An apparatus for producing lactic acid according to the invention comprises a reactor carrying out: subjecting glycerin to a hydrothermal reaction under an alkaline condition, supplying an alkaline solution comprising glycerin; and continuously producing lactic acid, wherein glycerin is subjected to a hydrothermal reaction under an alkaline condition at a temperature in the range of 150 to 400° C. and under pressure equal to or more than the saturated vapor pressure at the temperature. The glycerin produced from plant fats, animal fats or the like or pure product synthesized chemically or a discharge containing glycerin generated at the production of diesel fuel oil from fats, in which the fats are subjected to a transesterification with alcohol in the presence of an alkali catalyst in order to obtain fatty acid ester is preferably used as a starting material.

Disclosed is a process for production of silicon tetrafluoride which can reduce the cost for the silicon tetrafluoride production and can also reduce the quantities of waste products produced in the process. Also disclosed is an apparatus for use for the process. The method comprises the steps of: (a) a high-silica fluorosilicic acid production step in which a raw material (1) containing silicon dioxide is reacted with a mixed solution containing hydrofluoric acid and hydrofluorosilicic acid to yield an aqueous high-silica fluorosilicic acid solution: (c) a silicon tetrafluoride production step in which the aqueous high-silica fluorosilicic acid solution is reacted with sulfuric acid to yield silicon tetrafluoride; and (d) a sulfuric acid production step in which a sulfuric acid fraction containing hydrogen fluoride which is a by-product in the silicon tetrafluoride production step (c) is subjected to steam stripping to yield sulfuric acid. The process is characterized in that the sulfuric acid produced in the step (d) is reused in the step (c).
摘要:
This invention relates to equipment for treating the aforesaid waste plastics directly with supercritical water, and an object thereof is to provide a method for the anticorrosive treatment of waste plastics treating equipment which makes it possible to use inexpensive stainless steel. Waste plastics treating equipment made of stainless steel is charged with a predetermined amount of an aqueous solution containing at least one alkali metal salt, and this aqueous solution is deaerated until its dissolved oxygen content is reduced to 0.5 mg/L or less. After the temperature and pressure of the equipment are raised until supercritical conditions are established, these temperature and pressure are maintained for a predetermined period of time.

A safe and efficient hydrothermal reaction apparatus for converting waste plastic into oil is described herein. The apparatus comprises a receiver tank for containing therein a mixture of plastic and water; a high-pressure injection pump in communication with the receiver tank through a flow passage change-over valve, the flow passage change-over valve being in communication with a water injection passage; a reactor device including a curved piping in communication with the injection pump, the curved piping being provided with a heating means; and an effluent tank in communication with the reactor device through a pressure reducing valve. The flow rate of the mixture injected into the reaction device may be controlled by regulating the pressure reducing valve. Thermal decomposition of the mixture is performed in the reactor device under pressure and temperature conditions equal to, or above, a value by which a supercritical condition of water is achieved, and under the turbulent flow conditions generated partly by the curved piping.

A belt-like package train having at least a surface layer made of a plastic includes a plurality of packages connected in series in one direction, each package being charged with a dioxidizing agent such as a metal powder, e.g., iron powder. The package train is coiled on a core made of a thick paper material having a small air-permeability. The coiled package train is disposed on the inlet side of an automatic severing apparatus and is successively fed into the apparatus so that the packages are successively severed from the outermost layer and then from the inner layers of the coiled package train.
摘要:
To provide a method capable of producing stereocomplex polylactic acid, the method being capable of using carbon neutral materials that are not competitive from foods, such as saccharides, without the use of a method for designing optical resolution, which requires complicated operations and high cost and is difficult to perform mass production. The production method of the present invention comprises: a step of reacting glycerin with sodium hydroxide in high-temperature and high-pressure water to produce a racemic sodium lactate aqueous solution; a step of separating sodium from the racemic sodium lactate aqueous solution to recover racemic lactic acid; a step of dimerizing the racemic lactic acid to produce a lactide mixture containing meso lactide and racemic lactide; a step of separating meso lactide from the mixture to recover racemic lactide; and a step of polymerizing the racemic lactide with a salen-metal complex as a catalyst to produce stereocomplex polylactic acid.
摘要:
A container sealing member for a container used for preserving an aqueous liquid or semi-liquid material is disclosed. Said sealing member is characterized in that some of the space inside the sealing member is filled with an oxygen absorbent and the absorbent is separated from the contents of the container by a film which adheres to the sealing member so as to prevent the oxygen absorbent from contacting the contents of the container, the film having a plurality of fine openings and being gas-permeable but water-impermeable at one atmospheric pressure.
