Description:
Corn starch, corncob and glucose are the three major raw materials for producing sugar alcohols in China. China is an important production country of corn starch, corncob and glucose in the world. In 2010, the total output of the three products reaches over 35 million tonnes. Through this report, you can find out the latest production situation of the three products respectively in China. Moreover, the latest planting situation of domestic corn will be also shown in the report.
Meanwhile, Corncob is used in many fields such as furfural, xylose, edible fungus, animal remedy, plastic, etc. Corn starch can be used in food processing, papermaking, beverage, etc. what is the detail of the consumption pattern of corncob and corn starch?
In recent years, there are several policies launched by Chinese government, which affects domestic raw material supply and market price more or less. What is the detail of these policies and how will these policies affect domestic sugar alcohols production?
At present in China, two production technologies of sugar alcohols are applied in industrial production namely hydrogenate technology and biological technology. Traditionally, glucose is hydrogenated in the presence of nitrogen as a catalyst under high pressure and high temperature, which is easy to realize industrial production of sugar alcohols on a large scale. However, this technology has some disadvantages.
Bioproduction to produce sugar alcohols is a promising and widely-used production technology in the world, including microbial fermentation and enzyme process with advantages of being safe, eco-friendly However, some important problems of biological technology have to be solved. What is the detailed information of the two technologies?
Among the major kinds of sugar alcohols in China, xylitol, mannitol and erythritol can be produced by biological method. Sorbitol and maltitol remain in chemical process. What is the detailed production technology of each sugar alcohol in China? Besides, there are also some important technology innovation and patent in China, leading to more efficient and more eco-friendly production of sugar alcohols. What are the latest technologies and patents of domestic sugar alcohols' production? All the aspects can be found in this report.
This report combines CCM International's expertise in the market research regarding the raw material and technology of sugar alcohols. Highlights of this report are listed as follows:
- Production and consumption of raw materials in China
- Description on raw material consumption pattern and application fields
- Production technology of sugar alcohols in China
- Latest production technology innovations and patents in China
