    摘要: The present invention discloses a method for producing a long chain dicarboxylic acid by fermentation as well as a fermentation broth, a treated fermentation broth and a wastewater. The salt content in the fermentation broth is controlled to be below 20% by the fermentation method of the present invention. The method for producing a long chain dicarboxylic acid by fermentation provided by the present invention can effectively reduce the amount of alkali used in the fermentation process and the amount of acid used in the subsequent extraction of the long chain dicarboxylic acid, thereby reducing the amount of salt in the whole production process of the long chain dicarboxylic acid. At the same time, the method of the present invention also has many advantages such as shortening the fermentation time, increasing the acid production, reducing the amount of medium, and suitable for the production of various types of long-chain dicarboxylic acids, etc. Compared with the existing production process, the method of the present invention not only has significant cost advantages, but also can effectively reduce the pressure on resource and environment, thus it has a very obvious value advantage in industrialization.

    摘要: The present invention provides a decanedioic acid produced by microbial fermentation process, in which the content of C10 aliphatic acid and C10 hydroxy aliphatic acid is maintained at a very low level. The present invention also provides a preparation method of the decanedioic acid and a polymer prepared by using the decanedioic acid as monomer. The decanedioic acid provided by the present invention is prepared by microbial fermentation process. The decanedioic acid product which is produced through the processes of microbial fermentation and separation has a higher purity, a higher thermal stability, and a lower impurity content. The decanedioic acid provided by the present invention could satisfy the requirements of high grade product of polyamide or polyester to produce polymer with excellent qualities. The preparation method of the decanedioic acid provided by the present invention which has many advantages of mild reaction conditions, environmental friendliness, high yield, and good product quality, may replace the chemical method to be used in industrial scale production of the decanedioic acid.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for the purification of cadaverine from an aqueous cadaverine salt composition comprising one or more involatile impurities, the method comprising: (1) mixing the aqueous cadaverine salt composition with one or more bases to provide an aqueous cadaverine composition having a pH of at least about 12; (2) distilling or evaporating the aqueous cadaverine composition to produce an aqueous cadaverine solution, wherein one or more solvents are added to the evaporation/distillation system before the evaporation/distillation stops, and the one or more solvents comprise at least one or more high boiling point (HBP) solvents having a boiling point of at least 185° C. (1 atm); and (3) subjecting the aqueous cadaverine solution to one or more rectification steps to provide a cadaverine product.
