The invention discloses a synthetic method of a primary fat
amide and an
ammonia recovery and cycle device thereof. The steps of the synthetic method of the primary fat
amide are as follows: a
fatty acid and the
ammonia are taken as raw materials, and an
amination is carried out by the
catalysis of a catalyst at the
reaction temperature of 160 DEG C to 210 DEG C, the reaction pressure is 0.1 to 0.4 MPa, the
ammonia gas flow is 0.5 to 3.0m<3> / h and the reaction time is 8 hours to 26 hours; samples are taken out to analyze until the
acid value of the free
fatty acid is qualified (the
acid value is less than 1.0 mgKOH / g); and the catalyst is filtered and separated by a filter, so as to obtain the primary fat
amide. The ammonia
recovery and cycle device consists of an ammoniation reactor, an ammonia arrestor, a condenser, a separator, an ammonia compressor, a tank, a dryer, a buffer, a flow meter and the filter. The method and the device lead the consumption of the ammonia per
ton to be less than 110 kg, which is greatly lower than the ammonia consumption of the traditional technology (more than 1200 kilograms per
ton), and the consumption of the ammonia per
ton is close to the theoretical consumption, and a clean production can be realized. The synthetic method for the primary fat amide and the ammonia
recovery and cycle device thereof are suitable for
oleamide,
erucyl amide, stearic amide, behenamide, lauramide, palm acid amide, peanut acid amide and 12-hydroxy stearic amide.
