。(Conventional technology) The pressure crystallization method has great potential for application to raw materials that are difficult to separate using conventional distillation methods and cooling crystallization methods, it is easy to obtain high-purity products, and Due to its easy yield and low energy consumption, it is a separation and purification technology that has been attracting a lot of attention as the chemical industry has become increasingly refined in recent years.

て配管側により連結されている。An overview of this pressure crystallization method can be found, for example, in Kagaku Kogyo Volume 50 (
(1986), p. 331, "Outline of pressure crystallization method and apparatus". To explain this using Figure 1 (a diagram showing the process flow and the concept of the device), the pressure vessel (1)
is provided with a lid (2) at the bottom, and a piston (5) is provided to move up and down within the container (1) by the operation of a hydraulic unit (3). (

) are connected. Further, the crystallization chamber (4) and the pre-crystallizer (7) are connected to each other by a piping side via a raw material supply pump (8) and a valve 02).

の成長が期待出来る利点がある。In this apparatus, the raw material is fed from the raw material tank 0 to the pre-crystallizer (7), where it is cooled to produce seed crystals for pressure crystallization. This is because when raw materials without seed crystals are subjected to pressure crystallization, the supersaturation pressure is generally relatively high, typically several hundred atmospheres or more, and high pressure is required for initial crystal formation. This is because there is a risk that the slurry containing seed crystals will be supplied, which has the advantage that not only is there no need to worry about such supersaturation pressure, but crystal growth can be expected without nucleation due to pressurization.

方法が採用される。Next, the raw material is transferred from the pipe 0 to the crystallization chamber (4) via the valve 021.

ω is closed and pressurization by the piston (5) is started. When the raw material liquid is pressurized, crystallization of specific substances in the raw material progresses,
The inside of the crystallization chamber (4) is in a solid-liquid equilibrium state under high pressure. The solid produced at this time is generally a substance of extremely high purity. Note that the temperature inside the crystallization chamber (4) rises due to the latent heat of solidification generated as solidification progresses, but in the pressure crystallization method, cooling is generally not performed to prevent this temperature rise, and heating is performed adiabatically. A pressure method is adopted.

When this pressure is detected, the valve (11) is immediately opened and the solid-liquid ratio is reached. Begin separation. Then, with the valve (11) open, if the piston continues to descend while maintaining the pressure acting on the piston (5) from the hydraulic unit (3), the pressure in the crystallization chamber (4) will be maintained constant. The liquid phase is discharged from the crystallization chamber (4) into the drain tank (6) in the same state.

At the stage of separation, the liquid phase pressure in the crystallization chamber (4), which is connected to the drain tank (6) under atmospheric pressure, gradually decreases, so the crystal surface partially melts. A so-called "sweating wash" is carried out to purify the bulk solid product.

収率が低いという問題点がある。(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, in the conventional pressure crystallization method, the actually obtained product yield may be lower than the expected product yield. As a result of various studies aimed at improving this yield, it was found that this decrease in yield is particularly remarkable in material systems with low crystal growth rates. It was also confirmed that the lower the crystal growth rate, the greater the decrease in yield. As described above, the conventional pressure crystallization method has a problem in that the product yield is low in material systems with a low crystal growth rate.

