Description

A kind of production method of anhydrous citric acid crystal
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of production method of anhydrous citric acid crystal.
Background technology
The continuous production method of current industrial Citric Acid, usp, Anhydrous Powder comprises: first citric acid fermentation broth is obtained citric acid clear liquid through solid-liquid separation, then citric acid clear liquid is extracted through hydrogen calcium method or calcium salt method, acidolysis also decolouring obtains the citric acid solution of purification, again by concentrated for the citric acid solution heating of purifying, the above-mentioned citric acid solution concentrated is injected crystallizer continuously, citric acid concentrated solution is made to reach hypersaturated state by evaporation, solution nature graining, then the evaporation limit crystallization of citric acid solution limit is added on limit, when the gross weight that solids content (anhydrous citric acid crystal) reaches the mixture of citric acid solution and solid to a certain degree time, start the magma of continuous and quantitative discharge containing anhydrous citric acid crystal, and the continuous operation of keeping system.Again the magma of advantages of good crystallization is carried out centrifugation to obtain Citric Acid, usp, Anhydrous Powder and to wet crystal and crystalline mother solution, and wet crystal is dried obtain dry anhydrous citric acid crystal.
But adopt the shortcoming of aforesaid method to be: the Citric Acid, usp, Anhydrous Powder of the gained crystal entrainment mother liquor that wets is many, and the dry crystal mass obtained after oven dry is poor, readily carbonizable substance and moisture content higher.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to overcome prior art, to obtain the Citric Acid, usp, Anhydrous Powder crystal entrainment mother liquor that wets more, dry crystal mass is poor, readily carbonizable substance and the higher defect of moisture content, there is provided a kind of Citric Acid, usp, Anhydrous Powder obtained crystal entrainment mother liquor that wets few, dry crystal mass is good, the production method of readily carbonizable substance and the lower anhydrous citric acid crystal of moisture content.
The present inventor finds, the Citric Acid, usp, Anhydrous Powder that prior art the obtains crystal entrainment mother liquor that wets is more, dry crystal mass is poor, readily carbonizable substance and the higher reason of moisture content are: in the process of Citric Acid, usp, Anhydrous Powder evaporative crystallization, must constantly it just can be made to mix citric acid solution circulation, but the fast rotational of the recycle pump blade of crystal system (general rotating speed is 650-800rpm) can make the Citric Acid, usp, Anhydrous Powder of precipitation cannot by normal sequential aggradation to plane of crystal, thus cause plane of crystal to occur depression, depressed area can make mother liquor remain in a large number.Therefore, make crystal moisture content higher, easily lump; And the anhydrous citric acid crystal obtained not according to normal crystallization order of crystallization is second-rate, and readily carbonizable substance is higher.
The present inventor finds unexpectedly, by the magma obtained after citric acid solution condensing crystal with 1) the magma intensification 2-20 DEG C that will obtain after crystallization; 2) the magma cooling 1-10 DEG C will obtained after crystallization; 3) the magma intensification 2-20 DEG C first will obtained after crystallization, then any one method in magma cooling 2-25 DEG C after heating up is carried out repairing effectively can reduce the residual of mother liquor in crystal, make its moisture content obtain reduction; And the crystal arrangement finally obtained is comparatively regular, its quality is obtained and effectively improves, and reduce readily carbonizable substance.
Based on above discovery, the invention provides a kind of production method of anhydrous citric acid crystal, the method comprises, under the condition of circulation stirring, citric acid solution is carried out crystallization, obtains magma, wherein, the method also comprises the initial temperature of change magma to repair the crystal in magma, obtains the feed liquid containing anhydrous citric acid crystal; The method of described change magma initial temperature comprises:
