Abstract

The invention discloses a production method of a citric acid monohydrate crystal, which comprises the following steps: heating a citric acid solution until the citric acid solution is concentrated to the concentration of 68.5-78 wt%, thereby obtaining a citric acid concentrated solution; and cooling to crystallize the citric acid concentrated solution, and carrying out solid-liquid separation on the crystal slurry containing citric acid monohydrate crystal, wherein the cooling for crystallization is carried out under the following conditions: controlling the temperature difference between the cooling medium and the citric acid concentrated solution to be not greater than 10 DEG C under the conditions capable of at least generating citric acid monohydrate crystal. The invention also provides a citric acid monohydrate crystal produced by the method. On the premise of not influencing the product purity and not increasing the techniques, the method disclosed by the invention obviously enhances the particle uniformity of the citric acid monohydrate crystal, so that the 10-20-mesh weight distribution of the citric acid monohydrate crystal can be enhanced to higher than 68%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing citric acid monohydrate crystals and citric acid monohydrate crystals produced by the method. Background technique [0002] Citric acid monohydrate is mainly used in food and beverage industries as sour agent, flavoring agent, preservative and preservative. It is also used as antioxidant, plasticizer and detergent in chemical industry, cosmetic industry and washing industry. At present, the industrial production method of citric acid monohydrate crystals includes: first, the citric acid fermentation liquid is separated from the solid and liquid to obtain the citric acid clear liquid, and the citric acid clear liquid is purified through the calcium salt method (calcium hydrogen method), acid hydrolysis, and decolorization. The solution is heated and concentrated, and the concentration of the concentrated solution is controlled to be 68.5-72% by weight. The above-mentioned citric acid concentrated solution...
