Liquefaction

Distilling

Enzymes for distilling liquefaction

Achieving complete starch conversion to fermentable sugars starts with a good liquefaction system. Our heat-stable alpha-amylases for liquefaction support an efficient process. They liquefy gelatinized starch into dextrins and reduce viscosity. That allows you to mix and pump at higher grain solids in cook.

You can achieve higher ethanol yields with our advanced thermostable alpha-amylases. They reduce mash viscosity, are effective across a broad pH range, and don't need additional calcium. All these benefits help you save energy and reduce chemical consumption. The end result is a more cost-effective mashing process.

Thermostable alpha-amylases for cost savings

Our heat-stable dual- and multi-enzyme blends improve your fermentation process. They increase conversion in your cook for increased fermentation throughput. They also support your yeast with the right nutrient levels at the right time. The result is a reduction in stress-induced congeners and sustained yeast vitality.

Improve fermentation throughput and performance

Find the right solution for you in our global portfolio, shown below. To find out more about products available in your region, <a href="#getintouch">get in touch</a> with your local Novozymes representative.

This product operates at low pH. That allows you to make more use of backset and reduces the need to adjust sodium hydroxide (NaOH) pH. That means less sodium (Na) stress on yeast​. Operating at low pH also allows you to save on energy and chemicals.

Low-pH tolerance

High viscosity causes a range of problems in your process. These include channeling through the stirred tanks. Pumps, heat exchangers, jet cookers and agitation all run better at low viscosity. Lower viscosity also allows you to operate at higher levels of dry solids. This product reduces viscosity for smoother processing that&#039;s better able to withstand variations.

Viscosity Reduction

In some regions and processes, cooling of the jet-cooked mash (110+ºC) is not optimal. Non-thermostable alpha-amylases lose their activity at these high temperatures.  This thermostable product keeps working in your liquefaction process, even at high temperatures.

Thermostability

This product delivers aggressive hydrolysis and high viscosity reduction. That makes it suitable for operations that don&#039;t use jet cookers.

Suited to no-jet cooking processes

This product delivers efficient liquefaction to convert more starch into dextrins. That means there is less residual starch at the end of your Saccharification (SSF) process.

Less residual starch

This advanced,  thermostable enzyme delivers aggressive hydrolysis.  It can also operate at lower pH to potentially reduce sugar loss to the Maillard reaction. The result is higher extract yield and profitability for your plant.

Benefits

Liquozyme® Pro HP DI provides robust starch conversion while supporting yeast health with a nitrogen source of amino acids and peptides.

This allows for the elimination of fermentation protease and exogenous nitrogen reductions in fermentation and offers the potential for higher ethanol yield. The thermostable protease in Liquozyme® Pro HP DI enables oil extraction improvements of up to ~10% for those who recover their corn oil. 

<ul><li>Ability to eliminate fermentation protease and reduce DAP and ammonia in fermentation – 10% to 30% – resulting in lower costs, less need for storage and handling, greater safety, and reduced risk of errors </li>
	<li>Potential for up to 10% increased corn oil yield </li>
	<li>Equal-to or better ethanol yields and viscosity enhancement compared with Liquoflow® pHlex DI </li>
	<li>Improved operational flexibility across broad pH range in cook </li>
	<li>Improved yeast health resulting in lower glycerol and conginer levels</li>
</ul>Regional availability - North America

Details

This product contains enzymes. While enzymes are safe to use in consumer applications, they need correct handling in working environments to ensure workers’ safety.

Indeed, repeated inhalation of enzyme dust or aerosols resulting from improper handling may induce sensitization and may cause allergic type 1 reactions in sensitized individuals.

Please follow the precautionary handling recommendations below:
