Fortiva® HemiX
Products in the Novonesis Fortiva® Hemi family are the first liquefaction enzymes to work on the fiber matrix. The addition of xylanase in Fortiva® HemiX enables unmatched substrate conversion to deliver the highest corn and ethanol oil yield possible. Effective across the broadest range of pH and temperature ranges, HemiX is also the most flexible liquefaction solution available to ethanol producers.
- Yield increase of >10% versus Fortiva® Revo
- Increase of up to 1% ethanol yield versus Fortiva® Revo
- Incorporates xylanase for unmatched substrate conversion
- Reduces residual crude fat and starch in liquefaction and coproducts
- Allows plats to run at higher DP4+ and thin stillage solids
- Variable formulation to match your operational goals
- Food Grade Certification available
The Fortiva® Hemi suite of alpha amylase products offers a wide range of liquefaction protease blends to meet your specific operational needs.
Product features, details and benefits
- Broad product offering
Multiple blends of this product are available to ensure optimal performance, whatever your liquefaction conditions. The various blends contain activities from thermostable alpha amylase, protease, or other enzymes. To find the right blend for you, please contact your Novonesis representative.
- Enhanced yeast performance and process simplicityMuch of the nutrition yeast needs already exists in incoming grains. Thermostable alpha amylases, proteases or other enzymes unlock this nutrition source in liquefaction. That means enhanced yeast performance. It also reduces the costs and complexity associated with adding urea, ammonia or unnecessary, underperforming enzymes to your process.
- Food Grade Availability
You may need or prefer Food Grade Certification of liquefaction enzymes for your ethanol production. If so, it's available across this product line.
- High conversion efficiencyAny starch not converted to dextrins during liquefaction is a lost opportunity for your plant. These products free and solubilize more starch so you get the most from your liquefaction process. The result is better ethanol production and lower overall residual starch.
- Increased yield potential
Corn oil and ethanol yield potential is highest at high-temperature liquefactions in cook. These products contain novel thermostable protease and other enzyme activities. That means they can free more oil and dextrins in liquefaction. The freed oil is then captured in your oil extraction systems. Additional sugars are converted in fermentation for higher ethanol yields.
- Operational flexibilityWhatever your liquefaction conditions, starch dextrinization and viscosity reduction are important. These products work across the broadest range of liquefaction temperature and pH ranges.
Until now, starch and fat trapped in the fiber matrix of grain were inaccessible to liquefaction enzymes. That meant lost opportunity and profit for your plant. The novel enzymes in the Fortiva® Hemi family of products work on the fiber matrix. The blend also contains the most efficient grain conversion amylases on the market. Together, these enzymes free and hydrolyze starch and fat for higher corn oil and ethanol yields. Fortiva® Hemi products also offer flexibility across the broadest range of process conditions. The result is a chance to redefine your plant's liquefaction performance.
This product contains enzymes. While enzymes are safe to use in consumer applications, they need correct handling in working environments to ensure workers’ safety.
Indeed, repeated inhalation of enzyme dust or aerosols resulting from improper handling may induce sensitization and may cause allergic type 1 reactions in sensitized individuals.
Please follow the precautionary handling recommendations below:
- Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray
- Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or clothing
- In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection
- IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing
- If experiencing respiratory symptoms: Call a POISON CENTER or a doctor
- Store in a dry place. Store in a closed container
- Dispose of contents/containers in accordance with local regulations
