Claims18
A process for remediating mycotoxin in one or more biorefinery process streams, wherein the process comprises:
- introducing one or more treatment compounds into at least one biorefinery process stream to form a treated biorefinery process stream, wherein the at least one biorefinery process stream is chosen from thin stillage, syrup and combinations thereof, wherein the one or more treatment compounds comprises one or more sulfur-containing compounds, wherein the at least one biorefinery process stream comprises one or more mycotoxins, wherein the one or more treatment compounds react with the one or more mycotoxins in the at least one biorefinery process stream to form the treated biorefinery process stream, and wherein the treated biorefinery process stream is less toxic than the at least one biorefinery process stream.
