DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an improvement in a method for distilling and purifying sorbic acid by dissolving crude sorbic acid in petroleum and flash-evaporating it under reduced pressure. There are hydrochloric acid decomposition methods, alkaline decomposition methods, thermal decomposition methods, etc. to synthesize sorbic acid by decomposing polyester obtained by the reaction of crotonaldehyde and ketene. It is known that it is the most advantageous in terms of yield and quality in terms of decomposition results without any production. However, in any case, there is a problem in that a special purification step is required because tar by-produced during the reaction exists as an impurity together with the polyester residue. Furthermore, even with the comparatively superior hydrochloric acid decomposition method, this problem remains, and the crude sorbic acid obtained by cooling and cooling the polyester after decomposing it contains tar. At this time, it is also necessary to perform dehydrochlorination. One of the methods for purifying sorbic acid is a distillation purification method, but sorbic acid is unstable to heat due to its structure and immediately begins to polymerize in a molten state, and the more impure the more rapid it becomes. Therefore, it is almost impossible industrially to purify sorbic acid alone by distillation. However, although co-distillation has been proposed that improves this and is superior to other methods (German Patent No. 1044803, Japanese Patent Publication No. 44-4091, etc.), it is not necessarily satisfactory from the viewpoint of converting sorbic acid into a resin. isn't it. The hydrochloric acid contained in the crude sorbic acid that has undergone the hydrochloric acid decomposition step is distilled off together with the sorbic acid in the distillation purification step, and is contained in the purified sorbic acid crystals. The inventors of the present invention have conducted extensive studies regarding co-distillation, taking into account the shortcomings of conventional methods, and have found that by adopting a simpler treatment method compared to the conventional method, improvements can be made in terms of equipment and yield. We succeeded in obtaining economically advantageous sorbic acid of good quality (particularly low hydrochloric acid content). That is, the present invention provides a method for purifying sorbic acid in which a polyester obtained by the reaction of crotonaldehyde and ketene is decomposed with hydrochloric acid and crude sorbic acid separated from the reaction solution is purified. Continuously dissolve in petroleum at ~140°C and evaporate residual water in the petroleum solution (b) Then, the petroleum solution is dissolved under reduced pressure (pressure range 20 to 60 mmHg) using a thin film evaporator equipped with a separation column. )
Continuous flash evaporation is performed, while the evaporation residue containing tar is removed from the bottom of the evaporator. A method for producing sorbic acid characterized by blowing an inert gas into the sorbic acid. It is. Incidentally, the basis of the technical idea of the present invention lies in the elucidation of the origin of chlorine content and its behavior. That is, the present inventors throughout the manufacturing process,
While considering these issues, although it is not theoretically sufficient,...
