Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing anhydrous citric acid crystals. The method comprises the following steps: crystallizing a citric acid solution under the circulating stirring condition to obtain a crystal slurry solution; changing the initial temperature of the crystal slurry solution to repair crystals in the crystal slurry solution, and obtaining a solution containing the anhydrous citric acid crystals, wherein the process of changing the initial temperature of the crystal slurry solution comprises the following steps: (1) heating the crystal slurry solution to 2-20 DEG C after crystallization; (2) cooling the crystal slurry solution to 1-10 DEG C after crystallization; or (3) heating the crystal slurry solution to 2-20 DEG C at first after crystallization and then cooling the heated crystal slurry solution to 2-25 DEG C. Through the technical scheme, recesses in crystal surfaces can be effectively removed, and residues in mother liquid in the crystals are reduced, so that the content of water in the crystals is reduced; moreover, anhydrous citric acid molecules on the crystal surfaces are rearranged in a repair process, so that the quality is effectively improved and readily carbonizable substances are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a production method of anhydrous citric acid crystals. Background technique [0002] At present, the continuous production method of anhydrous citric acid in the industry includes: firstly, the citric acid fermentation liquid is separated from the solid and liquid to obtain the citric acid clear liquid, and then the citric acid clear liquid is extracted by hydrogen-calcium method or calcium salt method, acidolyzed and decolorized to obtain Purified citric acid solution, then heat and concentrate the purified citric acid solution, continuously inject the above-mentioned concentrated citric acid solution into the crystallizer, make the citric acid concentrated solution reach a supersaturated state through evaporation, and the solution will crystallize naturally, and then add The citric acid solution crystallizes while evaporating. When the solid content (anhydrous citric acid crystals) reaches a certain level of the total weight ...
