Alcozyme G Pro

Advanced Enzyme Blend for Improving Alcohol Yield & Process Efficiency in Grain-Based Fermentation

Grain-based fermentation can face challenges such as accumulation of intermediate volatile acids, incomplete starch hydrolysis, and microbial contamination. Together, these issues can reduce alcohol yield and overall process efficiency.

Improving fermentable sugar availability, controlling contamination, and supporting yeast nutrition are therefore important for maintaining efficient grain fermentation.

Alcozyme G Pro is a tailor-made enzyme formulation developed to enhance fermentation performance. It hydrolyses starch and oligosaccharides into glucose, helps reduce microbial contamination through bacterial cell wall lysis, and releases FAAN through protease activity to support yeast nutrition and fermentation kinetics.

FAQ's

What problems does Alcozyme solve in grain fermentation?

Alcozyme G improves fermentable sugar availability and supports healthy yeast activity to enhance fermentation efficiency, ethanol yield, and process stability. It also helps control microbial contamination and reduce volatile acid formation during fermentation.

How is Alcozyme G Pro Advance different from Alcozyme G Pro?

Alcozyme G Pro Advance features an enhanced formulation with additional nutritional support for yeast, making it ideal for plants facing poor fermentation recovery, residual sugars, inconsistent alcohol yields, or higher contamination levels. It delivers more robust and consistent fermentation performance under challenging operating conditions.

How can a plant verify the performance of Alcozyme G Pro before regular use?

Catalysts conducts supervised plant trials to evaluate product performance under actual operating conditions. Detailed monitoring, process analysis, and cost-benefit evaluation help customers assess improvements before adopting the product commercially.

When should a distillery consider using Alcozyme?

Alcozyme is recommended for distilleries facing residual sugars, poor fermentation recovery, inconsistent alcohol yield and bacterial contamination. It helps optimize sugar utilization, improves yeast performance, and delivers a more stable and efficient fermentation process.

Will Alcozyme G Pro Advance work with my existing fermentation process?

Yes. Alcozyme G is designed for grain-based ethanol plants and can be incorporated into existing fermentation systems without major process modifications. It can be applied in the yeast vessel, pre-fermenter, or fermenter, depending on plant requirements.

How much value does Alcozyme G Pro create against the client's investment?
A 1x investment in Alcozyme G Pro generates 5.1x in value, based on a 100 KLPD plant, 5 ppm dosage, and a 1% increase in fermentation efficiency.
