Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a new method for treating glyphosate mother liquor for preparing glyphosate by an alkyl ester method. Background technique
[0002] Glyphosate is a herbicide that kills herbicides. At present, the domestic production of glyphosate mostly uses the alkyl ester method. This process produces a large amount of acidic mother liquor containing chloride ions (abbreviated as acid mother liquor) while producing the technical glyphosate, which contains a large amount of catalyst triethylamine used in synthesis. Domestic glyphosate manufacturers usually adopt liquid alkali neutralization process when dealing with the acid mother liquor to recover the catalyst triethylamine: add 30% sodium hydroxide solution to the acid mother liquor, adjust the pH value to 10-12, let it stand for stratification, and the upper layer It is triethylamine, which is recovered and reused in the synthesis of glyphosate. The lower layer is called alkaline mother ...
