xylitol

Xylitol Characteristics of Production Procedure Xylitol is produced by biological method in THOMSON corporation. In comparison with traditional chemical method, the biological method demonstrates some notable advantages: 1. The product is pure natural. In addition, the biological hydrogenation technology ensures that no problem of catalyst residue arises, and thus makes xylitol a safer sweetener for consumption. 2. The biological technology as well as our advanced seperation technique guarantee that both a high yield and a high purity of the xylitol are obtained. Moreover, during the production process, the co-procuded L-arabinose is obtained simultaneously in a high purity. 3. The biological hydrogenation technology has the following advantages over traditional chemical method, which render our production procedure more energy-efficient and environment-friendly: (1) consuming less water, electricity, energy, acid and base; (2) giving higher yield of the product; (3) discharging less wastes. 4. The production of xylitol can be performed under neither hydrogen atmosphere nor high temperature and presure conditions, avoiding potential flame and explosion dangers.
