Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model specifically relates to a clean system for preparing glycine based on the all-aqueous phase method, belonging to the field of clean production technology of glycine. Background Technology

[0002] Glyphosate, chemically known as N-(methyl phosphate)glycine with the chemical formula C3H8NO5P, is an environmentally friendly, broad-spectrum, non-selective herbicide that effectively eliminates 76 of the world's 78 most harmful weeds (primarily annual broadleaf weeds). Currently, the glycine method dominates glyphosate production in China. Glycine, also known as aminoacetic acid, is an important fine chemical product widely used in the pharmaceutical, food, chemical, and pesticide industries. In pharmaceuticals, it is mainly used in amino acid preparations, chlortetracycline buffers, and as an intermediate for imidazole ethyl ester. In the food industry, it is used as a food additive for flavoring, sterilization, preservation, antioxidation, and nutritional fortification. In the pesticide industry, it is mainly used as a raw material for the synthesis of glyphosate and glyphosate-enhancing agents.

[0003] Industrial glycine is mostly produced by the ammonolysis of chloroacetic acid. This process uses chloroacetic acid and liquid ammonia (or ammonia water) as raw materials, with hexamethylenetetramine as a catalyst. The ammonolysis reaction (75–85 °C, atmospheric pressure) yields a mixture containing glycine and ammonium chloride (a byproduct). This mixture is then separated to obtain the glycine product. Currently, the main separation methods are: 1. Alcohol precipitation: A large amount of methanol is added to the mixture of glycine and ammonium chloride. The glycine product is separated based on the difference in solubility of glycine and ammonium chloride in methanol, as shown in CN1340498A. Because the solubility of ammonium chloride in methanol is much lower than its solubility in water, separating glycine and ammonium chloride requires a large amount of methanol. The final product is solid glycine and a methanol solution containing a large amount of ammonium chloride and a small amount of glycine. Furthermore, a large amount of steam is needed to recover the methanol, resulting in high energy consumption. 2. Electrodialysis: Electrodialysis is used to separate glycine and ammonium chloride. While this reduces the amount of methanol used, it increases electricity consumption.

[0004] Although the prior art CN107868015A discloses "a method for preparing a mixed crystal of glycine and ammonium chloride", this production method is only applicable to the preparation of glycine from methanol, and not applicable to the preparation of glycine from an aqueous phase or an alcohol-water phase; and CN109574864A discloses "a new process for the synthesis of glycine", which solves the problems of increased production costs due to the use of an alcohol-water mixture as a solvent, the large energy consumption required for mother liquor distillation, and the low quality of the by-product ammonium chloride in the prior art, a suitable glycine preparation system is still lacking.

[0005] Therefore, there is a need for a low-cost, high-efficiency raw material (catalyst) utilization system that is energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, and clean, and that can be integrated with the glycine synthesis process. Summary of the Invention

Furthermore, ammonia water is effectively recovered and reused, reducing the consumption of raw material ammonia gas.

Detailed Implementation

[0040] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0041] The ammonolysis of chloroacetic acid is the primary method used in glycine synthesis. This method uses hexamethylenetetramine as a catalyst and liquid ammonia (or ammonia water) and chloroacetic acid as the main raw materials. The ammonolysis reaction yields a glycated liquid, which is then separated by alcohol precipitation to obtain glycine, with ammonium chloride as a byproduct. Currently, the ammonolysis process mainly includes ammonolysis, alcohol precipitation crystallization, solvent recovery, and drying. The ammonolysis reaction temperature is 75–85 °C, and the reaction pressure is atmospheric pressure.

[0042] The advantages of ammonolysis of chloroacetic acid include readily available raw materials, a simple process, convenient operation, and low equipment investment. However, due to the relatively small difference in solubility between glycine and ammonium chloride in methanol, the main product glycine and the byproduct ammonium chloride are difficult to separate, resulting in low catalyst utilization and inconvenient treatment of the byproduct ammonium chloride. These factors lead to high purification costs and low glycine yield. Therefore, a system for preparing glycine based on an all-aqueous phase method is proposed.

[0043] The following examples illustrate this.

[0046] For both filter I4 and filter II6, vacuum belt filters are preferred.

[0047] In the production of glycine, this preparation system effectively recovers glycine from the filtrate produced during the glycine preparation process and reuses it with the catalyst hexamethylenetetramine to improve the single-pass yield of glycine and reduce the consumption of the catalyst hexamethylenetetramine; at the same time, it realizes the comprehensive utilization of ammonium chloride-containing wastewater, etc.
