After the pH value is raised, the reducing sugar in the sucrose raw material is increased, the color of the discharged material is deepened when the subsequent working procedure is evaporated and concentrated, and the purity of the sucrose is reduced.

Example 1
The sucrose decalcification method is described in connection with the sucrose decalcification system as follows:
as shown in fig. 1:
the sucrose decalcification system comprises multiple Na-type cation exchange resin columns, wherein the volume of each column is 1-3m 3 The plurality of ion exchange resin columns are divided into a production zone, a scrubbing backwash zone, a regeneration zone and a leaching zone, and the production process, the scrubbing process, the backwash process, the regeneration process and the leaching process are respectively executed, wherein:
production zone 101: the method comprises a plurality of ion exchange resin columns which are arranged in parallel, wherein the sucrose raw material is subjected to ion exchange through resin layers of the plurality of ion exchange resin columns which are connected in parallel to decalcify the sucrose raw material to obtain clean sucrose, and the upper opening of the ion exchange resin columns is communicated with a feed pipe 4, a decalcification feed pump I2 and a decalcification feed pump II 3, and the two pumps are used in one. The decalcification feed pump conveys the materials in the decalcification feed tank 1 to an ion exchange resin column, and the lower port of the ion exchange resin column is connected and communicated with a discharge pipe 5 and a decalcification discharge tank 6. A reflux pipeline 7 is arranged between the discharging pipe 5 and the decalcification feeding tank 1, the reason for designing the pipeline is that the pipeline is used for refluxing materials when the discharging is unqualified, and the other reason is that the materials temporarily reflux to the decalcification feeding tank when the liquid level of the decalcification discharging tank 6 is higher and the liquid level of the decalcification feeding tank 1 is lower, so that the pressure of the decalcification discharging tank 6 is relieved. The decalcification discharge tank 6 is conveyed to the evaporation section by a decalcification discharge pump I8 and a decalcification discharge pump II 9. The production area 101 of this embodiment is provided with 8 ion exchange resin columns (No. N1-N8 ion exchange resin columns), but 8 ion exchange resin columns are not fixed, and the number of ion exchange resin columns can be increased or decreased according to the yield in actual industrial production.
Scrubbing backwash zone 102: comprises a failed ion exchange resin column switched from a production area, in the embodiment, a scrubbing and backwashing area 102 is provided with 1 ion exchange resin column (No. N14 ion exchange resin column), the lower opening of the ion exchange resin column is connected and communicated with a compressed air pipeline 10 and a water inlet pipeline 12, the upper opening of the ion exchange resin column is connected and communicated with a sweet water tank 11 and a backwashing discharge buffer tank 13 in a process workshop, and automatic switch valves are arranged on the corresponding pipelines. The scrubbing process and the backwashing process are sequentially performed.
Firstly, an automatic switching valve on the compressed air pipeline 10 (the automatic switching valve on the water inlet pipeline 12 is closed) is opened, clean air is introduced to loosen the resin in the ion exchange resin column, and at the moment, the automatic switching valve on the pipeline between the upper port and the sweet water tank 11 is opened. The spent ion exchange resin column is a resin column that has been saturated with calcium ion adsorption, the resin having substantially no exchange capacity. The method of the traditional process does not have the area, and the sucrose in the ion exchange column is cleaned to have no brix by pure water after production, so that a large amount of clean water can be wasted in the process, and the backwashing efficiency of the resin is improved after the resin is loosened by arranging a scrubbing procedure, so that the regeneration utilization rate and the regeneration effect are indirectly improved, and the phenomena of resin crushing and caking caused by long-time extrusion of the resin are avoided.
