Route of Synthesis (ROS)
| 1. Made from wheat, corn and other starches through safe and appropriate food-grade hyperosmotic yeasts such as Moniliella pllinis, Candidalipolytica or TrichosporoChemicalbooknoides megachilensis at high concentrations (>450g/L) ) After enzymatic fermentation, the fermented mash is heat sterilized and filtered, then purified by ion exchange resin, activated carbon and ultrafiltration, crystallized, washed and dried. The general yield is about 50%. |
| 2. Erythritol can be extracted from seaweed, moss and certain grasses. Artificial synthesis can be achieved by reacting butenediol with hydrogen peroxide. Among them, butenediol is made of 2-butyne-1,4-diol from the Chemicalbook of acetylene and formaldehyde, and then the aqueous solution is mixed with Raney nickel and added to the inhibitor ammonia, and hydrogenated at about 0.5MPa. of. |
| 3. After the starch milk is enzymatically hydrolyzed into glucose, it is fermented by hypertonic yeast at a high concentration and then concentrated, crystallized, separated and dried. |
