Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical process technology, specifically to a method for treating phosphorus-containing wastewater generated during the preparation of sulfonamide compounds. Background Technology

[0002] Sulfonamides were the earliest synthetic antibacterial drugs, typically appearing as white or pale yellow crystalline powders. Since their invention and application in the 1930s, sulfonamides have been widely studied and valued as the most promising antibacterial drugs due to their ease of production, storage, efficacy, convenience, and low cost. With over 80 years of history, more than 8,500 sulfonamide drugs have been synthesized, with over 20 commonly used clinically, including sulfadiazine, sulfamethoxypyrimidine, and sulfadiazine. While antibiotics and quinolones have gradually replaced sulfonamides with the discovery and development of various antibiotics, sulfonamides still possess unique advantages such as a broad antibacterial spectrum, stability, ease of use, low cost, and the ability to be mass-produced without consuming grain. Sulfonamides remain an important drug in the treatment of infections in livestock and poultry.

[0003] The production of sulfonamide drugs generates a variety of wastewater, making treatment complex. Phosphorus-containing wastewater is often treated by distillation, but the resulting inorganic salts cannot be recovered, and solid waste treatment is costly. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this invention is to provide a method for treating phosphorus-containing wastewater generated during the preparation of sulfonamide compounds. The method provided by this invention obtains trisodium phosphate and calcium phosphate from the phosphorus-containing wastewater generated during the preparation of sulfonamide compounds, resulting in a low phosphorus content in the final mother liquor after treatment.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] This invention provides a method for treating phosphorus-containing wastewater generated during the preparation of sulfonamide compounds, comprising the following steps:

[0007] After removing the solvent from the crude sulfonamide compound solution, water is added, or water is added to the crude sulfonamide compound solution to allow for layering, resulting in a condensed aqueous phase. The pH of the condensed aqueous phase is adjusted to 5.5–6.0, and solid-liquid separation is performed to obtain a first solid component and a first mother liquor. The first solid component is dried to obtain the sulfonamide compound. The crude sulfonamide compound solution is obtained by chlorinating phosphorus oxychloride and a hydroxyl group, acidifying at a pH of 3–3.5, and then condensing with sulfonamide. The acid used to adjust the pH to 5.5–6.0 includes the acid obtained during the acidification process.

[0008] The pH of the first mother liquor was adjusted to 12-13 with sodium hydroxide, and the temperature was lowered to 0-10℃ to induce crystallization. The solid and liquid components were separated to obtain the second solid component and the second mother liquor, respectively. The second solid component was dried to obtain trisodium phosphate.

[0009] The second mother liquor was mixed with calcium chloride to carry out a precipitation reaction, and the solid and liquid were separated to obtain a third solid component and a final mother liquor; the third solid component was dried to obtain calcium phosphate.

[0010] Preferably, before adding water to the crude sulfonamide compound solution, the process further includes: removing the solvent from the crude sulfonamide compound solution;

[0011] The condensed aqueous phase is first decolorized by a first activated carbon, and then the pH value is adjusted to 5.5-6.0;

[0012] The first mother liquor is first decolorized by a second activated carbon and then separated into solid and liquid components. The resulting liquid component is then adjusted to pH 12-13 with sodium hydroxide.

[0013] Preferably, before cooling to 0-10°C, a third activated carbon decolorization process is performed;

[0014] The crystallization time is 1 to 2 hours.

[0015] Preferably, the molar ratio of calcium chloride to trisodium phosphate in the second mother liquor is 1.5 to 1.6:1.

[0016] Preferably, the method for preparing the crude sulfonamide compound liquid includes the following steps:

[0017] Phosphorus oxychloride and hydroxyl compounds are subjected to a chlorination reaction to obtain a chlorinated reaction solution;

[0018] The chlorinated reaction solution obtained from the chlorination reaction is mixed with a water-immiscible solvent and ice water, and the pH value is adjusted to 3-3.5. The mixture is then separated into an organic phase and an acidic aqueous phase. The organic phase is evaporated to dryness to obtain chloride. The acidic aqueous phase is reused in the step of adjusting the pH value to 5.5-6.0.

[0019] The chloride, sulfonamide, organic solvent, and alkaline reagent are mixed and subjected to a condensation reaction to obtain the crude product liquid of the sulfonamide compound.

[0020] Preferably, the hydroxyl group includes maleic hydrazine or 2-hydroxyquinoxaline;

[0021] The molar ratio of the hydroxyl group to phosphorus oxychloride is 1:2 to 2.2;

[0022] The chlorination reaction is carried out at a temperature of 100–105°C for 1.5–2 hours.

[0023] Preferably, the water-immiscible solvent includes one or more of dichloromethane, chloroform, dichloroethane, and toluene;

[0024] The alkali used to adjust the pH value to 3-3.5 includes one or more of sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, and sodium bicarbonate.

[0025] Preferably, the molar ratio of sulfonamide to chloride is 1:0.95 to 1;

[0029] Preferably, the acidic aqueous phase is first decolorized with a fourth activated carbon before use.

[0030] In this invention, phosphorus oxychloride and hydroxyl groups undergo a chlorination reaction, followed by acidification at a pH of 3-3.5 to produce chloride, hydrochloric acid, and phosphoric acid. These then undergo a condensation reaction with sulfonamides to produce sulfonamide compounds and sodium carbonate. This invention utilizes the hydrochloric acid and phosphoric acid (acidic aqueous phase) generated during the sulfonamide compound production process, as well as the sodium carbonate produced during the condensation reaction, for neutralization, thus reducing the production of sulfonamide compounds and the consumption of acid and alkali in the treatment of phosphorus-containing wastewater. The pH of the condensation aqueous phase is adjusted to 5.5-6.0 to produce dihydrogen phosphate. Sodium dihydrogen phosphate and disodium hydrogen phosphate are added, and then sodium hydroxide is added to adjust the pH to 12-13, so that sodium dihydrogen phosphate and disodium hydrogen phosphate are completely converted into trisodium phosphate. Taking advantage of the significant solubility difference between trisodium phosphate and sodium chloride at low temperatures of 0-10℃, trisodium phosphate is separated. Finally, calcium chloride and sodium phosphate form calcium phosphate precipitate, and solid-liquid separation is used to remove most of the phosphate ions from the second mother liquor. Sodium chloride remains in the final mother liquor, thus achieving full recovery of inorganic salts from phosphorus-containing wastewater and achieving deep phosphorus removal. This invention provides a new approach to the treatment of phosphorus-containing wastewater, considering its treatment during the process design stage, and offering a new option for treating phosphorus-containing wastewater from other similar products. It also reduces enterprise production costs, especially waste solids treatment costs.

[0031] Furthermore, this invention uses a water-immiscible solvent and ice water as the hydrolysis system for phosphorus oxychloride, and adjusts the pH to 3-3.5 so that the hydrochloric acid in the phosphorus oxychloride hydrolysate is basically neutralized into sodium chloride, thereby retaining phosphoric acid; at the same time, this pH range also utilizes the water-immiscible solvent to completely extract and separate chloride from water.
