Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of purification of carbocyclic compounds, and particularly relates to a method for removing nitrosamines in trifluralin. Background Art

[0002] Trifluralin (2,6-dinitro-N,N-dipropyl-4-trifluoromethylaniline), as a broad-spectrum pre-emergence herbicide, is likely to generate the strong carcinogen N-nitrosodipropylamine (nitrosamine) during its synthesis process due to nitration and amination reactions. In traditional processes, the removal of nitrosamines mainly relies on methods such as physical adsorption, chemical pickling, or high-temperature pyrolysis, but there are significant defects.

[0003] The physical adsorption method has certain limitations. In the prior art, adsorbents such as activated carbon and molecular sieves are commonly used to enrich and remove nitrosamines. However, such methods require frequent regeneration of the adsorbent, resulting in an increase in solid waste, and the adsorption efficiency is limited by the specific surface area and pore size distribution of the material, making it difficult to stably control the nitrosamine content below 0.1 ppm.

[0004] Chemical pickling has the risk of secondary pollution. The treatment with strong acids (such as concentrated hydrochloric acid) is the core step of traditional processes, but the cost of treating waste acid accounts for more than 30% of the total production cost. For every 1000 kg of trifluralin produced, about 150 kg of 30% hydrochloric acid is consumed, and 2520 kg of high-COD wastewater is generated, causing serious environmental pollution. In addition, after pickling, a large amount of water washing and alkali neutralization are required, further increasing energy consumption and waste residue discharge. For example, the method for removing nitrosamines in dinitroaniline herbicides disclosed in CN102701989A removes nitrosamines under acidic conditions by adding hydrohalic acid and methanesulfonic acid in an organic solvent, generating a large amount of waste acid and having a high treatment cost; US Patent US5196585A uses hydrochloric acid and sodium sulfite for stepwise treatment. Although the nitrosamine can be reduced to 0.1 ppm, special equipment is required to treat the waste acid, and the reaction time is as long as 9 hours, with extremely high energy consumption.

[0005] The photocatalytic removal technology does not produce waste acid and cause secondary pollution. However, traditional photocatalytic technologies often use catalysts such as TiO2 or Cu / TiO2, which have problems such as high recombination rate of photo-generated carriers and rapid activity decay. For example, the conduction band electrons and valence band holes of TiO2 are prone to rapid recombination, resulting in a high recombination rate of photo-generated carriers. This leads to a low concentration of carriers effectively participating in the reaction and low catalytic efficiency. Moreover, TiO2 is prone to deactivation due to poisoning or a decrease in specific surface area during long-term operation. Traditional catalysts (such as Cu / TiO2-type catalysts) have a large decrease in degradation rate after multiple cycles due to photocorrosion or coverage of active sites. Although fixed-bed reactors can partially recover the catalyst, the carrier stability is insufficient, limiting large-scale application. In summary, the traditional photocatalytic system has a high electron-hole recombination rate and low quantum efficiency, resulting in a generally low degradation rate of nitrosamines below 90%, incomplete removal of nitrosamines, a nitrosamine content > 1 ppm, poor recyclability, insufficient stability, and difficulty in large-scale application.

[0006] In view of the three major pain points of low efficiency, heavy pollution, and high energy consumption in the existing methods for removing nitrosamines from trifluralin, there is an urgent need to develop a green process for efficient degradation, improve the recyclability of raw materials, reduce production costs, and be applicable to large-scale production. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In view of the deficiencies of the existing technology, the present invention provides a method for removing nitrosamines from trifluralin, which can overcome the deficiencies of traditional nitrosamine removal methods, improve the removal efficiency, cause no secondary pollution, reduce energy consumption, lower production costs, and be applicable to large-scale production.

