion exchange Tiny foreign items and bad odor is removed via ion exchanger. This equipment is used for high quality product.

 

(6) Evaporation The glucose is totally cleaned through safety filter then sent to evaporator for concentrating to reach the required DS as final product.
