Problems solved by technology

However, this reaction process is often unable to carry out the reaction completely due to the insufficient concentration of the dilute acid solution to the late stage of the reaction, thereby greatly reducing the yield of levulinic acid. Percentage; if the acid concentration is too high in the initial reaction, it is easy to carbonize the raw materials and damage the equipment

Abstract

The invention relates to an acid-adjusting hydrolysis process for preparing levulinic acid. The raw materials are ground, sieved and combined, and the concentration of the catalyst of sulfuric acid is adjusted to reduce the initial concentration of the reacted acid, thus the reaction can be carried out more moderate and environmental-friendly, and more importantly, the yield of the levulinic acid prepared with the acid-adjusting hydrolysis process can be greatly improved by 57.95 percent on average. In the invention, the waste agricultural crops such as the core straw, the rice straw and the rice husk which has the lowest utilization ratio are combined, thus the content of the cellulose in the raw materials are improved, and the carbonization to the rice husk from the acid is reduced. The cellulose can be thoroughly hydrolyzed in the reaction process through adjusting the concentration of the sulfuric acid in the reaction process, while the slag from other similar hydrolysis reaction contains part of the cellulose which is not hydrolyzed in the current time. The invention can avoid the raw material carbonization and the equipment damage which are resulted from the over high concentration of the acid.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an acid-adjusting hydrolysis method for preparing levulinic acid. Background technique [0002] Judging from the domestic and foreign situation of using biomass resources to prepare levulinic acid, there are two main technologies: furfuryl alcohol hydrolysis method and biomass direct hydrolysis method, and hydrolysis method is currently the mainstream. At present, the steps of using biomass resources to prepare levulinic acid by direct hydrolysis technology in China are as follows: put biomass raw materials and dilute acid solution into the reactor, and increase the yield of the target product by controlling different thermodynamic reaction conditions. But this reaction process is often because the concentration of dilute acid solution to the late stage of the reaction is insufficient, so that the reaction cannot be carried out completely, thereby greatly reducing the yield of levulinic acid. Percentage; if the concentration o...
