Abstract

Recently, biodegradable polymers are gaining more and more attention due to international environmental issues. Succinic acid is synthesised by chemical process of hydrogenation. Succinic acid synthesized has certain amount water content. To remove the water contained in succinic acid is used generally by hot air drying process. But recently, microwave drying process having the advantage of shortening the drying time and uniform drying of product are gaining more attention. In this study, hot air drying and microwave drying efficiency were compared at drying process. In addition, we confirmed commercial applicability in microwave drying process of succinic acid. Microwave drying process has higher efficiency than 70% compared with hot air drying process at thickness of 1cm. Economic efficiency were compared through examination of power consumption for complete drying of succinic acid at microwave and hot air dyring.

최근 생분해성 고분자 수지의 수요가 증가함에 따라 그의 원료인 호박산의 수요도 증가하고 있다. 일반적으로 호박산은 화학적 공정인 수소화 반응으로 합성된다. 합성된 호박산은 일정량의 수분을 함유되고 있으며 이를 제거하기 위한 건조공정으로는 열풍건조가 일반적으로 사용된다. 그러나 최근 건조시간 단축과 제품의 균일한 건조가 가능하다는 장점을 가진 마이크로파 건조공정이 각광받고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 건조공정에서 열풍건조와 마이크로파 건조 효율을 비교하였으며 마이크로파 건조 시 최적 조건을 찾아내어 가장 효율적인 호박산 건조 방법 및 운전조건을 확립하였다. 또한 호박산 건조공정에서 마이크로파건조의 상업적 적용가능성을 검토하였다. 실험결과 호박산 샘플의 두께가 1 cm일 때 마이크로파를 이용한 건조가 열풍건조보다 70%의 높은 효율을 확인하였다. 또한 마이크로파건조와 열풍건조 시 호박산의 완전건조까지 소비되는 전력량 검토를 통하여 경제적 효율성을 비교하였다.
