Description

[0001] METHOD FOR PRODUCING CHELATE COMPLEXES OF LIGNOSULFONATES

[0002] TECHNICAL FIELD

[0003] This invention relates to the method for obtaining chelated complexes based on organic Complexones and biogenic metals. The use of chelated complexes provides a much greater availability of microelements when using in agriculture, as microfertilizers, in animal husbandry for cattle and poultry, as a feed additive, as well as in the production of food micronutrient additives.

[0004] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0005] Complexones based on EDTA and Glycine perform only the transport function of delivering nutrient metals, but themselves are ballast compounds for soil, plants or animals. At the same time, EDTA salts are not allowed in Russia and the EU for the production of feed additives. In contrast to EDTA Complexones, chelated complexes by proposed technology, obtained on the basis of lignosulfonic acids transformed by nitration, in addition to the chelating and transport functions, contain natural and valuable components for plant and animal nutrition: a wide range of amino acids and vitamins, fulvi-humic acids, high-molecular carbohydrates in the form of mono and polysaccharides [1], [2],

[0006] An important feature of the proposed technology is the ability for the manufacturer to abandon the import of expensive EDTA and Glycine Complexones and implement its own production of Complexones in the same technological chain with the production of chelated complexes. At the same time, the raw material Lignosulfonate Technical (LST) is a relatively cheap and accessible raw material, which is used for the production of organo-mineral fertilizers, growth stimulants, for production of feed and food additives and even pharmaceuticals. These raw materials are produced and sold in Russia in large volumes, both for the domestic market and for export.

[0007] The method for producing of Iron lignosulfonate chelate, which can be used in agriculture and veterinary medicine is known according to Patent RU 2165936 published 27.04.2004, in which mix it up a chelating agent with a salt of bi- or ferric iron, wherein nitrosated lignosulfonic acids formed at the stage of preparation of chelate are used as a chelating agent, and iron salts are administered in two stages.

[0008] In order to achieve the maximum Iron chelate capacity, the remaining amount of Iron salt is added to the chelate solution after the nitrosation reaction is completed.

[0009] In the Patent RU 2660929 published 11.07.2018, the ORGANIC COMPONENT OF THE NUTRIENT MIXTURE FOR PLANTS is known that LST modified by nitration is used with the help of concentrated nitric acid, the nutrient mixture is synthesized as follows. 1 ml of concentrated nitric acid (concentration 63.6%) was added to 100 ml of a 10% LST solution. The duration of nitration was 60 minutes. After the nitration was completed, the following nutrients were dissolved in the reaction mixture with stirring (in % of the weight of the initial LST: FeSO4-7H2O - 80; H3BO3- 7,4; ZnSO4-7H2O - 14,2; CoCI2-6H2O - 3,9; (NH4)6MO7O24H2O - 28,9; MnCI2-4H2O - 11 ,6; MgSO4-7H2O - 32,6; CuSO4-5H2O - 12,6; Urea - 100; K2HPO4-3H2O - 1 ,5). It was controlled by germination of wheat. Germination was carried out for 7 days, controlling the height of the sprouts and the length of the roots. The average height of the plants was 16.0 cm, the weight of all plants was 6.6 g (on a completely dry matter).

[0010] SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0011] The technological problem is to develop a continuous technological cycle for the production of liquid chelated complexes with a high chelated capacity, based on complexone, which is used as a nitration-transformed LST mixed with cations biogenic metals.

[0012] The technical result of the method is to ensure long-term stability of the liquid chelated complex with a high concentration of retained biogenic metals.

[0013] A feature of the proposed method and production of chelated complexes is that a continuous technological cycle is proposed based on an improved method of nitration of technical LST, which provides a high effect of chelation and cation retention with minimal foaming and separation of nitrogen oxides.

[0014] The nitration technology is carried out under the proven conditions of the process (time, temperature, sequence of actions, kinetics) and the selected optimal balance of the active components in the reaction mixture. This made it possible to ensure effective complex formation and retain biogenic metal ions in concentrations that are not inferior or even exceed the results of other technologies for the production of chelated complexes.

[0015] The essence of the method for obtaining chelated complexes includes nitration of an aqueous solution of technical lignosulfonates (LST) with the help of nitric acid with the subsequent addition of inorganic salts of biogenic metals.

[0016] The key parameters of the method (technology) are the balance and concentration of components, nitration time, temperature of the reaction mixture, the rate and sequence of dissolution of biogenic metal salts, as well as the time and method of stabilization of the solution until the finished liquid chelated complex is obtained. Thus, in the process of research, it was determined that the maximum reactivity of chelation was observed with the addition of biogenic metal salts not earlier than 30 minutes after the addition of nitric acid.

[0017] LST transformation is carried out by nitration with the addition of dilute nitric acid with a concentration of 30.0-5-55.0% into 15-5-20% aqueous solution of LST with constant mixing and maintaining temperatures in the range from +25.0 to +35.0°C, and salts of inorganic biogenic metals are added with constant mixing and maintaining the temperature in the range from +35.0 to +50.0°C, not earlier than 30 minutes after the addition of nitric acid. After dissolving of all components, the solution is gradually stabilized by adding Potassium hydroxide or Ammonium hydroxide until a pH of 3.0+3.5 is reached within 30 +minutes. After dissolving all the components, the solution is finally stabilized by adding potassium hydroxide or ammonium hydroxide for 60 minutes until a pH is reached of 4.5-5.5.

[0018] Inorganic salts of biogenic metals Copper, Zinc, Manganese, Iron, Calcium, Magnesium, Cobalt are added to their individual or total content in the chelated complex up to 16% in terms of a.d.m.

[0019] To increase biological activity when the pH reaches 5.0+5.5, salts of fulvohumic acids are added to the solution with constant stirring, with a content of up to 15% in terms of a.d.m. To increase biological activity when the pH reaches 5.05.5, the melamine salt of bis(oxymethyl) phosphic acid is added to the solution with constant stirring - until its content in the solution is from 10’6to 10'7%.

[0155] INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY

[0156] In the above examples, it is indicated that the process of step-by-step stabilization of the resulting solution leads to the fact that during storage for 3+4 years there is no precipitation, delamination, discoloration, gas formation was not observed.

[0157] The method reduces emissions of volatile nitrogen compounds by reducing the concentration of nitric acid and the volume of Ammonium hydroxide or completely replacing the latter with Potassium hydroxide, as well as reducing the nitration time, which is an important environmental aspect when implementing the technology on an industrial scale.

[0158] In the method according to Patent RU2660929, taken as a prototype, there are no stages of stabilization of the resulting nutrient mixture. The simultaneous addition of Ammonia water to pH 4+6 is not sufficient to obtain a fully homogeneous solution, which can lead to precipitation during storage, i.e. insufficient stability.

[0159] An important feature of the developed technology for the production of chelated complexes is the ability to create our own production of Complexones according to a single technological process, the ability to abandon expensive imported EDTA and Glycine complexons without loss of production capacity, since the concentration of chelated biogenic metals reaches 16% in terms of a.d.m.
