ZYLOZYME™ AA
Alpha Amylase
In the liquefaction stage of the bioethanol process, the enzyme alpha amylase plays a crucial role. Its function is to break down the starches present in corn, converting them from long chains into shorter chains called dextrins. ZYLOZYME™ AA is an exceptionally active alpha-amylase derived from Bacillus subtilis, specifically designed for use in ethanol production through fermentation.
For ethanol plants seeking enhanced production flexibility and cost efficiency, ZYLOZYME AA offers a tailored solution. This specialized enzyme enables precise adjustment of starch breakdown, viscosity reduction, and overall production enhancement.
Key features:
- Remarkable stability at high liquefaction temperatures
- Generates high levels of dextrose equivalents
- Effectively reduces viscosity