[0008] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solutions adopted by the present invention are as follows: A method for removing nitrosamines from trifluralin includes the following steps: preliminary purification of trifluralin crude product, preparation of an ionic mixture, and photocatalytic decomposition. The method for preliminary purification of the trifluralin crude product is to filter the trifluralin crude product through a 0.45 - 0.6 μm polytetrafluoroethylene filter membrane to remove particulate impurities, and then subject the filtrate to vacuum distillation at 50 - 60 °C and a relative vacuum of -0.08 to -0.10 MPa to remove moisture and low-boiling substances, obtaining the preliminarily purified trifluralin. The content of nitrosamines in the trifluralin crude product is 10 - 300 ppm. The method for preparing the ionic mixture is to add zinc β-monocarboxyl phthalocyanine and sodium tetrachlorobenzoquinone sulfonate to carboxyl-functionalized 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoroacetate, stir at 50 - 60 °C and 500 - 600 rpm for 20 - 30 minutes, and then perform ultrasonic dispersion for 10 - 15 minutes to form a uniform and transparent ionic mixture. The carboxyl-functionalized 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoroacetate is 2-carboxyl-1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoroacetate or 4,5-dicarboxyl-1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoroacetate; The mass ratio of the carboxyl-functionalized 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoroacetate, zinc β-monocarboxyl phthalocyanine, and sodium tetrachlorobenzoquinone sulfonate is 100:0.5-0.6:0.1-0.15; The frequency of the ultrasonic dispersion is 40-50 kHz, and the power is 200-300 W; The method of photocatalytic decomposition is as follows: mix the preliminarily purified trifluralin with the ionic liquid mixture, adjust the temperature of the solution to 50-52 °C, the pH to 3.8-4.2, perform ultrasonic dispersion for 15-20 minutes to form a dispersion, transfer the dispersion to a photocatalytic reactor, introduce pure oxygen, disperse it through a microporous aeration head, turn on the irradiation light source, control the reaction temperature at 54-56 °C, and the irradiation time at 35-40 minutes. Cool the obtained reaction solution to 50-52 °C, and centrifuge and layer it through a centrifuge. The lower-layer ionic liquid is recovered, and the upper layer is the trifluralin product; The mass ratio of the preliminarily purified trifluralin to the ionic liquid mixture is 1:2.5-3; The feeding rate of the pure oxygen is 0.5-0.7 L / min; The pore diameter of the microporous aeration head is 10-15 μm; The wavelength of the irradiation light source is 640-660 nm, and the light source power density is 100-120 mW / cm 2 ; The recovery rate of the ionic liquid is greater than 99%; The recovered ionic liquid is treated by activated carbon adsorption, and vacuum distillation is carried out at 80-85 °C and a relative vacuum degree of -0.08~-0.10 MPa to remove the decomposition products. 0.1-0.15 wt% of the photosensitizer zinc β-monocarboxyl phthalocyanine is replenished for every 5 cycles of loss, and the repeated use of the ionic liquid can be realized; The recovered ionic liquid is a carboxyl-functionalized ionic liquid, which has high stability to visible light and is not easily damaged in structure due to light irradiation during multiple cycles. After the ionic liquid is reused 20 times, the content of nitrosamine in the obtained trifluralin product is less than 0.1 ppm, and the nitrosamine removal rate is greater than 99%.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: (1) The carboxyl-functionalized 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoroacetate ionic liquid used in the present invention has a strong nucleophilic carboxyl group (-COOH), and the nitrogen atom in the nitrosamine molecule has a partial positive charge. The two form a stable complex through electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonding. This complexation causes the nitrosamine to transfer from trifluralin to the ionic liquid, increasing the contact probability between the nitrosamine and the photosensitizer and creating conditions for subsequent photocatalytic degradation.

[0010] Under the irradiation of visible light at 640 - 660 nm, the electrons in the molecule of zinc β-monocarboxyl phthalocyanine absorb photon energy and transition from the ground state to the excited state. The excited zinc β-monocarboxyl phthalocyanine has strong redox ability and can transfer energy to the surrounding molecular oxygen (O2), converting it into singlet oxygen ( 1 O2). Singlet oxygen has strong oxidizing properties and can attack the chemical bonds in the nitrosamine molecule, causing it to undergo an oxidation decomposition reaction, decomposing the nitrosamine into small molecule substances such as carbon dioxide, water, and ammonia, and ultimately achieving the removal of nitrosamine.

