Problems solved by technology

[0004] The shortcoming that the preparation method of above-mentioned L-carnitine exists is: one, splitting method, no matter be chemical splitting or enzymatic splitting, the research and development cycle is all longer, splitting process route is more complicated, and the screening workload of enzyme is also more Large, and most of them need to use toxic cyanide as raw material
2. The asymmetric chemical synthesis of L-carnitine, the reaction process produces a large amount of sodium chloride. At present, the electrodialysis desalination process is widely used to remove sodium chloride, but the loss of L-carnitine in the desalination process is as high as 25%. In addition, during the operation of the electrodialysis desalination process, the cathode and the membrane are easy to scale, thus affecting the quality of the effluent water and shortening the use time of the instrument; , regular dismantling and washing and other complicated maintenance measures
In addition, the power consumption and water consumption of electrodialysis desalination treatment technology are very high, and the turbidity requirements for influent water are also very strict.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of L-carnitine. Background technique [0002] L-carnitine (English name L-carnitine), also known as L-carnitine or transliterated carnitine, is a kind of amino acid that promotes the conversion of fat into energy. Red meat is the main source of L-carnitine, which is non-toxic to the human body side effect. Different types of daily diets already contain 5-100 mg of L-carnitine, but the average person can only take in 50 mg a day from meals, and vegetarians take in even less. The main physiological function of L-carnitine is to promote the conversion of fat into energy. Taking L-carnitine can reduce body fat and weight without reducing water and muscle. In 2003, L-carnitine was recognized by the International Obesity Health Organization as the safest Side effects of weight loss nutritional supplements. [0003] The preparation method of L-carnitine commonly used at present has following several kinds: 1, r...
