Abstract Levulinic acid, a carboxylic acid containing ketone structure, is a clear to brownish semi‐solid melting at 37°C; soluble in alcohol, ether, and chloroform, levulinic acid can be used as an acidulant in foods and beverages. Organic solutions of amines are being used increasingly to separate organic acids from aqueous mixture solutions by reactive extraction. The design of an amine extraction process requires kinetic data for the acid–amine+solvent system used. Kinetic studies for the extraction of levulinic acid from aqueous solution with tripropylamine (TPA) diluted in toluene were carried out using a stirred cell for kinetic studies. Equilibria for levulinic acid extraction by TPA in toluene as a diluent have been determined. All measurements were carried out at 298.15 K. The equilibrium data were also interpreted by a proposed mechanism of complexation by which (1∶1) and (2∶1) acid‐amine complexes are formed. Kinetics of extraction of levulinic acid by TPA in toluene has also been determined. The results of the liquid‐liquid equilibrium measurements were correlated by a linear solvation energy relationship (LSER). 相似文献
C9232 is a typical emulsifier of emulsion liquid membrane and its main component, bis-succinimide, has amine functional groups which react with carboxylic acids. The average numbers of secondary amine groups and isobutylene units in the bis-succinimide were determined through elemental analysis. Acetic acid was extracted by emulsion liquid membrane with use of C9232, and we verified that C9232 was suitable for its extractant in the emulsion liquid membrane systems. Equilibrium experiments for reactive extraction of acetic acid by C9232 were carried out by varying the overall acetic acid concentration and overall C9232 concentration in liquid-liquid extraction systems. Also, an equilibrium model for the reactive extraction of acetic acid was investigated for the purpose of analyzing the emulsion liquid membrane systems for separation of acetic acid from other carboxylic acids or sugars in the future. The calculated results from the equilibrium model were in good agreement with the experimental data. 相似文献
Lactic acid is an important commercial product and extracting this out of aqueous solution is a growing requirement in fermentation-based industries and recovery from waste streams. The design of an amine extraction process requires (i) equilibrium and (ii) kinetic data for the acid-amine (solvent) system used. Equilibria and kinetics for lactic acid extraction by Alamine 336 in octanol as a diluent have been determined and compared with other diluents studied earlier. An approach for extracting the lactic acid by a long-chain tertiary amine, which is in the dispersed phase as a liquid ion exchanger (LIX), is presented. A mathematical model for slurry phase reactor with glucose in the continuous aqueous phase, the amine with a diluent in the dispersed phase and the immobilized enzyme as the solid catalyst, has been developed using equilibrium and kinetic data for reactive extraction. Effects of various parameters affecting the conversion of glucose have been discussed. The model has been solved for batch and semi-batch modes. It has been shown that the semi-batch mode yields approximately five times higher productivity than batch mode. 相似文献
Polysulfone (PSU) was chemically modified to prepare new molecular imprinted membranes (MIMs). Several amounts of amine and sulfonyl groups were introduced into the PSU chemical structure in order to create interactions with acid or base templates, such as biomolecules or biomacromolecules. A fluorescent dye, Acridine Orange base (AO), was used as a model template and its complexation with the prepared PSUs was monitored by spectroscopic techniques. This study showed an absence of complexation with the native PSU and a strong complexation with the aminated and the sulfonated PSUs. Partially allylated PSU bearing amine or sulfonyl groups were also synthesized. These compounds are expected to be used as precursors for designing new crosslinked molecular imprinting membranes (MIMs), exhibiting high stability of the template memory. 相似文献
The kinetics of the transition metal-catalysed direct addition of amine NH bonds to carbon--carbon multiple bonds (hydroamination) has been explored by in situ spectroscopic techniques. From an open mass balance it was concluded that an intermediate species was formed during the cyclisation of 6-aminohex-1-yne. This species was identified as the enamine 2-methylene-piperidine, which is the primary hydroamination product. 相似文献
An efficient and mild trifluoromethanesulfonic acid‐catalyzed hydroamination of unfunctionalized alkenes to afford α‐tertiary amine derivatives at temperatures as low as room temperature is reported. 2,2,2‐Trifluoroethyl sulfamate was found to be the optimal nitrogen source because its good solubility in both organic solvents and water facilitated both conversion and purification. The reaction conditions were compatible with a variety of substrate functional groups and afforded moderate to good yields. The desired amine compounds could be obtained easily by means of a mild, one‐pot, redox‐neutral deprotection procedure. Caryolane amine was synthesized with excellent chemo‐ and regioselectivities by means of a cascade hydroamination reaction of β‐caryophyllene.
