Beverage Deoxygenation through Electrochemically RegeneratedMetal Chelates

一种饮料（酒、果汁）脱氧方法， 使用电化学再生金属 螯合以从再循环气流中除去氧。 用于对饮料进行除杂的气流 被供给到电化学再生的金属螯合物中， 选择性地去除氧气的溶液。 气体 然后返回到饮料中， 液体。 该系统的优点是风味 组件不会被移除。 金属的反应 与氧的螯合物不是完全有效的， 导致产生异味。 这个项目 解决了这个化学必须改善之前， 系统可以实用。 金属螯合物化学 氧气和饮料风味组分的存在将被 研究了

A method of beverage (wine, fruit juice) deoxygenation has been developed using electrochemically regenerated metal chelates to remove the oxygen from a recycling gas stream. The gas stream which is used to deoxygenate the beverage is fed to the electrochemically regenerated metal chelate solution where the oxygen is selectively removed. The gas is then returned to the beverage to further deoxygenate the fluid. The system has the advantage that flavor components are not removed. The reaction of the metal chelates with the oxygen is not completely effficient, resulting in the production of off-flavors. This project addresses this chemistry which must be improved before the system can be practical. Metal chelate chemistry in the presence of oxygen and beverage flavor components is to be studied.
