TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of waste tobacco reutilization, in particular to a high-value comprehensive utilization method of waste tobacco. BACKGROUND
[0002] Tobacco contains a variety of active substances, and more than 3000 compounds have been identified, among which important compounds such as solanesol, nicotine, rutin, chlorogenic acid, tobacco essential oil, tobacco protein and tobacco polysaccharide have wide application in chemical industry, medicine, agriculture and other fields, and have important development and utilization value. Extracting active substances from waste tobacco and developing and utilizing them can not only change waste tobacco into raw materials needed for production, but also effectively reduce environmental pollution, in line with the concept of green development. Solanesol is a long-chain terpene alcohol, and its content in tobacco is about 0.3%-0.8%. Solanesol is also an important pharmaceutical intermediate, an irreplaceable component of ubiquinone drug intermediates, and a natural raw material that cannot be replaced in the synthesis of vitamin K side chains and coenzyme Q10, as well as in the synthesis of anti-ulcer drugs and anticancer drugs. As a medicinal raw material, the content of solanesol is required to be more than 90%, therefore, preparing solanesol with a purity higher than 90% is the key to the in-depth development and utilization of solanesol. Nicotine, also known as nicotine, is a biological alkaloid with very wide application. Nicotine can produce certain physiological stimulation to humans, thereby producing addiction, which is the main factor that makes tobacco have commodity value. In addition, rutin and chlorogenic acid are also important active substances in tobacco, and have important research and development value. Rutin can be used as an edible antioxidant and a nutritional enhancer, in addition, rutin also has anti-inflammatory effects, maintains vascular resistance, reduces its permeability, reduces fragility, and can be used for the prevention and treatment of cerebral hemorrhage, hypertension, retinal hemorrhage, purpura and acute hemorrhagic nephritis. Chlorogenic acid has a wide range of antibacterial effects, can increase the central excitability of rats, increase the small intestine peristalsis of rats and mice, and increase the uterine tension of rats; has choleretic effect, can increase the bile secretion of rats, etc. In recent years, with the in-depth study of tobacco, the good application value of active substances in tobacco has gradually been recognized and accepted by people. Extracting nicotine, solanesol, rutin, chlorogenic acid, tobacco essential oil, tobacco plant protein and plant polysaccharide and other substances from waste tobacco not only has high economic value, but also brings new opportunities for tobacco-related enterprises and tobacco farmers; at the same time, it also makes certain contribution to the construction of a resource-saving and environment-friendly society.
[0003] In recent years, the utilization of waste tobacco mainly includes direct use as raw material to produce organic fertilizer through fermentation; in addition, nicotine and solanesol and other high-value deep processing products are extracted first, and then the remaining residues are used as raw materials to produce organic fertilizer. This is easy to lead to the waste of other active substances in tobacco, therefore, it is of great significance to improve the comprehensive utilization rate of waste tobacco and prepare more active substances with high added value.
[0004] Patent with publication number CN104086425 studies a method for simultaneously extracting chlorogenic acid, solanesol, nicotine and rutin. The method is to use ethanol as a solvent to simultaneously extract the above four substances, and then to achieve separation by steps. The obtained nicotine is nicotine sulfate with a purity of 40%, and the obtained solanesol is a crude product. If further purification is needed, column chromatography is needed. Patent with publication number CN103342628 discloses a method for simultaneously extracting nicotine and solanesol, which uses alkaline ethanol to simultaneously extract nicotine and solanesol, and then acidifies and extracts to separate nicotine and solanesol. Patent with publication number CN114534361A discloses a method for simultaneously extracting tobacco essential oil, nicotine and extract, but the purity of the obtained products is not high, which is inconsistent with the method used in the present application.
[0005] Therefore, the current development and utilization of waste tobacco still has the problems of insufficient comprehensive utilization value of high-value waste tobacco, serious resource waste, complex production process, low product purity, excessive energy consumption and the like. SUMMARY

These not only simplify the process, but also will greatly reduce a large part of energy consumption. According to a processing capacity of 10,000 tons of waste tobacco raw materials per year, more than 30 million yuan of energy consumption expenditure can be saved annually; it meets the requirements of national green and low-carbon production.
