The method of citric acid wastewater backflow fermentation production of citric acid
Technical field
The present invention relates to fermentation engineering field, especially relate to a kind of citric acid wastewater without any process, the method for the fermentation production of citric acid that directly refluxes.
Background technology
Citric acid has the feature of the tart flavour of pleasant, entrance tart flavour frank, without issue, safety non-toxic because of it, so being widely used in the fields such as food, medicine and chemical industry, it has also become growing amount and the maximum edible organic acid of consumption figure on our times. China is citric acid exported country maximum in the world, and the production capacity of 2012 alreadys more than l10 ten thousand tons, and the citric acid of about 90% exports to foreign countries, and accounts for Gross World Product about 70%. Citric Acid Production mainly adopts liquid submerged fermentation, can produce substantial amounts of waste water, wherein contain the materials such as some organic acid, sugar, protein colloid, mineral in extraction process, and COD is up to 350kg/t citric acid, at concentrations up to 10000 ~ 15000ppm. If these waste water are not treated or deal with improperly, not only cause serious environmental pollution, also result in the waste of great lot of water resources, add enterprise's production cost simultaneously. Therefore how effectively to process the high concentrated organic wastewater that citric acid fermentation produces, be citric acid industry problem demanding prompt solution.
The main methods of existing citric acid wastewater: anaerobic biological process, aerobe method, anaerobic-aerobic combined method, they are to utilize the Organic substance in aerobic or anaerobe degradation of sewage under appropriate conditions, partial organic substances is converted into own cells composition simultaneously, thus reducing the COD of waste water. From current citric acid industry wastewater treatment present situation, effect is unsatisfactory, and these methods are it is generally required to early stage pretreatment, and the cycle is longer, and waste water treatment is not thorough, it is necessary to advanced treating further, can be only achieved discharge standard, and processing cost is higher.
