Abstract

The invention discloses a method for purifying nicotine by using a subcritical extraction-molecular distillation coupling technique, belonging to the technical field of extraction separation of natural plants. The method mainly comprises three steps of operation: pretreatment of raw materials, subcritical extraction and molecular distillation; in the pretreatment phase of raw materials, an alkaline water solution is sprayed in tobacco leaves, so the existence form of nicotine is changed from a combination form to a free form; nicotine dissolution is accelerated by solvent-less microwave treatment; and combined with the subcritical extraction-molecular distillation coupling technique, the extraction rate and purity of nicotine can be obviously improved. Butane and dimethyl ether are used as extraction agents in subcritical extraction, so the hazard brought about by organic solvents such as ethyl acetate and petroleum ether to operators and environment can be avoided, the safety is good, and the butane and dimethyl ether can be recycled for saving cost. Molecular distillation adopts a low-temperature one-grade distillation technique, and has few processes and small energy consumption. The nicotine purifying process disclosed by the invention is simple, convenient in operation and suitable for large-scale production and application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for purifying nicotine by using subcritical extraction-molecular distillation combined technology, and belongs to the technical field of natural plant extraction and separation. Background technique [0002] Nicotine is a unique alkaloid in tobacco, and its content accounts for about 95% of the total amount of tobacco alkaloids. It is one of the main indicators for evaluating the quality of tobacco leaves and the main indicator for measuring the taste of cigarettes. High-purity nicotine has good development prospects in the pharmaceutical industry and agricultural fields. For example, in the pharmaceutical field, it is used as a raw material for the development of drugs for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, skin diseases, snake bites and other diseases. In agriculture, it is mainly used to produce insecticides. agent. [0003] Traditional nicotine extraction methods include steam distillation, organic solvent ...