[0011] Sodium tetrachlorobenzoquinone sulfonate, as an electron transfer medium, can quickly capture the electrons generated by the excited state of the photosensitizer zinc β-monocarboxyl phthalocyanine, promoting the separation of electron-hole pairs. After the electrons are transferred to sodium tetrachlorobenzoquinone sulfonate, it is reduced, while the holes remain on zinc β-monocarboxyl phthalocyanine, enhancing the oxidation ability of zinc β-monocarboxyl phthalocyanine and continuously generating singlet oxygen to ensure the efficient progress of the photocatalytic reaction. In this process, after being reduced, sodium tetrachlorobenzoquinone sulfonate can be re-oxidized by reacting with oxygen in the system to achieve recycling. (2) The method for removing nitrosamine from trifluralin in the present invention realizes a high removal rate of nitrosamine through the synergistic effect of photocatalysis and ionic liquid, and can reduce the nitrosamine content of 10 - 300 ppm to below 0.1 ppm.

[0012] (3) The method for removing nitrosamine from trifluralin in the present invention recycles the ionic liquid, achieving a 99% recovery rate. It still maintains a high removal ability after being recycled 20 times. The nitrosamine content in the obtained trifluralin product is less than 0.1 ppm, and the nitrosamine removal rate is greater than 99%. This greatly reduces the treatment cost of trifluralin and has no secondary pollution, realizing green production. Specific Embodiments

[0017] Example 4 Take the recycled ionic liquid in Example 1, after activated carbon adsorption treatment, carry out vacuum distillation at 82 °C and a relative vacuum of - 0.09 MPa to remove the decomposition products. According to the scheme of Example 1, replenish 0.12 wt% of the loss of the photosensitizer zinc β - monocarboxyl phthalocyanine every 5 cycles. After repeating the use for 20 times, obtain the reused ionic mixture. Using this ionic mixture, according to the scheme of Example 1, preliminarily purify and photocatalytically decompose the crude trifluralin containing 100 ppm of nitrosamine. The content of nitrosamine in the obtained trifluralin product is 0.08 ppm, and the nitrosamine removal rate is 99.2%.

[0018] Example 5 The ionic liquid recovered in Example 1 was taken.

After being reused 20 times, a reused ionic liquid mixture was obtained. Using this ionic liquid mixture, according to the scheme of Example 1, the trifluralin crude product containing 10 ppm of nitrosamine was preliminarily purified and photocatalytically decomposed. The content of nitrosamine in the obtained trifluralin product was 0.09 ppm, and the nitrosamine removal rate was 99.82%.

[0019] Example 6 The ionic liquid recovered in Example 1 was taken. After being treated by activated carbon adsorption, it was subjected to vacuum distillation at 85 °C and a relative vacuum of -0.10 MPa to remove the decomposition products.

The content of nitrosamine in the obtained trifluralin product was 0.72 ppm; In Example 7, 30 wt% hydrochloric acid was used instead of carboxyl-functionalized 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoroacetate, and nitrosamine could not be effectively transferred from trifluralin to the hydrochloric acid solution, resulting in a higher content of nitrosamine in the obtained trifluralin product.

[0022] Example 9 The ionic liquid recovered in Example 8 was taken. After being treated by activated carbon adsorption, it was subjected to vacuum distillation at 82°C and a relative vacuum of -0.09 MPa to remove the decomposition products. The loss of the photosensitizer was replenished with 0.12 wt% of zinc β-monocarboxyl phthalocyanine every 5 cycles. After being reused 5 times, a reused ionic mixed solution was obtained. Using this ionic mixed solution, the technical herbicide trifluralin crude product containing 100 ppm of nitrosamine was preliminarily purified and photocatalytically decomposed according to the scheme of Example 1. The content of nitrosamine in the obtained trifluralin product was 7.61 ppm; For the ionic liquid without sodium tetrachlorobenzoquinone sulfonate used in Example 9, its reuse performance decreased significantly, indicating that the sodium tetrachlorobenzoquinone sulfonate added to the ionic liquid plays a major role in its reuse performance.
