Abstract:
Compositions and processes for producing high purity acesulfame potassium are described. One process comprises the steps of providing a crude acesulfame potassium composition comprising acesulfame potassium and acetoacetamide, concentrating the crude acesulfame potassium composition to form a water stream and an intermediate acesulfame potassium composition comprising acesulfame potassium and less than 33 wppm acetoacetamide, and separating the intermediate acesulfame potassium composition to form the finished acesulfame potassium composition comprising acesulfame potassium and less than 33 wppm acetoacetamide. The concentrating step is conducted at a temperature below 90° C. and the separating step is conducted at a temperature at or below 35° C.

Claim (Index 15):
The process of  claim 4 , wherein the evaporating is conducted at a temperature ranging from 20\u00b0 C. to 55\u00b0 C., the evaporator residence time ranges from 1 minute to 300 minutes, the separating is conducted at a temperature ranging from \u221210\u00b0 C. to 15\u00b0 C., the separating operation residence time ranges from 1 to 180 minutes, the crude acesulfame potassium composition comprises from 500 wppm to 2375 wppm acetoacetamide, the intermediate acesulfame potassium composition comprises 10 wppb to 20 wppm acetoacetamide and 10 wppb to 20 wppm acetoacetamide-N-sulfonic acid, and the finished acesulfame potassium composition comprises from 10 wppb to 10 wppm acetoacetamide, and from 1 wppb to 20 wppm acetoacetamide-N-sulfonic acid.
