Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the research field of continuous production of glyphosate by dimethyl ester method. Background technique
[0002] Glyphosate is a low-toxicity, high-efficiency, broad-spectrum herbicide. It was first successfully developed by Monsanto Company of the United States in 1974 and has applied for patent protection in many countries around the world. In the mid-to-late 1990s, with the successive expiration of its patent protection in various countries in the world and the widespread planting of glyphosate-resistant transgenic crops, the application of glyphosate has developed rapidly, becoming the largest and fastest-growing pesticide variety.
[0003] There are many synthetic methods of glyphosate, but currently only two industrialized process routes are used, namely the IDA process and the alkyl ester process. The alkyl ester process is the process route adopted by most of the production enterprises in our country. Alkyl ester pro...
