Abstract

The invention comprises a process for the recovery of ascorbic acid from a solution containing mixed components by subjecting a solution to a treatment which includes ionic separation by contact with ion-exchange resin or resins whereby a second solution which contains the bulk of the ascorbic acid and is substantially free from un-ionized components, is separated from the original solution, oxidizing the second solution to convert the ascorbic acid into dehydro-ascorbic acid while leaving other ions substantially unaffected, subjecting the oxidized solution to ionic separation by contact with ion-exchange resin or resins whereby a solution containing substantially only neutral dehydro-ascorbic acid is separated from a solution containing substantially only other ionized components, and reducing the dehydroascorbic acid solution thereby reconverting it to ascorbic acid solution. The first ionic separation may be effected by contacting the original solution first with a strongly acidic cation-exchange resin and then with a weakly basic anion-exchange resin, eluting the anionexchange resin with a strong acid to form the second solution. Alternatively the ionicexchange steps may be effected in multichamber ion-exchange membrane cells which comprise alternating cationic membranes and non-selective membranes or alternating cationic and anionic membranes having an electrode at each end of the cell. Prior to the first ionic separation the solution may be subjected to a preliminary treatment which consists in adjusting the pH to about 4 and an ionic separation to remove a substantial proportion of the ionized compounds. Oxidation may be effected either at the anode of an electrolytic cell or by contacting with an appropriate quantity of chlorine or sodium hypochlorite. Reduction of the dehydro-ascorbic acid may be effected by means of hydrogen sulphide or by catalytic hydrogenation.
