The industrial production methods of L-threonine powder mainly include: ① synthesis; ② Fermentation method; ③ There are three methods of protein hydrolysis. It is now advocated to produce by fermentation.
Method 1. Direct fermentation:
1. The fermentation method is to use sugar, ammonia, homoserine as the culture medium, and refine the fermentation of glutaminus to produce L-threonine.
Using glucose as raw material, we selected the feedback inhibition and repression in the synthesis of nutrient deficient and structural analogues, and reached the acid production rate of 18 g/L for L-threonine, 14 g/L for Corynebacterium glutamicum, and 14 g/L for Cybacillus mucilaginosum. Glucose [Brevibacterium flavum, Corynebacterium glutamicum, Cybacterium mucosum, etc. → L-threonine.

3. It is prepared from crotonic acid or glycine. The product can also be obtained from glucose or starch by fermentation and refining with Escherichia coli, Brevibacterium flavum, Bacillus glutamicum or Corynebacterium crenatum as strains.

Method II: Chemical synthesis:
The L-threonine obtained by chemical synthesis is a mixture of four optical isomers, namely DL threonine. The amino acid constituting the protein is L-threonine, so it is necessary to separate the threonine from the other body, and then further carry out optical isomer resolution to obtain L-threonine.
Tobacco: BU, 22; FC,21; Synthesis: It can be obtained by hydrolyzing and refining protein (such as casein), or by synthesizing methanol and mercury acetate in acrylic acid derivatives.
Under alkaline conditions, copper glycine reacts with acetaldehyde to produce a similar aldol condensation reaction to synthesize two mixtures of threonine copper: threonine and other. According to their different stability and solubility, DL threonine can be separated from threonine by decoppering, and finally L-threonine can be separated. The production processes of small scale synthesis and scale-up are introduced as follows.
For glycine preparation, monochloroacetic acid and formaldehyde solution are mixed and cooled, and concentrated ammonia water is added to control the dropping speed. After adding ammonia water, keep it warm, reduce pressure and concentrate until crystallization occurs. The crude glycine is obtained by washing and drying. The crude glycine is added to water, heated to make it completely soluble, and decolorized by adding active carbon; Filter the filtrate, add methanol, put it in the refrigerator overnight, filter and crystallize to obtain L-threonine powder. The yield is about 60% - 68%.
Preparation of copper threonine:
Take copper glycinate, add methanol and stir to dissolve, then add ethanol to below 10 ° C, wait for the temperature to no longer rise, and then add sodium hydroxide in advance to dissolve in methanol solution for heat preservation reaction.
Filter while hot to remove insoluble substances, collect the filtrate and add glacial acetic acid. Reduce pressure to recover methanol until dry, then add methanol and stir and disperse, cool overnight.
After filtration, collection, crystallization, washing, and drying, a mixture of copper threonine and isothreonine is prepared with a yield of 68% to 74%.
Remove copper and refine the above-mentioned copper threonine, add ammonia hydroxide solution to completely dissolve it, filter and collect the filtrate, adsorb it with 732 cation exchange resin, and then wash it with ammonia and water until the solution no longer shows color as indene.
Mix the solution, concentrate it with a thin film, add ethanol to crystallize it, refrigerate overnight, filter to crystallize it, and obtain crude DL threonine. The yield is 62% compared to 73.8%.
Take crude DL threonine, heat it with water to completely dissolve it, remove the color and filter the filtrate, add ethanol, cool overnight, filter and crystallize to obtain refined DL threonine. The yield ranges from 87% to 91.3%.
Split and refine:
Mix refined DL threonine, DL threonine, and water, slowly stir and heat to dissolve.
Cool again, add D-threonine, slowly cool, separate crystalline D-threonine, filter the crystals, and obtain D-threonine after drying.
Collect the filtrate, add the same amount of DL threonine as the separated D-threonine, maintain the total volume constant, and perform the same operation as the separation of D-threonine to obtain L-threonine.
After multiple operations, D-threonine and L-threonine can be separated.
The corresponding D-threonine crude oil and L-threonine crude oil products are combined for refining, i.e. recrystallization.
Take D-threonine and L-threonine separately, add water, heat until completely dissolved, decolorize with activated carbon, filter while hot and collect the filtrate, add ethanol and let it cool, stir regularly, precipitate into crystals, and obtain D-threonine and L-threonine fine products with yields ranging from 87.3% to 91.6%. The content of L-threonine exceeds 95%.
Glycine is used as raw material to react with basic copper carbonate to produce copper glycine α- H is active. Under alkaline conditions, similar cross aldol condensation reaction can occur between copper glycine and acetaldehyde to generate DL threonine copper (including threonine and red body). Then DL threonine is separated from threonine by ion exchange and copper removal. Finally, D-threonine and L-threonine are separated by induced crystallization. The reaction is as follows:
The preparation of copper glycine is carried out in a reaction tank. Put glycine into a tank, add water, and use alkaline copper sulfate to maintain heat.
The unreacted copper salt is filtered and discarded. The filtered solution is cooled overnight, filtered and crystallized, and dried to obtain blue copper glycine.
The preparation of copper threonine is carried out in a reaction tank. Put copper glycinate into the reaction tank, add methanol, stir to dissolve, then add acetaldehyde and KOH methanol solution, stir and maintain, and filter insoluble substances.
Add glacial acetic acid to the filtered liquid, and restore the dry state of methanol under reduced pressure. Add water, stir and disperse, then let it stand overnight.
After filtration and crystallization, washing and drying, copper threonine mixed with other threonine is obtained.
L-threonine powder is separated by ion exchange and copper removal. The above-mentioned copper threonine water and ammonia water are separately placed in reaction tanks, stirred and dissolved, filtered, and taken out from the 732 cation exchange column on the filtrate, and then washed with ammonia water and deionized water in sequence.
Mix the dissolution solution, concentrate the film to 150 liters, add ethanol, stir, cool, and crystallize overnight. Rough DL threonine is obtained through filtration, crystallization, and drying.
