[0002] In the production process of refined glufosinate ammonium, generally speaking, a refined glufosinate ammonium aqueous solution is obtained, and its concentration ranges from 10% to 20%. The aqueous solution contains not only refined glufosinate ammonium, but also acids or other amino acid compounds and impurities. Usually, most companies adjust the pH of the refined glufosinate ammonium aqueous solution to the required range and increase its concentration to 30% to 50%, and then sell it directly; however, the packaging and transportation costs of selling refined glufosinate ammonium aqueous solution are relatively high, and some downstream customers require refined glufosinate ammonium raw powder.