After the scrubbing process is finished, the automatic switching valve on the compressed air pipeline 10 is closed, the automatic switching valve on the pipeline between the upper port and the sweet water tank 11 is closed, the automatic switching valve on the water inlet pipeline 12 is opened, and the automatic switching valve on the pipeline with the upper port connected with the backwashing discharge buffer tank 13 is opened to perform the backwashing process. The back washing process is to wash the sucrose in the ion exchange column with pure water to no hammer degree, the back washing process is to feed pure water into the lower port of the ion exchange column and discharge the material from the upper port, and the water feeding washing method can play the roles of loosening the resin and thoroughly washing the residual impurities in the sucrose material. Meanwhile, the water consumption in the area is greatly reduced, and the water consumption can be thoroughly cleaned within 1-1.5 BV.
Regeneration zone 103: comprises an ion exchange resin column switched from a scrubbing and backwashing zone, wherein the resin in the ion exchange resin column is regenerated by using the liquid neutralized by the acid from the decoloration resin regeneration waste liquid. The regeneration zone 103 is provided with 3 ion exchange columns for serial regeneration (No. N11-N13 ion exchange resin columns), the upper port of the first ion exchange resin column is connected and communicated with the neutralized waste brine tank in the nanofiltration concentration process through a waste brine pipeline 16, the lower port of the first ion exchange resin column is connected to the upper port of the second ion exchange resin column in series through a pipeline, the lower port of the second ion exchange resin column is connected to the upper port of the third ion exchange resin column in series through a pipeline, the lower port of the third ion exchange resin column is discharged, the lower port of the third ion exchange resin column is connected with a calcium solution buffer tank 14, at the moment, the material in the calcium solution buffer tank 14 is a solution rich in calcium elements, and the solution can be conveyed to a saturated front tank in the sucrose production process by a calcium solution discharge pump 15 for continuous recycling. The series regeneration is an optimal series regeneration mode by multiple experiments and calculation of 3 ion exchange columns, the quantity of the ion exchange resin columns is reduced to cause incomplete regeneration, or the quantity of the regenerant is large, the addition of the ion exchange resin columns increases the investment of earlier equipment to cause the increase of the budget of a new production workshop, the quantity of the regenerant of the 3 ion exchange columns is also stably controlled to be 1-2BV which is less than 4-6BV in the prior art, and the regeneration waste liquid of the decoloring procedure in mass production is lower than 4BV.
Leaching zone 104: comprises an ion exchange resin column switched from a regeneration zone, and pure water is used for leaching the resin in the ion exchange resin column. The cleaning at this time is mainly to clean the regenerant. The leaching zone 104 is provided with 2 ion exchange resin columns (ion exchange resin columns N9-N10) which are connected in series, wherein the upper port of the first ion exchange resin column is connected and communicated with the water inlet pipeline 12, the lower port of the first ion exchange resin column is connected in series to the upper port of the second ion exchange resin column through a pipeline, and the lower port of the second ion exchange resin column is connected in series to a waste brine pipeline connected with the upper port of the first ion exchange resin column of the regeneration zone 104 through a pipeline. Because the regeneration agent which is not thoroughly utilized is also arranged in the column, the outlet pipeline of the leaching zone is connected with the inlet pipeline of the regeneration zone, and the leaching solution is used in the regeneration zone, so that the leaching solution can be fully utilized, the consumption of water and the regeneration agent is saved, the number of ion exchange resin columns is reduced, and the investment cost of the prior equipment is reduced.
The leaching area 104 is connected in series with the regeneration area 103 in this embodiment for further resource saving, but the leaching area 104 may not be connected in series with the regeneration area 103, and the effluent of the leaching area has a small influence on the pH value of the regenerant, so that the pH value of the regenerant cannot exceed 5.5-7.5.
The sucrose decalcification system is continuously produced, ion exchange resin columns in the production area are switched out after being saturated, enter the scrubbing and backwashing area, are switched into the regeneration area and the leaching area after being cleaned, and the ion exchange resin columns in each working area are always kept unchanged in quantity through sequential switching, so that the sucrose decalcification can be continuously carried out.