(作用および実施例)
結晶成長速度の小さい物質系において製品収率が低い原
因に関して検討した結果に基づき、以下説明する。(Operations and Examples) Based on the results of an investigation into the causes of low product yields in material systems with low crystal growth rates, explanations will be given below.
第2図に、加圧後における時間(横軸:L)と高圧容器
内圧力及び温度(縦軸:P,?)との関係を示す。この
例は、所定圧力reに達するまで加圧した後、該圧力P
eに保持し続けたときのものである。FIG. 2 shows the relationship between the time after pressurization (horizontal axis: L) and the internal pressure and temperature of the high-pressure container (vertical axis: P, ?). In this example, after pressurizing until a predetermined pressure re is reached, the pressure P
This is what happens when it continues to be held at e.
図中Pは圧力、Taは結晶成長速度の大きい物質系Aの
場合の温度、Tbは結晶成長速度の小さい物質系Bの場
合の温度を示している。In the figure, P indicates the pressure, Ta indicates the temperature in the case of material system A with a high crystal growth rate, and Tb indicates the temperature in the case of material system B with a low crystal growth rate.
この図から判る様に、圧力Pが1,秒後に所定圧力Pe
に達すると、物質系Aの場合はほぼ同時に昇温が終了し
、温度Taが最高温度Teに達している。As can be seen from this figure, the pressure P changes to the predetermined pressure Pe after 1 second.
When the temperature Ta reaches the maximum temperature Te, the temperature increase for the material system A ends almost at the same time.
ところが、物質系Bの場合は、所定圧力Peに達しても
昇温のi8渡朋にあり、t2秒後に最高温度Teに達す
る。However, in the case of material system B, even when the predetermined pressure Pe is reached, the temperature is still rising at i8, and reaches the maximum temperature Te after t2 seconds.
この昇温は、晶析の進行に伴って発生する固化潜熱によ
るものである。故に、物質系Bの場合は、所定圧力Pe
に達しても、未だ晶析が進行中である。従って、所定圧
力Pe到達後、すぐに固液分離を開始すると晶析が未完
了の状態で固液分離されてしまうため製品収率が低くな
る。これが、従来の圧力晶析方法において結晶成長速度
の小さい物質系の場合に製品収率が低くなる原因である
。This temperature increase is due to latent heat of solidification generated as crystallization progresses. Therefore, in the case of material system B, the predetermined pressure Pe
Even after reaching , crystallization is still in progress. Therefore, if solid-liquid separation is started immediately after the predetermined pressure Pe is reached, solid-liquid separation will occur before crystallization is completed, resulting in a low product yield. This is the reason why product yields are low in conventional pressure crystallization methods for material systems with low crystal growth rates.
即ち、従来の方法は、所定圧に到達すると直ちに弁(1
1)を開き、液相分を該容器外に排出して固液分離を開
始するものである。故に、結晶成長速度の大きい物質系
の場合は、所定圧に達すると直ちに晶析が完了するので
、所定圧到達後すぐに固液分離が開始されても所期の製
品収率が得られる。That is, in the conventional method, as soon as the predetermined pressure is reached, the valve (1
1) is opened, the liquid phase is discharged out of the container, and solid-liquid separation is started. Therefore, in the case of a substance system with a high crystal growth rate, crystallization is completed as soon as the predetermined pressure is reached, so even if solid-liquid separation is started immediately after the predetermined pressure is reached, the desired product yield can be obtained.
しかし、結晶成長速度の小さい′+!fJi系の場合は
所定圧に達しても未だ晶析が完了していないので、晶析
未完了の状態で固液分離されてしまう。そのために製品
収率が低いものとなるのである。However, the crystal growth rate is low ′+! In the case of the fJi system, crystallization is not yet completed even when the predetermined pressure is reached, so solid-liquid separation occurs in an incomplete state of crystallization. This results in a low product yield.
この製品収率を改善するには、所定圧力Peに保持した
状態で結晶生成量が所定量に達してから固液分離を開始
するようにすればよい。このとき最高温度Teに達する
12秒後に、固液分離を開始すると、最高の製品収率が
得られる。In order to improve this product yield, solid-liquid separation may be started after the amount of crystal formation reaches a predetermined amount while maintaining the pressure at a predetermined pressure Pe. At this time, if solid-liquid separation is started 12 seconds after reaching the maximum temperature Te, the highest product yield can be obtained.
そこで、本発明に係る圧力晶析方法は、前に説明したよ
うに、高圧容器内にて原料を所定圧に到達した後該圧力
に保持し、該圧力保持状態で結晶生成量が所定量に達し
たことを検知してから、前記固液分離を開始するように
している。このようにすると、結晶成長速度の小さい物
質系の場合でも、製品収率を高いものにし得るのである
。Therefore, as explained above, in the pressure crystallization method according to the present invention, after the raw material reaches a predetermined pressure in a high-pressure container, it is maintained at that pressure, and while the pressure is maintained, the amount of crystal formation reaches a predetermined amount. After detecting that the solid-liquid separation has been reached, the solid-liquid separation is started. In this way, even in the case of a material system with a low crystal growth rate, a high product yield can be achieved.
上記結晶生成量が所定量に到達した事(以降、所定量到
達という)を検知する具体的方法に関して、以下に述べ
る。A specific method for detecting that the amount of crystal formation has reached a predetermined amount (hereinafter referred to as reaching the predetermined amount) will be described below.
前記の如く、昇温は晶析の進行に伴って発生する固化潜
熱によるものであるので、温度と結晶生成量とは密接な
関係がある。従って、予めこの関係を求め、それに基づ
き所定の結晶生成量に対応する温度を設定しておき、該
設定値に到達した事を検知すれば、所定量到達を検知で
きる。As mentioned above, since the temperature increase is due to the latent heat of solidification generated as crystallization progresses, there is a close relationship between the temperature and the amount of crystal formation. Therefore, by determining this relationship in advance, setting the temperature corresponding to a predetermined amount of crystal formation based on it, and detecting that the set value has been reached, it is possible to detect that the predetermined amount has been reached.
ところで、温度と結晶生成量との関係は、晶析開始温度
、即ち・原料供給温度によって異なる。この温度は、種
々の要因により、時として1°C程度の変動はあり得る
と考えるべきである。従って、高圧容器内への供給原料
の温度と加圧後の高圧容器内温度との差を検出して昇温
量を求め、該昇温量が予め設定された値に到達した事を
検知する事により、所定量到達の検知を行う方がより望
ましい。尚、この昇温量は、第2図ではΔTで示される
ものである。Incidentally, the relationship between temperature and the amount of crystal formation varies depending on the crystallization start temperature, that is, the raw material supply temperature. It should be considered that this temperature may sometimes fluctuate by about 1°C due to various factors. Therefore, the amount of temperature increase is determined by detecting the difference between the temperature of the raw material fed into the high-pressure container and the temperature inside the high-pressure container after pressurization, and it is detected that the amount of temperature increase has reached a preset value. In some cases, it is more desirable to detect when a predetermined amount has been reached. Note that this temperature increase amount is indicated by ΔT in FIG.
また、前記の如く、最高の製品収率を得るためには、最
高温度Teに達してから固液分離を開始すればよいが、
最高温度Teに達する迄に長時間を要する様な場合には
、!サイクル(原料供給から製品取り出しまで)に要す

