ABSTRACT:
Alkali metal glucoheptonate is produced from sweet potatoes by reducing the size of sweet potatoes to particles of about 1/16 inch, slurrying the sweet potato particles, adding a-amylase to the slurry, boiling the slurry and filtering to separate a liquid syrup and a protein-containing pulp residue, cooling the liquid syrup and adding glucoamylase, boiling the resulting liquid syrup, and adding an alkali metal cyanide to the liquid syrup and heating to produce the alkali metal glucoheptanate. The alkali metal glucoheptanate is suitable for use as a water conditioning chelant and the protein-containing pulp residue is suitable for use as animal food.
