Process of producing enzyme compositions
Abstract
Abstract PRILLS COMPRISING AN ENZYME AND A NORMALLY SOLID WATER-SOLUBLE TRANSLUCENT MATERIAL ARE MADE BY A PROCESS WHEREIN THE RESULTANT PRILLS HAVE A RELATIVELY LIGHT COLOR. A SLURRY OF THE ENZYME AND NORMALY SOLID WATER-SOLUBLE TRANSLUCENT MATERIAL IS INJECTED WITH AN INERT GAS AND THEN MADE INTO PRILLS BY AN PRILLING METHOD. AN ESPECIALLY PREFERRED METHOD OF MAKING THE PRILLS IS BY SPRAY COOLING. THE INERT GAS INJECTION STEP PRIOR TO PRILLING RESULTS IN PRILLS HAVING A HUNTER COLOR L-VALUE OF ABOUT L-70 TO L-90, SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN THE L-VALUE OF PRILLS MADE BY A PRILLING TECHNIQUE NOT EMPLOYING THE INERT GAS INJECTION STEP. EACH OF THE RESULTANT PRILLS IS IN THE FORM OF A SUBSTANTIALLY SPHERICAL SHAPE HAVING A SUBSTANTIALLY SMOOTH OUTER SURFACE AND POROUS INTERIOR.
