Description

Grease decoloring and plasticizer removing method
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for decoloring grease and removing a plasticizer.
Background
Adsorption decolorization can remove pigments in grease and other pollutants in the grease, but adsorption decolorization is often carried out at a higher temperature.
At present, the grease decolorization process is usually carried out at about 100 ℃, and the peroxide value in the grease is increased at high temperature to damage the quality of the grease, so that decolorization is carried out at low temperature to preserve the nutrients in the grease, and the aim of improving the quality and the shelf life of the grease is particularly important.
Phthalate is a kind of estrogen-like pollutant, and can interfere with human endocrine. Among the phthalates, dimethyl phthalate (DMP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) are the three most common and commonly used phthalate plasticizers.
Dimethyl phthalate, chemical formula C 10H10O4, molecular weight 194. Dimethyl phthalate is a colorless transparent yellowish oily liquid, and can be mixed with ethanol and diethyl ether organic solvents to be insoluble in water.
Dibutyl phthalate, having a chemical formula of C 16H22O4 and a molecular weight of 278. Dibutyl phthalate is a colorless oily liquid, has flammability, and has an aromatic odor. Can be mutually dissolved with organic solvents such as ethanol, diethyl ether, acetone, benzene and the like, and has a solubility of 0.04 percent (25 ℃) in water.
Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, having a formula of C 24H38O4, and a molecular weight of 390. Bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate is a colorless transparent liquid, has a special odor, is soluble in most organic solvents and hydrocarbons, and is slightly soluble in glycerol and ethylene glycol. The solubility in water is <0.1% (25 ℃).
All three plasticizers have good solubility in grease, and plastic containers used in grease transportation, plastic oil pipelines in grease production, soil in raw material planting places and the like can cause pollution of phthalate.
The phthalate esters can cause great harm to human body, and the maximum detected amounts of di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) required in foods and food additives are respectively 1.5mg/kg and 0.3mg/kg. The current reports on phthalate removal have focused on contaminant removal in environmental waters, with physical methods such as removal by adsorption (Journal of Hazardous Materials 273 (2014) 61-69); in addition to physical methods, chemical methods are commonly employed to remove plasticizers from ambient water (APPLIED CATALYSIS B: environmental 174-175 (2015) 277-292). The most effective way to remove the plasticizer from the grease is solvent extraction, which has high removal efficiency, but the solvent is too much used in the removal process, and the solvent used for extraction is volatile, and the process of multiple extractions is not suitable for large-scale industrial production, so that it is necessary to find a suitable substance to be used in the conventional grease refining process to remove the plasticizer from the grease.

The invention discovers that the adsorption material with specific groups can not only decolorize the grease at low temperature, but also remove the plasticizer in the grease; the shelf life of the grease is improved while the quality of the grease is maintained; in addition, the decoloring technology at normal temperature can also reduce the energy consumption in the grease production process.
The adsorption material used in the invention is polyethylene glycol alkyl phenyl ether. Preferably, in the polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ether of the present invention, the degree of polymerization of the polyethylene glycol segment is between 10 and 20. Preferably, the alkyl groups in the polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ethers of the invention are branched or straight chain C 6-20 alkyl groups including, but not limited to, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, such as 1, 3-tetramethylbutyl, and the like, with straight or branched chain C 6-12 alkyl groups being preferred. In the polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ether of the present invention, the polyethylene glycol segment and the alkyl segment may be in ortho, meta and para positions of the benzene ring, preferably in para positions. In a preferred embodiment, the polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ether used in the present invention is polyethylene glycol octylphenyl ether. The invention may be practiced using commercially available polyethylene glycol octylphenyl ether, such as Triton X-100 and/or Triton X-114.
