Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for manufacturing sulfinate without producing a large amount of unnecessary salt. SOLUTION: The invention relates to the method for manufacturing sulfinate with few unnecessary salt comprising reduction of dithionite of alkali metal, alkali earth metal or ammonium by using a carbonyl compound or an imine at pH>6 in manufacturing the sulfinate.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing sodium dithionite comprising the steps (a) production of a synthesis batch consisting of sodium formate, sulphur dioxide and an alkaline sodium compound in an aqueous methanol solvent, which forms a sodium dithionite mother liquor, (b) separation of the sodium dithionite from the sodium dithionite mother liquor, leaving a residual mother liquor, (c) separation of methanol from the residual mother liquor, (d) separation of the residual mother liquor into a first sub-stream that is rich in thiosulphate and a second sub-stream that is devoid of thiosulphate, but contains formate by means of a nanofiltration, (e) concentration of sodium formate in the second sub-stream and (f) return of the concentrated second sub-stream to step (a).
Abstract:
2085481 9213912 PCTABS00014 Described are agglomerated polymer particles produced from finely divided water-soluble or water-swellable polymerisates and a method of producing such particles by the removal of water from azeotropic water-in-oil emulsions of water-soluble or water-swellable polymerisates in the presence of 1-40 % by wt., relative to the polymers, of poly(alkylene glycol) compounds (a) obtained by the addition reaction of C2-C4 alkylene oxides with alcohols, phenols, amines or carboxylic acids and (b) containing at least two alkylene oxide units in the polymer structure. The agglomerated polymer particles thus produced are subsequently isolated. The water-soluble agglomerated polymer particles may be used as flocculation, retention and water-removal agents, while the water-swellable polymer powder may be used as a thickening agent for aqueous systems, in particular for textile-printing pastes.
Abstract:
Disclosed is calcium carbonate with a high degree of brightness, which is produced by treating calcium carbonate, and/or the milk of lime used for the production thereof by reacting milk of lime with carbon dioxide, and/or at least one of the calcium-containing intermediate products used for the production of milk of lime, with a bleaching agent before, during, and/or following said reaction. Said bleaching agent contains at least one compound of formula A[(CR1R2)SOpM(1/q)]r (I), in which A represents NR3R4, NR3, N, or OH; R1, R2, R3, R4 independently represent hydrogen or an organic radical; M represents ammonium or a metal; p represents 2 or 3; q represents the valence of M; and r represents 1 if A=OH or NR3R4, 2 if A=NR3, and 3 if A=N. Said variables are independently selected for each individual compound and/or each [(CR1R2)SOpM(1/q)] group if a mixture of compounds is used and/or if r=2 or 3.
Abstract:
Calcium carbonate with high brightness is prepared by treating calcium carbonate and/or the milk of lime used for its preparation by reacting milk of lime with carbon dioxide and/or at least one of the calcium-containing preliminary products used for the preparation of the milk of lime before, during and/or after this reaction with a bleaching agent which comprises at least one compound of the formula (I): A[(CR 1 R 2 )SO p M (1/q) ] r (I) where the variables have the following meanings: A is NR 3 R 4 , NR 3 , N or OH; R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 independently of one another, are hydrogen or an organic radical; M is ammonium or metal p is 2 or 3; q is the valency of M; and r is 1 when A = OH or NR 3 R 4 , is 2 when A = NR 3 and is 3 when A = N; and where variables, if a mixture of compounds is used and/or r=2 or 3, are chosen independently of one another for each individual compound and/or for each [(CR 1 R 2 )SO p M (1/q) ] group.
