Hsu YC, Yang SC, Ku KF, Shiau LD. The Influence of the Solid Solution Formation on Purification of L-Menthol from the Enantiomer Mixture by Three-Phase Crystallization. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:14933. [PMID: 37834381 PMCID: PMC10573351 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241914933] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/02/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Three-phase crystallization (TPC) was introduced in this study to purify L-menthol from menthol enantiomer mixtures in consideration of the formation of solid solutions. TPC is a new separation technology, which combines melt crystallization and vaporization to result in the desired crystalline product from a liquid mixture along with the unwanted components vaporized via the three-phase transformation by reducing temperature and pressure. The three-phase transformation conditions for the liquid menthol enantiomer mixtures were determined based on the thermodynamic calculations to direct the TPC experiments. A new model was proposed based on the mass and energy balances in consideration of the formation of the solid solutions to predict the yield and purity of the final L-menthol product during TPC. The yield and purity obtained from the TPC experiments were compared with those predicted by the model.

Abstract
In this work, the isomer mixture of 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) and 2,4'-MDI was separated and purified by dynamic falling film melt crystallization, and 99.3% purity and 50.8% yield of 4,4'-MDI could be obtained under optimized conditions. The separation mechanism was simulated by density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Results showed that compared with 2,4'-MDI, 4,4'-MDI molecules could form a more stable and symmetrical crystal structure due to their stronger charge density symmetry and electrostatic potential energy. Furthermore, the separation phenomenon and the formation of the crystal structure were observed according to the radial distribution function (RDF) and orientation correlation function obtained from MD simulation. Finally, the attachment energy (AE) model was used to observe and compare different crystal surfaces; it was proposed that the aggregation of 4,4'-MDI was attributed to the polar attraction between isocyanate groups according to the results of the orientation correlation function. It was also observed that compared with 2,4'-MDI, 4,4'-MDI molecules on the (110) crystal surface were easier to form crystal structures.

Abstract
Stripping crystallization (SC) was introduced in this work to purify p-chlorophenol from the p-chlorophenol-rich liquid mixture and to purify m-chlorophenol from the m-chlorophenol-rich liquid mixture, respectively. Essentially, SC combines melt crystallization and vaporization to produce the solid product and the vapor from a liquid mixture via a series of three-phase transformations at reduced pressures during the cooling process. At the end of the SC, only the solid product remained while the liquid mixture was almost eliminated and the produced vapor was removed. A set of differential equations based on the mass and energy balances were proposed to determine the incremental variations of the amounts of remaining liquid, produced solid and produced vapor during the batch SC process. The experimental yield and product purity of the final product obtained from the batch SC experiments were compared with those predicted by the model.
