1. What is Lanolin?
Lanolin is an ideal raw material for the production of skin care products such as cold cream, anti wrinkle cream, anti crack cream, shampoo, hair conditioner, hair cream, lipstick and high-grade soap. It is often used as water in oil emulsifier, and is an excellent moisturizing substance. Lanolin is a kind of product with good water absorption, moisturizing, lipophilic, emulsifying and dispersibility, which is widely used in cosmetics, medicine, leather, agriculture and other industries.
2. Flow Chart
Preparation of crude lanolin product using wool washing sewage as raw material. The wool washing sewage is added with aluminum chloride to obtain the rotten mud containing lanolin. The water is absorbed to obtain the mud. Take 600kg of sludge, add 480kg of benzene, stir while adding, heat at 56 ℃ for 1h, stop stirring, precipitate for 1h, dissolve 6% - 40% lanolin in the clarified benzene solution, transfer it into the distillation tower, heat and distill until the lanolin content reaches 34%, cool to below 40 ℃, and discharge it to obtain crude lanolin. Wool washing sewage [AlCl3] → sludge [benzene, 30 ℃] → preparation of crude lanolin to neutralize benzene grease. Take 2100kg of crude lanolin and put it into a reaction pan, heat it to 50 ℃, then add about 50% (g/g) hot sulfuric acid solution to the crude lanolin, stir it for 45min, precipitate for half an hour, and then release the lower leg.