A mathematical model for the continuous packed bed reactive distillation process of esterification of acetic acid with methanol is developed. The kinetic rate equation, which plays a major role for the performance of reactive distillation and it is the part of model, is required for the liquid phase reversible esterification reaction. The mineral sulphuric acid is used as the catalyst. The kinetic experiments are carried out under different temperatures in the range of 305.15 to 333.15 K and catalyst concentrations in the range of 0.1267 mole H+/lit to 0.6537 mole H+/lit. From that experimental data the kinetic model is developed and the same is used for the simulation of reactive distillation process. Equilibrium stage model, in which the vapour and the liquid leaving a stage are assumed to be in equilibrium with each other, has been used for the simulation of reactive distillation process by incorporating our kinetic model. Conversion of acetic acid as function of reflux ratio and reboiler ratio has been predicted. The liquid composition and temperature profiles versus stage number have been also predicted. Finally, the optimum operating conditions obtained from the simulation results for high pure methyl acetate by reactive distillation process. 相似文献
Abstract Continuous and batch processes of polymer enhanced ultrafiltration for the estimation of binding constants of divalent cadmium, nickel, and zinc ions have been elaborated. Polyethyleneimine was used as a complexation agent. Effect of pH and ionic strength on the binding ability of target metal ions to polyethyleneimine were estimated by continuous mode PEUF system. A mathematical model was developed to estimate apparent complexation constants of metal ions with PEI. The development of this model, which is in good agreement with experimental data, enables to compare the data obtained in both continuous and batch system and correlate the effect of pH and ionic strength with apparent binding constants. 相似文献
Abstract Phase disengagement rate is a critical property in determining the usefulness of a particular solvent extraction system in hydro-metallurgy. A survey of a number of commercial tertiary amine extractants of the type used in uranium extraction hydrometallurgy has been carried out to suggest whether structural factors influence phase disengagement behavior and to provide a useful comparison of different amines with regard to phase disengagement and uranium extraction. The amines ((CnH2n+1)3N) were chosen to cover a range of alkyl chain lengths including straight-chain and branched-chain compositions, and the chemical makeup of the liquid-liquid systems closely paralleled that of the systems used in the Amex uranium extraction process. Batch phase disengagement tests showed significant trends with respect to amine structure and composition using acid sulfate solutions with or without added colloidal silica and actual ore leach solutions as the aqueous phase. In general, organic continuous (OC) phase disengagement became slower with increasing n (number of carbons per chain) whether branched or linear chain, but for any given n, the branched chain amines had much faster OC phase disengagement than the linear chain amines. A key structural factor affecting OC phase disengagement was found to be the backbone chain length (longest chain in each alkyl group) since the OC phase disengagement measurements could be correlated vs backbone chain length on a single curve regardless of whether the amine was branched or linear. Aqueous continuous (AC) phase disengagement rate was rapid for the acid sulfate solution but decreased greatly with decreasing for the acid sulfate solution but decreased greatly with decreasing n when colloidal silica was added or when leach solution was used. With both leach and colloidal silica solutions, AC phase disengagement was correlated with wetting behavior or the amine systems on a glass (silicate) surface. A model based on silica attachment to the liquid/liquid interface was suggested to explain the stabilization of AC dispersions by silica and the related problem of interfacial crud formation. In addition to faster AC phase disengagement and less emulsion (crud) stabilization, the larger molecular weight amines (n ≥ 10) were found to have higher uranium extraction coefficients and lower tendencies to form third phases. Presumably, solubility losses to the aqueous phase are also lower. The results suggest that the performance of some Amex systems may be improved by using branched chain tertiary amine extractants of higher molecular weight than are now normally used. 相似文献
Infrared spectroscope study on reactive extraction of Cephalosporin-C (CPC) and 6-Aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) with secondary and tertiary amines and a quaternary amine salt as the extractants in butyl acetate as the diluent has been reported. The study aims at analysing the chemical interaction involved in the complexation of the molecules with the extract-ant and the reaction stoichiometry. Amberlite LA-2, Trioctylamine and Aliquat-336 (Tricaprylyl methyl ammonium chloride) were used as the extractants. The results of experimental extraction equilibrium study and spectroscopic analysis indicate the formation of (1:1) complex vie ion-exchange reaction of CPC and 6-APA with Aliquat-336. The ion-pair extraction with Amberlite LA-2 and Trioctylamine exhibited non-stoichiometric complexation in accordance with experimental observation on equilibrium relationship 相似文献
