活性炭对谷氨酸转晶的影响及机理阐述

摘要

文中重点研究了活性炭对谷氨酸在等电点转晶的影响及其机理.结果表明,供试的7种活性炭均能有效缩短转晶时间,以木制活性炭ZK-200型号最佳,在添加量为1.2％时,转晶时间从31 min缩短为19 min,转晶后谷氨酸的色价仅为0.003,透光率达83.9％,脱色率高达94.6％.进一步研究了代表性杂质丙氨酸在转晶过程中对β型晶核的成核速率及转晶时间的影响规律,阐明了添加活性炭加快转晶速率的机理.添加活性炭实现等电点原位转晶,不仅避免了Na+的引入,还有利于改善转晶后谷氨酸晶体质量.%The polymorphic transformation is an effective method to enhance the quality of glutamic acid crystal.In this study,the effect of activated carbon on the polymorphs transition of glutamic acid at the isoelectric point and its mechanism were investigated.The results showed that the wooden activated carbon ZK-200 is the most effective in shorting the time of the polymorphic transformation among all seven kinds of activated carbon experiment tested.With 1.2％ activated carbon adding into the slurry at the isoelectric point,the time of polymorphic transformation was shortened to 19 min from 31 min,and the color value,transmittance and decolourization ratio were reached 0.003,83.9％ and 94.6％,respectively.To reveal the mechanism of adding activated carbon on acceleration the rate of polymorphic transformation,alanine,on the behalf of impurities,was used to investigate the effect of impurity on the nucleation rate of 3-nuclei and growth in the polymorphic transformation process.This novel strategy could carry out in situ polymorphic transformation at the isoelectric point,which could not only avoid the introduction of alkali solution,but also improve the crystal quality of glutamic acid.
