Starch liquefaction

The production of beverage alcohol from floury raw materials requires in the first place the digestion of starch by thermal pretreatment and subsequent starch liquefaction.

The different methods distinguish between processes without pressure and high-pressure processes.



Dextramyl WH
A special enzyme for the liquefaction and dextrination of starch in distilling mashes from farinaceous raw materials. Produced from a selected strain of Bacillus stearothermophilus. The main enzyme activity is based on a particularly thermostable, extremely acid-tolerant alpha-amylase.

 
Distizym® BA-TSAcid
a special enzyme for the liquefaction and dextrinisation of starch in distilling mashes from farinaceous raw materials. The enzyme is produced by a genetically modified strain of Bacillus licheniformis (host), the amylase coding genome was transferred from a strain of Bacillus stearothermophilus (donor).

 
Distizym® BA-N
A special enzyme applied in alcohol production for the liquefaction of starch-containing mashes. The enzyme is produced from a specially selected strain of Bacillus subtilis.

 
Distizym® BA-TS
Thermostable bacterial alpha-amylase for starch liquefaction.

 
Distizym® FUNGAL ALPHA
Thermotolerant fungal-alpha-amylase active in the neutral and weakly acidic pH-range, applied for starch conversion in distilling mashes from farinaceous raw materials.
