Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical production, and in particular to an extraction tower for polypeptide pharmaceutical intermediates. Background Technology

[0002] Extraction towers are often used in the production of pharmaceutical intermediates for liquid-liquid separation. Liquid-liquid extraction utilizes the different distribution ratios between two complementary or partially miscible solvents to achieve the separation and purification of each component.

[0003] Existing pharmaceutical intermediate extraction towers, such as the oscillating extraction tower for pharmaceutical intermediate production disclosed in utility model patent application number 201920786253.4, mainly include a tower body comprising, from top to bottom, a raffinate settling section, an extraction section, and an extract phase settling section. The raffinate settling section has a raffinate discharge outlet at the top of its side wall, the extraction section has an extract liquid inlet on one side at the top and a raw material inlet on one side at the bottom, and the extract phase settling section has an extract phase outlet at the bottom. In use, the oscillating shaft in the extraction section not only drives the oscillating plate to move up and down, thus agitating the two phase media, but also drives the oscillating spring to oscillate irregularly, making the two phase media more fully contacted. The vertical ring plates of different heights on the annular extraction plate can also interfere with the mixing of the media, thereby improving the overall extraction efficiency.

[0004] However, most existing intermediate extraction towers do not regulate temperature. Inaccurate temperature control can easily lead to the inactivation of heat-sensitive peptides. Moreover, most existing extraction towers do not fully mix the extraction solution, resulting in low extraction efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a polypeptide pharmaceutical intermediate extraction tower that not only utilizes a water bath to conveniently heat the drug and improves the precise control of temperature, but also accelerates the full mixing of the extract and the drug by increasing the contact area and stirring, thereby improving the extraction efficiency.

[0006] This utility model discloses an extraction tower for polypeptide pharmaceutical intermediates, comprising an extraction mechanism; it also includes a water bath mechanism, a feeding mechanism, a stirring mechanism, and a waste heat utilization mechanism. The water bath mechanism is installed on the extraction mechanism to heat the drug; the feeding mechanism is installed on the water bath mechanism to transport the drug into the extraction mechanism; the stirring mechanism is installed on the extraction mechanism to accelerate the mixing and contact of the drug and the extractant; and the waste heat utilization mechanism is installed on the extraction mechanism to collect and utilize waste heat. Operators transport the extract into the extraction mechanism, while the feeding mechanism simultaneously transports the drug into the extraction mechanism. The water bath mechanism is activated to heat the drug in the extraction mechanism, and the stirring mechanism is activated to stir the extract to increase the extraction rate. When the temperature inside the extraction mechanism becomes too high, the waste heat utilization mechanism is activated to extract the waste heat to preheat the drug in the feeding mechanism. Then, the stirring mechanism is turned off, and the extract is allowed to separate and discharged.

[0007] Preferably, the extraction mechanism includes an extraction cylinder, a controller, a liquid addition hopper, a sealing cap, and a discharge pipe. The bottom end of the extraction cylinder is connected to the ground, and the inside of the extraction cylinder has a cavity. The controller is installed on the extraction cylinder. The bottom end of the liquid addition hopper is connected to the inside of the top end of the extraction cylinder. The sealing cap is rotatably installed on the liquid addition hopper. The top end of the discharge pipe is connected to the inside of the bottom end of the extraction cylinder. A first valve is installed on the discharge pipe. The operator opens the sealing cap and adds the extract into the cavity of the extraction cylinder through the liquid addition hopper. Then, the operator closes the sealing cap and uses the controller to control the water bath mechanism to heat the extract. After the extraction and stratification are completed, the operator opens the first valve and discharges the drug and extract separately through the discharge pipe.

[0008] Preferably, the water bath mechanism includes an insulation layer, six sets of heating rods, two sets of water inlet pipes, and two sets of second valves. The insulation layer is installed on the extraction cylinder and forms a sandwich between the extraction cylinder and the extraction cylinder. All six sets of heating rods are installed inside the sandwich, and both sets of water inlet pipes are connected to the interior of the sandwich. The two sets of second valves are installed on the two sets of water inlet pipes respectively. The operator opens the upper second valve to deliver clean water into the sandwich through the upper water inlet pipe. The six sets of heating rods heat the clean water to increase the temperature of the extractant in the cavity of the extraction cylinder. After extraction is completed, the lower second valve is opened, and hot water is discharged through the lower water inlet pipe.

[0009] Preferably, the feeding mechanism includes a flange, a feed pipe, a third valve, two sets of branch pipes, and two sets of packing layers. The flange is installed on the reactor, the feed pipe is installed on the flange, the third valve is installed on the feed pipe, both sets of branch pipes are installed on the extraction cylinder and communicate with the inside of the feed pipe, and both sets of packing layers are installed in the cavity of the extraction cylinder. The operator uses bolts to seal the flange to the discharge port of the reactor. The polypeptide pharmaceutical intermediate generated in the reactor is transported to the two sets of packing layers through the feed pipe and the two sets of branch pipes. The two sets of packing layers increase the contact area with the extract by folding, thereby increasing the contact area between the drug and the extract.

[0010] Preferably, the stirring mechanism includes a motor, a reducer, a drive shaft, and two sets of stirring blades. The bottom end of the motor is connected to the top end of the extraction cylinder, and the bottom end of the reducer is connected to the top end of the extraction cylinder. The drive shaft is rotatably installed in the cavity of the extraction cylinder and longitudinally connected to the reducer. Both sets of stirring blades are installed on the drive shaft and are located below the two sets of packing layers respectively. When the motor is started, the motor drives the drive shaft to rotate through the reducer. The drive shaft drives the two sets of stirring blades to rotate. The rotation of the two sets of stirring blades stirs the extract, thereby improving the extraction efficiency of the extract.

[0011] Preferably, the waste heat utilization mechanism includes a heat pump, an extraction pipe, a thermometer, a gas delivery pipe, and a preheating box. The bottom end of the heat pump is connected to the top end of the extraction cylinder. The extraction pipe is installed on the heat pump and communicates with the inside of the top end of the extraction cylinder. The thermometer is installed on the extraction pipe, the gas delivery pipe is installed on the heat pump, and the preheating box is installed on the extraction cylinder and communicates with the inside of the gas delivery pipe. When the thermometer detects that the temperature inside the cavity of the extraction cylinder is too high, the heat pump is started. The heat pump extracts the waste heat from the cavity through the extraction pipe and delivers the heat to the preheating box through the gas delivery pipe. The waste heat is used to preheat the drugs in the feed pipe and the two sets of branch pipes.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the staff delivers the extract to the extraction mechanism, and at the same time the feeding mechanism delivers the drug to the extraction mechanism. The water bath mechanism is started to heat the drug in the extraction mechanism, and the stirring mechanism is started to stir the extract to improve the extraction rate. When the temperature in the extraction mechanism is too high, the waste heat utilization mechanism is started to extract the waste heat to preheat the drug in the feeding mechanism. Then the stirring mechanism is turned off and the extract is discharged in layers. Attached Figure Description
