In order to optimize the efficiency of PMAH, several experimental parameters were investigated, including liquid-solid ratio, hydrolysis time, sulfuric acid concentration and hydrolysis temperature. The optimized hydrolysis conditions were as follows：pressured microwave-assisted hydrolysis of crude GA for 21 min （taking 15 min to reach 150 ℃, and holding it for 6 rain） at 150 ℃ （at a radiation power of 450 W） in 3%-5% sulfuric acid solution with the liquid-solid （ml.g-1 crude GA） ratio of 25 ： 1. As a result of the considerable saving in time and higher product yields （up to 90%）, PMAH was proved more effective than conventional methods.展开更多

The results showed that the values of k obs increased and the values of activation volume (AV) decreased with increasing pressure. Among pH conditions (3.58, 6.01 and 8.5), pH 8. 5 was found to be the unstable condition and its half-life was reduced from 263 min at 1 atm to 19.37 min at 10 atm. These results describe that high-pressure hydrolysis is a useful technique for the conversion of toxic organic phosphorus into inorganic phosphorus.