The method of the present invention comprises the step of contacting polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ether with grease. In the present invention, the grease may be various types of grease known in the art, particularly edible oil, including animal grease and vegetable grease. Exemplary vegetable fats include, but are not limited to, any mixture of one or more of rice oil, sunflower seed oil, palm kernel oil, peanut oil, canola oil (also known as rapeseed oil), cottonseed oil, safflower seed oil, perilla seed oil, tea seed oil, palm fruit oil, coconut oil, olive oil, cocoa butter, tallow seed oil, almond oil, tung seed oil, rubber seed oil, rice bran oil, corn germ oil, wheat germ oil, sesame seed oil, castor seed oil, linseed oil, evening primrose seed oil, hazelnut oil, walnut oil, grape seed oil, linseed oil, glass chicory seed oil, sea buckthorn seed oil, tomato seed oil, pumpkin seed oil, macadamia nut oil, cocoa butter, algae oil, and the like. Exemplary animal fats and oils may be any mixture of one or more of beef tallow, lard, mutton tallow, chicken fat, fish oil, seal oil, whale oil, dolphin oil, oyster oil, etc. The grease may be a variety of grease that requires decolorization and/or removal of plasticizers. The grease may be crude oil or grease subjected to one or more of the conventional grease refining processes, for example, degummed, decolorized or deodorized oil. In some embodiments, the grease may be refined oil, i.e., finished oil.
In the process of the invention, the polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ether is used in an amount of more than 10% by weight of the oil, for example at least 20%, or at least 1 times the weight of the oil. The present invention has found that when the grease is treated with polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ether at 1 or more times the weight of the oil, the plasticizer in the grease can be removed by 40% or more even at room temperature.
In the process of the present invention, the temperature of the system comprising polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ether and grease during contact is typically in the range of room temperature to 200 ℃. Room temperature is generally referred to herein as the room temperature above 20 ℃, such as 20-35 ℃. In some embodiments, the system temperature is preferably 25-170 ℃, more preferably 25-135 ℃. Different contact temperatures may be chosen for different purposes. For example, in some embodiments, for decolorizing purposes, the contacting is performed at a temperature of 20-50 ℃ under which a portion of the plasticizer may also be removed; in other embodiments, to achieve substantial or even complete removal of the plasticizer, higher system temperatures may be controlled, e.g., the system temperature may be 120-170 ℃, at which point dimethyl phthalate (DMP) may be substantially removed.
Accordingly, in some embodiments, the present invention provides a method of decolorizing grease comprising the step of contacting the grease to be decolorized with a polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ether as described herein at room temperature. In other embodiments, the present invention provides a method for removing plasticizers from fats & oils comprising the step of contacting the fats & oils with a polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ether described herein at a temperature of 20 to 200 ℃. In still other embodiments, the present invention provides a method for decolorizing grease and removing plasticizers comprising the step of contacting the grease to be decolorized with a polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ether as described herein at 20 to 50 ℃.
The contacting may be accomplished by stirring. The rotational speed of the stirring may be in the range of 50-5000 rpm. The contact time is at least 30 minutes. The proper rotating speed and contact time can be adjusted according to the different dosage of the polyethylene glycol alkyl phenyl ether so as to obtain the best decoloring and/or plasticizer removing effect. As demonstrated by the examples herein, polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ethers substantially achieved maximum adsorption after a contact time of up to 4 hours. Thus, the contact time can be controlled in the range of 30 minutes to 4 hours from the time cost point of view.
After the contact is finished, the adsorbent and impurities such as plasticizer and pigment adsorbed by the adsorbent can be removed by centrifugal separation, and the grease is obtained. The above-described contacting and separating steps may be performed one or more times until the desired effect is obtained. In a preferred embodiment, the contacting step is performed following a small number of passes.
In some embodiments, the present invention provides a fat refining process comprising a fat decolorization step as described herein and one or more steps selected from the group consisting of degumming, physical deacidification, alkali refining, water washing, drying, conventional decolorization, dewaxing, and deodorization. It will be appreciated that one or more of the degumming, deacidification, dewaxing and deodorization steps may be omitted depending on the actual production situation and purpose of production. The process conditions of degumming, physical deacidification, alkali refining, washing, drying, conventional decoloring, dewaxing and deodorizing can be conventional process conditions in the field and can be adjusted according to actual production conditions.
Exemplary degumming includes degumming the crude oil by adding a degumming medium after filtering the crude oil to remove solid impurities. The degumming medium may be a degumming medium conventional in the art, such as citric acid solution, phosphoric acid solution, and degumming enzyme. When degumming enzyme (such as PLA1 phospholipase) is used, the reaction system is generally at 45-80 ℃, the pH is 5-6, and the time is 2-6h. The degumming medium is not less than 0.05wt% of the weight of the crude oil, typically not more than 2wt% of the weight of the crude oil. When an acid is used, the concentration of the acid is not less than 5% by weight, usually not more than 80% by weight, for example, may be in the range of 5 to 65% by weight, 10 to 60% by weight, 20 to 50% by weight, based on the total weight of the solution. Water can be added at the same time, and the water content is usually not less than 0.5wt% of the weight of the crude oil; typically the amount of water used in the single degumming step, excluding water in the degumming medium, is not higher than 30wt% of the oil weight, e.g. in the range of 0.5 to 20wt%, 0.5 to 10wt%, 5 to 25 wt%. And separating colloid after the reaction is finished to obtain the degummed oil.
