Description

Deep purification method of high-purity glycerol
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of separation and purification, in particular to a deep purification method of high-purity glycerol.
Background
Glycerol, also known as glycerol, is derived from a byproduct of oil hydrolysis, is non-toxic, colorless, non-irritating, and chemically stable, and can be used as a synthetic raw material or directly in industry, medicine and daily life due to its special physical properties and chemical structure (see fig. 5), thus having wide application. Glycerol has about 2000 applications, and is mainly applied to medicines, foods, cosmetics, alkyd resins, ester products, tobacco, explosives, cellophane, textile printing and dyeing industry, paper industry, rubber industry and the like.
In the prior art, the purification of crude glycerol is mostly carried out by adopting modes such as reduced pressure distillation, activated carbon adsorption, ion exchange and the like. Although the glycerin purified by adopting the prior art can meet the glycerin quality specified by the state, due to the limitations of the process (the long-time temperature is overhigh, the separation effect of the traditional process is limited, and the like), a trace amount of by-products are inevitably generated in the purification process, and the application of the actual high-end product cannot be met. Such as: in the practical application process, especially when the glycerin is used as a medical auxiliary material, trace impurities such as residual fatty acid, aldehyde, polymer and the like in the glycerin (the total content of GC impurity peaks is between 0.06 and 0.2 percent, aldehyde and reducing substances are between 5ppm and 10ppm, and fatty acid and ester are between 0.4 and 2.0 ml) easily influence the key quality index and stability of a downstream preparation. At present, no report related to the removal of trace impurities such as fatty acid, aldehyde and polymer in glycerol is found.
The high-speed counter-current chromatographic technique is a new chromatographic separation and purification technique based on liquid-liquid distribution mechanism developed in the 80 th century, and its principle is that it utilizes multidimensional centrifugal field produced by helical column when it is moved in planet to make two phases which are not mutually soluble continuously mix, at the same time one phase (stationary phase) is retained, and utilizes constant flow pump to continuously input another phase (mobile phase), and the solute which is fed into helical column along with mobile phase is repeatedly distributed between two phases, and according to the order of distribution coefficient, it is successively eluted. The elution is carried out firstly when the proportion of the mobile phase is large, and the elution is carried out after the proportion of the mobile phase is large, so that the separation is realized. At present, although the technology is applied in some fields, the technology is still blank in the separation and purification of impurities such as fatty acid, aldehyde, polyglycerol and the like in the glycerol, so the exploration of raw materials, solvent systems and separation and purification conditions under the system is very important for the industrial development of the high-purity glycerol.
