IMMOBILIZED ENZYME FIBER REACTOR AND OIL REFINING USING THE SAME

An immobilized enzyme fiber reactor includes a plurality a fibers disposed within a hollow conduit. The fibers have an enzyme, such as a phospholipase, attached thereto. The enzymes can be attached to the fibers via an anchor group and, optionally, a bifunctional crosslinker. The enzymes can be appl...

More Information
Summary:An immobilized enzyme fiber reactor includes a plurality a fibers disposed within a hollow conduit. The fibers have an enzyme, such as a phospholipase, attached thereto. The enzymes can be attached to the fibers via an anchor group and, optionally, a bifunctional crosslinker. The enzymes can be applied, stripped, and reapplied without disassembling the reactor or discarding the fibers. The immobilized enzyme fiber reactor can be used to treat oils including phospholipids, such as soybean oil, and reduce an impurity content thereof.
