Abstract

The invention relates to a continuous production process of ultra-pure methyl lactate, which comprises the steps of lactic acid pretreatment, methyl lactate synthesis, light and heavy component separation, methanol separation and recovery, water removal, impurity removal, refining and the like, ultra-pure methyl lactate is produced by using a technology of combining a fixed bed reactor and rectification separation, the product purity is greater than 99.99%, and the unreacted lactic acid and methanol can be recycled. The process solves the problems of low conversion rate, equipment corrosion, environmental pollution and the like in the existing esterification reaction process, realizes continuous production of methyl lactate, and has the advantages of high conversion rate, high reactant utilization rate, no pollution and high product purity.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of organic chemical industry, in particular to a continuous production process of ultra-high-purity methyl lactate. Background technique: [0002] Methyl lactate is a hydroxycarboxylate compound, a colorless liquid, non-toxic, non-volatile, good solubility, and biodegradable. It is a "green solvent" with great development value and application prospects. ", are widely used in medicine, resin coatings, adhesives, cleaning agents, dry cleaning fluids and printing inks and other fields. Methyl lactate can be used alone or as a formula for cleaning solvents. It is used for cleaning various precision machinery and cleaning before surface coating. It is a substitute for ODS (Ozone Depleting Substance) solvent-based cleaning agent. Widely used in the electronics industry, it can be used to clean various optical discs, liquid crystal displays, magnetic heads, chips, circuit board substrates, and modules; it can al...
