Abstract

The present invention relates to a xylitol preparation device integrating evaporation, crystallization and centrifugation, including a xylitol tank, a cleaning liquid tank, a recycling tank and a multiple distribution system, wherein the multiple distribution system includes J groups of evaporators for evaporation concentration, K groups of vacuum crystallization kettles for vacuum crystallization and L groups of centrifuges for centrifugation, wherein 2≤J≤6, 6≤K≤12 and 2≤L≤4; the evaporator, the vacuum crystallization kettle and the centrifuge in different groups are sequentially connected in series with one another through a pipeline and a valve respectively; by controlling on and off of each valve, a xylitol exchange liquid is switched and controlled between a series-connection mode and a parallel-connection mode in the multiple distribution system to enable evaporation, crystallization and separation processes to reach an optimal effect distribution so as to improve productivity. The present invention further discloses a control method of the device. The processes and equipment of the present invention are highly integrated to realize continuous integrated production of xylitol…
