Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of amino acid production equipment, and relates to a membrane filtration dialysis water recycling system for L-hydroxyproline production. Background Technology

[0002] L-Hydroxyproline, with the molecular formula C5H9NO3 and a molecular weight of 131.10, is a white, flaky crystal or powder. It is relatively stable at room temperature and pressure, slightly soluble in ethanol, and insoluble in ether. It is a non-essential amino acid, primarily found in animal collagen, where it strengthens the elasticity and resilience of connective tissue. Recent studies have found that L-hydroxyproline plays a crucial role in maintaining the cellular structure and function of plant, animal, and human cells. Due to its unique chemical and physiological structure, L-hydroxyproline has been widely used in medicine, chemical engineering, cosmetics, and disease diagnosis. There are three methods for producing L-hydroxyproline: biological tissue extraction, chemical synthesis, and microbial fermentation. Microbial fermentation is the primary method for L-hydroxyproline production, but it still faces challenges such as high content of impurities, low purity, low yield, high cost, significant environmental pollution from emissions, and difficulty in treating wastewater and waste residue.

[0003] Membrane filtration possesses advantages such as high temperature resistance, good chemical stability, and resistance to microbial attack, making it widely applicable in chemical, biological, and food industries.

Specifically, the flow direction is: inlet 4013 → input chamber 404 → input hole 406 → filter hole of hollow filter rod 405 → filter hole of hollow filter sleeve 409 → filter hole of hollow filter cylinder 4010 → output hole 4011 → output chamber 408 → outlet 4014. The water flowing through this membrane filtration device 4 will undergo multi-stage filtration. The L-hydroxyproline membrane filtration dialysis water after staged filtration can be recycled.
