Methods for Continuous Enzymatic Treatment of a Lipid-Containing Composition at a Substantially Constant Flow and for Treatment of a Lipid-containing Composition with an Enzyme, and System for Continuous Treatment of the Lipid-containing Composition

摘要

METHODS FOR CONTINUOUS CONTINUOUS CONTINUOUS CONTINUOUS CONTINUOUS CONTINUOUS CONTINUOUS TREATMENT METHODS One method and system for the enzymatic treatment of a lipid-containing feedstock comprises contacting the feedstock with a processing aid, then causing the feedstock to pass at a substantially constant flow through a treatment system comprising a plurality of enzyme-containing fixed bed reactors connected to each other in series. Fixed bed reactors may be useful individually, the flow of the feed load remaining substantially constant throughout the system when one of the fixed bed reactors is taken off line to work. In the most preferred embodiment, the processing aid is a substantially silica free mixture. The processing aid may be placed in one or more of the fixed bed reactors disposed above the enzyme in the reactor or it may be in a pretreatment system which may comprise one or more reactors.