。従って、この様な場合は、製品収率と生産量とのバラ
ンスを考慮し、ある程度の温度或いは昇温量に達した時
点、例えば時間1,1秒後の時点で固液分離を開始する
のが好ましい。Furthermore, as mentioned above, in order to obtain the highest product yield, solid-liquid separation should be started after reaching the maximum temperature Te;
If it takes a long time to reach the maximum temperature Te,! The time required for the cycle (from raw material supply to product removal) becomes longer, and the production volume per unit time decreases. Therefore, in such cases, considering the balance between product yield and production amount, it is recommended to start solid-liquid separation when a certain temperature or amount of temperature increase is reached, for example, after 1.1 seconds. is preferred.

In the figure, P indicates pressure, La indicates piston displacement in the case of a material system with a high crystal growth rate, and Lb indicates piston displacement in the case of material system B with a low crystal growth rate.
この図から判る様に、圧力Pが11秒後に所定圧力Pe
に達すると、物質系Aの場合のピストン変移Laはほぼ
同時に一定値Le(最高値)に到達する。As can be seen from this figure, the pressure P changes to the predetermined pressure Pe after 11 seconds.
, the piston displacement La for material system A reaches a constant value Le (maximum value) almost at the same time.
ところが、物質系Bの場合は、所定圧力Peに達しても
ピストン変移の過渡期にあり、12秒後に一定値Leに
達する。However, in the case of material system B, even when the predetermined pressure Pe is reached, the piston is still in the transition period of displacement, and reaches the constant value Le after 12 seconds.
このピストン変移は、晶析に伴う体積減少によるもので
ある。故に、物質系Bの場合は、所定圧力Peに達して
も、未だ晶析が進行中である。This piston displacement is due to volume reduction accompanying crystallization. Therefore, in the case of material system B, even if the predetermined pressure Pe is reached, crystallization is still in progress.
上記のようにピストン変移と結晶生成量とは密接な関係
がある。従って、予めこの関係を求め、それに基づき所
定の結晶生成層に対応するピストン変移を設定しておき
、該設定値に到達した事を検知すれば、所定量到達を検
知できる。As mentioned above, there is a close relationship between the piston displacement and the amount of crystal formation. Therefore, by determining this relationship in advance, setting the piston displacement corresponding to a predetermined crystal formation layer based on it, and detecting that the set value has been reached, it is possible to detect that the predetermined amount has been reached.
ところで、ピストン変移と結晶生成量との関係は、晶析
開始時点のピストン位置によって異なる。このピストン
位置は、種々の要因により異なり、多少の変動はあり得
ると考えるべきである。従って、所定圧に到達した後の
ピストンの変移が予め設定された値に到達した事を検知
する事により、所定量到達の検知を行う方が望ましい。Incidentally, the relationship between the piston displacement and the amount of crystal formation differs depending on the piston position at the time of starting crystallization. This piston position varies depending on various factors and should be considered to be subject to some variation. Therefore, it is preferable to detect that the predetermined amount has been reached by detecting that the displacement of the piston after reaching the predetermined pressure has reached a preset value.
尚、この変移は、第3図ではΔして示すものである。Note that this transition is indicated by Δ in FIG.

開始するのが好ましい。In addition, in order to obtain the highest product yield, solid-liquid separation should be started after the piston displacement reaches a constant value Le or ΔL corresponding to Le, but it takes a long time to reach these values. If this is required, the production amount per unit time will decrease. Therefore, in such a case, considering the balance between product yield and production amount, it is preferable to start solid-liquid separation when the piston reaches a certain level of displacement, for example, when the displacement Lf is reached.

It is also possible to start solid-liquid separation by detecting that 2 or more has been reached.
