Abstract

The invention provides an improved method for preparing glyphosate by catalytically oxidizing N-(phosphonomethyl) iminodiacetic acid with oxygen-rich gas. The method comprises the following steps: selecting N-(phosphonomethyl) iminodiacetic acid (PMIDA) as the raw material, active carbon as a catalyst, and an oxygen-rich gas as an oxidant, adding N-(phosphonomethyl) iminodiacetic acid, the activecarbon and water into a high-pressure reaction kettle at a certain ratio, introducing the oxygen-rich gas to carry out oxidation reaction, adding filter cake after the oxidation reaction into a saturated glyphosate solution to fully dissolve glyphosate crystals as much as possible, and filtering while the solution is hot to obtain glyphosate. The method can improve the solubility of glyphosate and further improve the yield of the dry product, and can solve the bumping problem existing in the active carbon separation process at high temperature, thereby improving the safety of the production and effectively separating glyphosate and the active carbon. The method has the advantages of simple operation, easy recovery and utilization of the catalyst, reduced energy consumption, environmental protection, low production cost, etc.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of glyphosate preparation, and in particular relates to an improved method for preparing glyphosate by catalytic oxidation of high-concentration diglyphosate with oxygen-enriched gas. Background technique

[0002] Glyphosate (glyphosate, N-(phosphonomethyl)-glycine) is a high-efficiency, broad-spectrum, low-toxicity, and safe organophosphate herbicide, which is very effective in the control of perennial deep-rooted weeds. Forestry, animal husbandry, gardening and other aspects are widely used. Due to the expansion of the global planting of genetically modified crops, as well as the recovery and modernization of global agriculture, especially in developing countries, the demand for glyphosate has grown rapidly, and it has become the largest and fastest-growing pesticide variety in the world.

[0003] At present, there are many techniques for preparing glyphosate, mainly including glycine method (Gly method) and iminod...
