Problems solved by technology

The current decolorization techniques are as follows: Potassium permanganate oxidation-sodium bisulfite reduction method, which will produce a large amount of refractory Mn-containing 2+ waste water; the hydrogen peroxide oxidation method has low decolorization efficiency and low protein removal rate. If the protein removal rate needs to be further reduced, a longer treatment time is required, and chitin or chitosan may be seriously damaged during long-term treatment. Degradation; and the formic acid decolorization method, the decolorization efficiency is low, and to achieve a good decolorization effect, multiple long-term treatments are required, and the final chitosan obtained has a higher protein content

Embodiment 1

[0040] In a glass flask, 10 g of crude chitin was added to 100 g of a decolorizing agent (a mixed solution containing 60% by weight of formic acid, 9% by weight of hydrogen peroxide and 31% by weight of water) and mixed at room temperature for 5 minutes to perform decolorization pretreatment . The mixture was then filtered. The resulting solid was washed and dried to obtain decolorized chitin.

[0041] Mix 7 g of decolorized chitin with 140 g of NaOH aqueous solution having a concentration of 50% by weight, heat to boiling, and heat to boil for 2 hours to carry out deacetylation reaction. The mixture was then filtered. The resulting solid was washed with water until neutral to obtain wet chitosan.

[0042] The wet chitosan was vacuum-dried at 50° C. to obtain a dry chitosan product, the color of which was pure white, and the protein impurity content was 0.6% by weight.

Embodiment 2

[0044]In a glass flask, 10 g of crude chitin was added to 100 g of a decolorizing agent (a mixed solution containing 20% ​​by weight of formic acid, 25% by weight of hydrogen peroxide and 55% by weight of water) and mixed at room temperature for 30 minutes to perform decolorization pretreatment . The mixture was then filtered. The resulting solid was washed and dried to obtain decolorized chitin.

[0045] 8 g of the obtained decolorized chitin was mixed with 160 g of NaOH aqueous solution having a concentration of 4% by weight, and heated to 100° C. for 2 hours to perform deproteinization pretreatment. The mixture was then filtered. The resulting solid was washed with water and dried to obtain deproteinized chitin.

[0046] Mix 7 g of deproteinized chitin with 140 g of NaOH aqueous solution having a concentration of 50% by weight, heat to boiling, and heat to boil for 2 hours to carry out deacetylation reaction. The mixture was then filtered. The resulting solid was washe...

Embodiment 3

[0049] In a glass flask, 10 g of crude chitin was added to 100 g of a decolorizing agent (a mixed solution containing 40% by weight of formic acid, 16% by weight of hydrogen peroxide and 44% by weight of water) and mixed at room temperature for 10 minutes to perform decolorization pretreatment . The mixture was then filtered. The resulting solid was washed and dried to obtain decolorized chitin.

[0050] 8 g of the obtained decolorized chitin was mixed with 160 g of NaOH aqueous solution having a concentration of 10% by weight, and heated to 105° C. for 2 hours to perform deproteinization pretreatment. The mixture was then filtered. The resulting solid was washed with water and dried to obtain deproteinized chitin.

[0051] Mix 7 g of deproteinized chitin with 140 g of NaOH aqueous solution having a concentration of 50% by weight, heat to boiling, and heat to boil for 2 hours to carry out deacetylation reaction. The mixture was then filtered. The resulting solid was washe...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing chitosan by taking crude chitin as a raw material. The method comprises the steps of: performing decolouring pretreatment on the crude chitin by using a mixed solution of formic acid and hydrogen peroxide; and performing on a deacetylation reaction on the decolored pre-treated crude chitin. The method enables faster and more efficient decolorization ofthe chitin material, and enables the preparation of the chitosan product with the significantly lower protein content.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of utilization of aquatic product processing waste, and in particular relates to a method for preparing chitosan by using crude chitin as a raw material. Background technique [0002] Chitosan is the only natural alkaline polysaccharide found so far. It has the characteristics of non-toxicity, biodegradability and good biocompatibility. It is widely used in medicine, food, chemical industry, cosmetics, water treatment, metal extraction and recovery. It has broad application prospects in many fields such as biochemical and biomedical engineering, especially chitosan with low protein content has broad application prospects in the field of medical materials. [0003] Chitosan is generally prepared from chitin by deacetylation reaction. Chitin is widely found in the crustaceans of shrimp and crabs, and in the crustaceans of insects. It is estimated that the annual biosynthesis of chitin in nature is nearly 10 ...
