Process for reducing hydrolysed protein chlorohydrin content.

摘要

The chlorohydrin content of a liquid containing hydrolysed protein obtained by hydrolysis of protein with hydrochloric acid is reduced in an apparatus system by introducing alkali into the liquid flowing under pressure in a piping system to increase the pH of the liquid, after which the pH-increased flowing liquid is heated, and then the heated flowing liquid is held for a time sufficient in a holding piping section to reduce the chlorohydrin content of the hydrolysed protein contained in the liquid. The flowing liquid under pressure then is cooled before or after addition of hydrochloric acid which is employed to adjust the pH of the liquid.