Example 2
Comparative test
(1) The sucrose decalcification system of example 1 was used to perform the sucrose decalcification treatment, the on-off valve on the waste brine pipe 16 was opened, the regenerant was a waste brine raw material (a liquid obtained by neutralizing the decolored resin regeneration waste liquid) in the nanofiltration concentration process, and the pH of the regenerant was 5.5 to 7.5, and the material index parameters were as follows:
ca feed 2+ Content (ppm) Discharging Ca 2+ Content (ppm) Discharge pH Discharged reducing sugar content (%) Post-evaporation color value (IU)
270-430 0 7.5-7.8 0.01-0.05 5-10
The regenerant is the decolored regenerated waste liquid after neutralization, the discharge indexes are all in a normal range, and the color value of the finished sucrose obtained after the discharge is subjected to the evaporation process is lower.
(2) The sucrose decalcification system of example 1 was used for the sucrose decalcification treatment, the switch valve on the waste brine pipe 16 was opened, but the switch valve on the hydrochloric acid pipe before the neutralization of the waste brine tank was closed, and the decolorized resin regeneration waste liquid (which was not subjected to neutralization treatment and was alkaline) was used as a resin regenerant, the pH of the regenerant was 8 to 9, and the material index parameters were as follows:
ca feed 2+ Content (ppm) Discharging Ca 2+ Content (ppm) Discharge pH Discharged reducing sugar content (%) Post-evaporation color value (IU)
270-430 0 8.5-9.0 0. 1-0.2 60-100
After the resin is regenerated by the alkaline waste brine in the decoloring process of the regenerant, the discharged calcium ions can be reduced to the minimum, but the pH value of the discharged material is increased beyond the normal range of 7.5-8.0, the reducing sugar in the sucrose is increased after the pH value is increased, the quality of the sucrose is reduced, the color value of the finished sucrose after the discharged material is subjected to the evaporating process is also increased, and the normal color value range is less than 10.
(3) The sucrose decalcification system of example 1 was used for the sucrose decalcification treatment, but the on-off valve on the waste brine pipe 16 was closed, and saline-alkali water added with pigment was used as the resin regenerant (the regenerant at this time was artificially prepared saline-alkali water, naCl content was 9%, naOH content was 0.25%, and the composition of the decolorized resin regeneration waste liquid of comparative experiment (2) was substantially the same), the regenerant had a pH value of 8-9, and the material index parameters were as follows:
ca feed 2+ Content (ppm) Discharging Ca 2+ Content (ppm) Discharge pH Discharged reducing sugar content (%) Post-evaporation color value (IU)
270-430 0 8.5-9.0 0.1-0.2 60-100
After the regenerant regenerates the resin by using the saline-alkali water added with pigment, the discharged calcium ions can be reduced to the minimum, but the pH value of the discharged material is increased to 7.5-8.0 beyond the normal range, reducing sugar in sucrose is increased after the pH value is increased, the quality of the sucrose is reduced, the color value of the finished sucrose after the discharged material is subjected to an evaporation process is also increased, and the normal color value range is less than 10.
(4) The sucrose decalcification system of example 1 was used for the sucrose decalcification treatment, but the switch valve on the waste brine pipe 16 was closed, and brine was used as a regenerant for the resin (the brine was prepared in the same manner as in comparative test (3), no pigment was added), the pH of the regenerant was 8-9, and the material index parameters were as follows:
ca feed 2+ Content (ppm) Discharging Ca 2+ Content (ppm) Discharge pH Discharged reducing sugar content (%) Post-evaporation color value (IU)
270-430 30-70 8.5-9.0 0.1-0.2 60-100
The regenerant adopts saline-alkali water to regenerate the saturated calcium-rich resin, after repeated feeding, reducing sugar is increased, the color value of the finished product after evaporation and concentration is increased, and meanwhile, the content of calcium ions is also increased, which indicates that the pigment is also beneficial to resin regeneration because of electrostatic attraction of anions and calcium ions in the pigment and desorption of calcium.
The comparative tests (1) and (2) show the influence of the pH change of the regenerant on the content and the color value of discharged reducing sugar, and the reduction of the pH of the regenerant can obviously improve the quality of the finished sucrose product, reduce the reducing sugar and reduce the color value.
