Computergestützter Entwurf von stark eutektischen Lösungsmitteln für Trennprozesse zur Separation von Naturstoffen aus flüssigen Gemischen
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
In order to design suitable DES-based extraction process for separating natural product, in this project, we first developed diverse approaches for predicting the formation of DESs, and then proposed a systematic screening methodology for identifying DESs or DES components from a large number of combinations or component candidates. The COSMO-RS model, two UNIFAC models, and a R-S theory-based QSAR model were evaluated for predicting the SLE of DES systems. A COSMO-RS descriptors’ based QSAR model was developed for estimating the melting point depression of ChCl-based DESs. By means of these four models, we could reasonably predict the SLE or at least Te of DES systems for given different HBA-HBD combinations. This helps a lot to estimate whether DES could form, and if so, whether the formed DES will satisfy given constraints regarding the desired operating temperature window. For α-tocopherol extraction when directly using DESs as extracting agents, a systematic DES screening framework was proposed by combining extraction performance evaluation (COSMO-RS), Environment-Health-Safety (EHS) criteria (by VEGA software), SLE and LLE calculations (COSMO-RS), experimental validation and process simulation (Aspen Plus). By using the special DES [P4,4,4,4][Cl]:MEA (at mass mixing ratio of 2:1) as extracting agent in a continuous separation process, 95.1% purity and 55.8% recovery ratio of α-tocopherol could be achieved, of hexane is applied for re-extraction. Furthermore, considering the weak HBD ability of α-tocopherol and linalool, a DES screening was done to select a suitable HBA component, forming a DES in-situ with the target molecules. From initially collected 80 HBA candidates, after the evaluation of their extraction potential and estimation of their DES formation ability, [P4,4,4,4][Cl] and [N4,4,4,4][Cl] were selected as the most promising HBA components for the extraction of α-tocopherol and linalool, respectively. The experimental evaluation and process optimization were performed for the case of linalool extraction, and a complete process flowsheet including the linalool/limonene separation and solvent recycling was developed to obtain 98.8% purity and 89.2% recovery ratio got linalool. To conclude, the proposed screening methodology developed for the selection of DES systems or DES components suitable for natural product extraction is a very versatile tool which can be applied to a broad spectrum of similar separation tasks.
