However, Luo Tiehong (Membrane Science and Technology [J], 2007, 27(4): 66-69) found that water migrated to the salt chamber when a membrane permeator with a similar structure was used to separate lactic acid, making the final lactic acid concentration lower than the initial one. The concentration of s

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing lactic acid with bipolar membrane electrodialysis technology. Lactic acid fermentation liquid passes through an electrodialyzer, which transforms contained lactates into lactic acid. The membrane tank configuration of the adopted electrodialyzer can be of two-cell type including an acid cell and a salt cell divided by an anion membrane or of three-chamber type including an acid cell, a salt cell and a base cell divided by a cation membrane and an anion membrane. For preparation, lactic acid fermentation liquid is transmitted into the salt cell and water is transmitted into the acid cell or the base cell. Under the effect of a circulating pump, the materials flow circularly with a current density of 80-160mA/cm2 at an operation temperature of 25-60 DEG C. The invention can completely supersede the prior calcium lactate acidifying technology without addition of acids for H+ supply and without production of waste acid, salt or base liquid. The transformation efficiency of lactic acid is higher than 98 percent, the recovery of lactic acid is higher than 90 percent and the current efficiency is higher than 70 percent, so the method can reduce environment pollution and lower consumption of chemical raw materials and energy and has remarkable industrial application value and environmental benefit.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of membrane technology, and in particular relates to a method for separating lactate ions from lactate fermentation liquid by using a bipolar membrane electrodialyzer. Background technique [0002] Lactic acid is an important organic acid, which has many uses in food, medicine, chemical industry, etc., especially as a monomer for the synthesis of degradable material polylactic acid, which has attracted widespread attention. Traditional lactic acid production uses the calcium salt method to extract lactic acid. Generally, a calcium neutralizer is added during the fermentation process to generate a calcium lactate-containing fermentation broth. After repeated crystallization and crystal washing, sulfuric acid is added to extract lactic acid, and it is decolorized through repeated adsorption. The steps are refined to obtain the product. The traditional fermented calcium salt method will consume a large amount of alkali ...