The degumming can be carried out after the deacidification, and the main purpose is to remove free fatty acid in crude oil and remove partial pigment, phospholipid, hydrocarbon, mucilage and other impurities. The deacidification may be performed using a physical deacidification method. For example, the degummed oil can be treated at a pressure of 0.02-0.6kPa and a temperature of 180-250 ℃ to provide a deacidified oil. Alternatively, the acid may be removed by alkali refining. For example, an appropriate amount of alkali solution is added to the degummed oil at 80-90 ℃ for reaction for 10-60 minutes. Typically, the amount of added base = 7.13 x 10 -4×M Oil (oil) x AV x (1+ amount of super base), which may be 0-20%, the amount of base = amount of added base/concentration of base, where M Oil (oil) refers to oil weight and AV refers to acid number. And centrifuging after the reaction is finished to obtain the neutralized oil.
The deacidified oil may be subjected to dewaxing. If the deacidification is performed by alkali refining, the deacidified oil (neutralized oil) may be dried in water before dewaxing the grease to perform the soap removal, thereby obtaining the soap-removed oil. For example, the neutralized oil may be heated to 80-90deg.C, washed with hot water having an oil weight of less than 5% (e.g., 1-3%) and centrifuged, and then vacuum dried at 90-120deg.C to obtain the soap-free oil.
An exemplary dewaxing process includes pumping deacidified oil or soap-free oil into a crystallization tank, controlling the temperature to 50-60 ℃, standing for 10-60min, and then starting cooling crystallization. Can be reduced to 2-6 ℃ within 10-60 hours, then the crystal is grown for 6-10 hours at the temperature, and the filtration is carried out after the crystal growth is finished.
In the present invention, the conventional decoloring method includes a step of decoloring under conventional decoloring conditions using a conventional decoloring agent. Conventional decolorizing agents include, but are not limited to, bleaching earth, activated clay, activated carbon, zeolite, attapulgite, diatomaceous earth, silica gel, and the like, as are well known in the art. . The decolorization temperature can be 100-120deg.C, preferably 105-115 deg.C; the addition amount of the decoloring agent can be 0.5% -5% of the mass of the grease, and is preferably 1% -5%. The vacuum degree for decoloring may be 20 to 100mbar, preferably 30 to 50mbar. The decolorizing time can be 20-120min, preferably 30-120min.
Exemplary deodorization methods are conventional in the art and specific procedures are well known to those skilled in the art, and may be, for example, but not limited to, the methods described in beret al, chemistry and technology (volume six), and the like. In one embodiment of the invention, the deodorization is: introducing nitrogen or steam (preferably high-temperature steam) as deodorizing medium, vacuum degree not higher than 25mBar, and deodorizing at 235-260deg.C for 40-90 min.
The invention also provides the use of the polyethylene glycol alkylphenyl ethers described herein in grease decolorization and/or plasticizer removal, or in the preparation of a reagent for grease decolorization and/or plasticizer removal.
Compared with the prior art, the invention can decolorize at normal temperature, can reduce the energy consumption of factories, retain beneficial components in the grease, prolong the shelf life of the grease, simultaneously remove the plasticizer in the grease, simplify the production process flow and finally improve the quality of the grease.
The invention will be illustrated by way of specific examples. It should be understood that these examples are illustrative only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The raw materials adopt a mode of reversely adding DMP, DBP and DEHP, and the adding amount of the DMP and the DBP is about 10 ppm. In addition to the reverse-added finished oil, the oils used in the present invention also include oils obtained on the factory line with a plasticizer content exceeding that of the standard (DEHP content of 5-10 ppm). Detecting the contents of DMP, DBP and DEHP in the raw materials after the reverse addition, wherein the detection method is as follows: (GB 5009.271-2016). The color measurement refers to a method for measuring the color of GB/T22460-2008 Luowei.
