Embodiment 1

[0017] Example 1: In a three-neck flask equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer and a condenser tube, add a solution of 92mL of 95% to 98% sulfuric acid and 60mL of water, start stirring, and heat the flask with an external oil bath. When it reaches 100°C, add 300mL of 50% hydroxyacetonitrile dropwise to produce a strong hydrolysis reaction, control the reaction temperature at 115-120°C, and boil and reflux for 6 hours to obtain a hydrolyzate. The conversion rate of hydroxyacetonitrile was determined to be 99.3%. Add 1g of activated carbon for decolorization, stop heating, filter while hot, and filter out the activated carbon. Adjust the pH value of the hydrolyzate to 0.5-2.0 by using ammonium bicarbonate or ammonia water in the filtrate. Cool to room temperature, and salt out. Filtrate and desalt to obtain a glycolic acid aqueous solution containing inorganic acids and salts, adjust and control the glycolic acid content in the hydrolyzed solution with water.

Embodiment 2

[0018] Embodiment 2: prepare glycolic acid aqueous solution according to embodiment 1, extraction hydrolyzate is water phase (W), pH value 0.5, glycolic acid content: 600g / L, ethyl acetate (O) is oil phase, adopts intermittent stirring extraction. In a three-neck flask equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer and a condenser tube, add 25mL of hydrolyzate and 25mL of ethyl acetate, control the extraction temperature, stir, and make the extractant ethyl acetate and glycolic acid mixed aqueous solution contact. Comparison: O / W=1, extraction temperature=10°C, extraction time=10min. After phase separation, the organic phase was distilled under reduced pressure at a heating temperature of 45°C to obtain white solid glycolic acid. Once extracted, the yield of glycolic acid was 6%.

Embodiment 3

[0019] Embodiment 3: Prepare glycolic acid aqueous solution according to embodiment 1, pH value is 1.0, glycolic acid content: 600g / L. Using the same device as in Example 2 for extraction, comparison: O / W=3, extraction temperature=35°C, extraction time=10min. After phase separation, the organic phase was distilled under reduced pressure at a heating temperature of 45°C to obtain white solid glycolic acid. Once extracted, the yield of glycolic acid was 24%.

Abstract

The present invention relates to process of extracting and purifying hydroxyacetic acid with ester solvent from hydroxyacetic acid aqua obtained through hydrolyzing hydroxyacetonitrile in acid medium. The process includes the steps of treating the hydrolysate, salting out, extracting hydroxyacetic acid, recovering salt and concentrating. The present invention has the technological advantages of simple technological process, low investment, no need of back extraction, facile extractant with stable property, low cost, etc; and may be used in industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for extracting and purifying glycolic acid with an ester solvent, which belongs to the technical field of organic chemical synthesis and refining, and is particularly suitable for extracting glycolic acid from hydroxyacetonitrile hydrolyzate. Background technique [0002] Glycolic acid (also known as glycolic acid) has low toxicity, low corrosion, low odor, biodegradable, and is a water-soluble metal chelating agent with good performance. From its structural formula HO-CH 2 -COOH It can be seen that glycolic acid also has dual chemical characteristics, which makes it not only widely used in the synthesis of various intermediates, but also its unique chelating ability for metals makes it widely used in both civil and industrial cleaning fields. good effect. Glycolic acid widely exists in plants in nature, but it is difficult to separate and extract because of its low content and coexistence with other substances. At ...
