Potassium Formate Manufacturing Process
Manufacturing process of potassium formate
The manufacture of potassium formate is also a top priority for the chemical industry. There are various methods, and one of them is described in detail today.
Prepare various materials first, and formic acid, potassium hydroxide and other substances are required. The quality must be pure and the amount must be accurate. This is the basis for making good quality potassium formate.
In the kettle, add an appropriate amount of water, slowly inject formic acid, and stir it evenly. Gradually add potassium hydroxide to control its rate, and carefully observe its thermal change. When the two meet, it should be like boiling and hot out. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the temperature so that it is not strong and there is no loss.
When it is finished, the liquid may contain impurities. Considering that, it is a method of filtration. Filter it through a dense sieve, remove the slag, and leave the liquid, which is the solution of potassium formate.
After that, pipette into the evaporator. Raise its temperature, so that the water gradually steams, and the liquid gradually thickens. To an appropriate consistency, shift the crystallizer. Lower its temperature, potassium formate is precipitated, like a crystal, shining with light.
Then use a centrifuge to separate the crystals and the remaining liquid. The crystals are collected, and the liquid may be multiplexed to save materials. The obtained crystals still contain moisture, so they are placed in the dryer, remove the wetness, and reach a constant weight. Potassium formate is formed.
This process, with simple materials and orderly methods, can produce excellent potassium formate, which is of great use in both work and agriculture.
