Kolin klorür tozlar için hazırlanması bu buluş yöntemi

This invention is concerned with a powdered form of Kolin klorür which has a higher Kolin klorür content than hitherto known with retention of desirable flow and storage properties, ve bu ürünü üretmek için bir işlem.

Kolin klorür kimyasal bir (2-hidroksietil)trimetilamonyum klorür. It is a source of choline which is one of the vitamin B-complex. It finds commercial use as a nutritional factor, primarily as a dietary supplement for poultry and swine, and for pharmaceutical applications. The compound in the pure, anhydrous state is a white, crystalline solid which is very soluble in water or alcohol. It is quite hygroscopic and very rapidly picks up enough moisture to become a syrupy liquid. Sonuç olarak, choline chloride is usually sold as a water solution-a 70% concentration is a common commercial form.

Kolin klorür – DIETARY REQUIREMENTS OF BROILERS

Choline supplementation in broilers shows a linear response in weight gain up to 1115mg/kg from 10-22 Yaş günlerinde. Increasing choline content up to 2000mg/kg further increases the weight gain but over and above this value no significant increase in weight gain was observed. Thus it could be concluded that excess level of choline supplementation had no additional benefit.

Kolin klorür – DIETARY REQUIREMENTS OF LAYERS

Katmanlar, like broilers, have an essential requirement for choline. Choline is required for the formation of a phospholipid lecithin, a component of egg yolk. Current NRC recommendations for choline allowances in laying hens are 105 mg/day for white egg layers and 115 mg/day for those laying brown eggs. On an average for the two groups it can be concluded that required dietary concentration of choline at feed intake levels of 100 ve 110 g/day respectively, is approximately 1100 mg/kg.
There are several factors which influence a hen’s requirement for choline, like age, feed intake and dietary crude protein or methionine levels. It is generally accepted that dietary requirement declines with age, possibly associated with an increasing feed intake. Methionine is the first limiting amino acid for egg production and, given the common function with choline in methyl group donation, interactions between the two nutrients may be anticipated. Choline requirement in layers also varies according to the methionine and cysteine levels in feed. A diet rich in M+C has low requirement of choline and vice-versa.

The following examples illustrate the method of preparation for the choline chloride powders of this invention.

Örnek 1 Preparations using Diluex clay (bir) Spray drying of an aqueous slurry of choline chloride and Diluex.

A slurry was prepared by mixing 970 pounds of a 63% aqueous choline chloride solution and 300 pounds of Diluex clay. This slurry Was heated to 140 F. and had a viscosity of 480 centipoises. The slurry was pumped to a 10-foot diameter spray dryer and atomized at a pressure of 1500 pounds per square inch by means of a nozzle into the dryer. The slurry, after pumping, was found to mately the same length of time. In this manner, a substantially uniform surface impregnation of the dried choline chloride particles occurred. The solid product was separated by means of a cyclone collector and discharged into a container. The following table gives details of these preparations, all of which gave a stable, Kuru, freeflowing Kolin klorür toz suitable for commercial use.

periodically blocked the flow of the product into the collecting drums and necessitated hammering on the walls to again start the flow. The dried choline chloride powder caked in the collecting drums. The amount of solid recovered from the collector represented 64% arasında 912 lbs. theoretical. By cleaning out the dryer, another 15% of the solid product was recovered, thus increasing the total solids accountability to 79%. The product was found by analysis to contain 65% Kolin klorür.

By this method, there was ditficulty with the viscosity of the original slurry increasing, with solids adhering to the walls of the drying and collecting system, with caking of the product, and with poor yields.

(B) Spray drying by separate feeding of aqueous choline chloride solution and Diluex.

Another preparation was made in the same spray dryer and with the same drying conditions except that the choline chloride solution was atomized alone while the Diluex clay was fed directly into the top of the dryer. The clay was supplied at such a rate that approximately 1 lb. of it was fed into the dryer for every 3.2 lbs. of the choline chloride solution which was atomized. The solids on the walls of the dryer rapidly reached an equilibrium depth and flowed readily through the collecting system. No trouble was experienced in discharging the solids from the cyclone collector. The product flowed freely into the container drums and did not cake. The solid which collected in the drums amounted to 82% of the solids fed into the dryer and a partial cleaning of the dryer increased this amount to 87%. The resulting dry, free-flowing solid contained by analysis 72% Kolin klorür.

OTHER EXAMPLES A series of runs was made in a manner of that described in Example 1(B), but using a 4-foot diameter spray dryer. Air was passed in at the rate of 250 cubic feet per minute and entered the chamber at a temperature of about 170 için 210 C. and left it at a temperature of about 110 C. bir 63% aqueous solution of choline chloride was atomized into the chamber of the spray dryer through a nozzle at a pressure of 100 pounds per square inch. The powdered additive was introduced into the top of the drying chamber near the air inlet by means of a screw-type conveyor. The rate of introduction of the two feed streams into the drying chamber was adjusted so that both materials were added in approxi- In the same manner, other aqueous choline chloride solutions up to concentration may be used and the amount of the powdered additive may be varied so that the final product contains choline chloride up to The choline chloride powders of this invention may be used alone or in admixture with other materials commonly used in animal feeds. Likewise, the powder may be shaped into other forms, such as pellets, if desired.

By means of this invention, there are provided new choline chloride powders of high choline chloride content which are essentially dry, free-flowing and stable, and which are made by a novel and economic process. Such a product fulfills a long standing commercial need.
