Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of taurine refining, and in particular to a taurine refining process and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Taurine, also known as 2-aminoethanesulfonic acid, is a sulfur-containing organic acid that is widely present in animal tissues, especially in the heart, brain and retina. It is named because it was first obtained in cow bile. It participates in many physiological functions, such as bile acid binding, anti-oxidation, and regulating calcium ion balance. Taurine in the human body is synthesized by corresponding enzymes using cysteine as a raw material, but the activity of cysteinesulfinic acid decarboxylase in the human body, that is, the enzyme required for synthesizing taurine, is very low. This leads to the limited ability of the human body to synthesize taurine, which cannot meet the human body's needs for taurine. Taurine is mainly taken from the outside to meet the human body's needs for taurine. As a food additive, taurine has broad market prospects and extremely high commercial value, and the research on taurine is of great practical significance.
[0003] Traditional technology uses extraction from natural organisms such as seafood. Although taurine extracted from seafood is rich in raw materials and simple to operate, the process cost is too high and cannot meet people's demand for taurine. In the prior art, taurine is synthesized industrially, and there are currently a variety of commonly used routes, such as the ethanolamine method and the ethylene oxide method. After the synthesis is completed, crystallization is the most commonly used separation and purification method in the product refining process, but the finished products of the taurine crystallization process in the prior art are mostly needle-shaped, with low bulk density and easy to break, high transportation and storage costs, and are also accompanied by low purity and low yield. Problems, therefore, the crystallization process in the refining process needs to be further improved.
[0004] In summary, in order to solve the above problems, it is of great significance to provide a refining process for taurine crystals with high yield, good purity and small aspect ratio. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a taurine refining process and application thereof to solve the problems raised in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: A taurine refining process comprises the following steps: S1: Add ethylene oxide and sodium bisulfite into a reactor, perform ring-opening hydroxylation to synthesize sodium isethionate, and then perform aminolysis, acidification, and centrifugation to obtain crude taurine; S2: Add the crude taurine to deionized water, heat to 90-95°C, stir until completely dissolved, add activated carbon, perform ultrasonic treatment, filter while hot, and obtain a filtrate; S3: Cool the filtrate once, add seed crystals, and stir evenly; cool it twice, keep it warm for 1-2 hours, add additives, and stir evenly; cool it three times, keep it warm for 1-2 hours; centrifuge and filter, dry, and obtain taurine.

[0009] Preferably, the additive is added in an amount of 0.2-0.4 wt % of the crude taurine.
[0010] Preferably, the filtrate comprises the following raw materials, in parts by mass: 22-24 parts of crude taurine, 60-70 parts of deionized water, and 0.25-0.5 parts of activated carbon.
[0011] Preferably, the preparation method of the additive comprises the following steps: adding Tween-20, a modifier, and 2,3-diaminosuccinic acid to acetone and stirring evenly, adding ferric chloride, stirring at 80-95° C. for 10-12 hours, separating and removing the solvent, and obtaining the additive.
[0012] Preferably, the additive comprises the following raw materials, calculated by mass: 30-34 parts of Tween-20, 1-3 parts of modifier, 1-3 parts of 2,3-diaminosuccinic acid, 100-120 parts of acetone, and 0.05-0.1 parts of ferric chloride.
[0013] Preferably, the preparation method of the modifier comprises the following steps: (1) uniformly mixing 9 to 11 parts of cholic acid, 2 to 2.5 parts of N-methylmaleimide, 5 to 6 parts of dimethylacetamide, 5 to 6 parts of anhydrous ethanol and 4 to 5 parts of tetrahydrofuran, stirring at 0 to 5° C. for 10 to 15 minutes, and filtering to obtain a filtrate; (2) Add 3-5 parts of D-aminoglucosic acid to 20-24 parts of deionized water and stir evenly, add 70-80 parts of the filtrate, stir at 50-55°C for 3-4 hours, and evaporate the solvent to obtain cholylated aminoglucosic acid; (3) Add 3-5 parts of cholylated aminoglucosamine to 15-20 parts of deionized water and stir evenly, then add dropwise 55 wt% sulfuric acid solution at 15-20° C. until the pH value is 3-4, and evaporate the solvent to obtain a modifier.
[0014] Preferably, the filtrate comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 9 to 11 parts of cholic acid, 2 to 2.5 parts of N-methylmaleimide, 5 to 6 parts of dimethylacetamide, 5 to 6 parts of anhydrous ethanol, and 4 to 5 parts of tetrahydrofuran; The bile acylated glucosamine acid comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 3-5 parts of D-glucosamine acid, 20-24 parts of deionized water, and 70-80 parts of filtrate; The modifier comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 3 to 5 parts of cholylated aminoglucosamine acid and 15 to 20 parts of deionized water.
[0015] Preferably, the taurine prepared by the refining process can be used as a food additive.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) The present invention adopts a multi-step cooling crystallization method to refine and crystallize the crude taurine product, improve the purity and yield of taurine crystals, improve the aspect ratio and morphology of the crystals, and improve the uniformity of the crystals. First, the temperature is lowered once to make the solution reach a saturated state, and crystal seeds are added, which helps to uniformly distribute the crystal particle size and improve the crystallization efficiency; the second cooling is to cool down to 55-58°C at a slower cooling rate of 5-10°C / h, which can reduce the crystallization rate of taurine and reduce the purity reduction caused by the introduction of impurities during the crystallization process. If the cooling rate is too fast, it will cause taurine in the mother liquor to explode into nuclei, the uniformity of the crystals will be greatly reduced, and the aspect ratio of the crystals will increase, forming needles, which are easy to break during transportation or use. After that, the temperature is kept warm so that the crystals have sufficient time to grow slowly. At this time, the introduction of Tween-20 can hinder the growth of the long axis of the crystal, thereby reducing the aspect ratio. At this time, the crystal has grown to a certain size. At this time, adding Tween-20 can reduce the impact on the purity of the crystal. If it is added too early, the crystal growth points may be less, so spontaneous nucleation will occur, reducing the uniformity and purity of the product. If too much additive is added, the adsorption on the long axis surface has long been saturated, and the hindering effect is not improved much, which increases the cost and may cause the product purity to decrease due to the increase in impurities. The long axis of the taurine crystal is mostly hydrophilic groups of amino and sulfonic acid groups. The hydrophilic segment in Tween-20 is more easily adsorbed on the long axis through hydrogen bonding, thereby closing the key growth points on the crystal surface and reducing the aspect ratio of the crystal, while the hydrophobic end helps to remove it in the subsequent washing process, thereby improving the purity. At the same time, due to the continuous precipitation of crystals, the taurine content is reduced, and the three coolings slightly increase the cooling rate, increase the crystallization rate, and thus increase production efficiency.
[0017] (2) In order to further improve the crystallization hindering effect of Tween-20 on the long axis surface, the present invention modified Tween-20 by preparing a modifier containing a sulfate group using D-aminoglucosic acid and grafting Tween-20 with 3-diaminosuccinic acid, thereby introducing carboxyl groups, amino groups and sulfate groups. The carboxyl groups and sulfate groups will form ionic bonds with the amino molecules on the long axis surface, and the amino groups will form ionic bonds with the sulfonic acid groups on the long axis surface. Compared with hydrogen bonding, the bonding is stronger, so the hindering effect is better, thereby reducing the aspect ratio of the crystal. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
