Biomass derived bifunctional catalyst for the conversion of cassava ...
2023年7月1日 · The conversion of cassava starch into sorbitol can include four key steps: (1) cassava starch hydrolysis to generate glucose, (2) cassava starch degradation to form byproducts, (3) glucose hydrogenation to produce sorbitol, and (4) glucose decomposition to generate byproducts.
present study is to investigate the potentials of glucose syrup from cassava starch for the production of sorbitol using sodium borohydride and also the effect of reaction time on conversion of cassava starch to glucose syrup.
Bioprocessing Cassava Bagasse: Part I—Bioproducts and
Li et al. revealed that cassava dreg and cassava starch were converted into sorbitol using a biomass-derived bifunctional catalyst. The maximum sorbitol yield of 11.43% was obtained with cassava dreg as the reactant, whereas, using cassava starch as the reactant, the maximum sorbitol yield was 82.51%.
Direct conversion of cellulose into sorbitol catalyzed by a ...
2019年2月1日 · The conversion of cellulose into sorbitol has been recognized as one of most promising biomass valorization routes for the production of high added-value chemicals. In this work, Sulfonic acid-functionalized carbonized cassava dregs supported ruthenium bifunctional catalyst (Ru/CCD-SO 3 H) was prepared.
Sustainable production of sorbitol—a potential hexitol
2020年1月1日 · The feedstocks for the production of sorbitol are corn, cassava, or wheat, which depend on today's food chain, and this transformation entails harsh reaction conditions such as relatively high temperature (403–423 K) and high pressure (40–120 bar).
How Africa’s first cassava-based sorbitol factory became reality in ...
2022年8月8日 · Last Thursday, August 4, a cassava-based sorbitol factory, said to be the first in Africa and second largest in the world, built by Psaltry international, was launched in Iseyin area of Oyo state, with a capacity to produce 25 tons of sorbitol per day.
Biomass derived bifunctional catalyst for the conversion of cassava ...
2023年7月1日 · In this paper, we measured blood sorbitol in diabetic rats using an improved biosensor, and discussed the effectiveness of the developed biosensor and the significance of sorbitol measurement.
Production of Sorbitol from Biomass | SpringerLink
2017年6月15日 · Two low-cost feedstocks, inulin and cassava starch , have been tested to produce sorbitol . The process involved the use of a commercial glucoamylase enzyme for the simultaneous saccharification of inulin and starch into high titer D-glucose and fructose hydrolysate , replacing the expensive and not commercially available inulinase enzyme.
