Abstract
AbstractHemicelluloses are a major component of lignocellulosic biomass. Different sugars can be obtained from hemicelluloses: xylose, arabinose, galactose, mannose, glucose. Their catalytic hydrogenation produces polyols: xylitol, arabinitol, dulcitol, mannitol, sorbitol, which are valuable chemicals and platform molecules. In this paper, the hydrogenation of sugars was investigated with a Ru/TiO2 catalyst. The influence of temperature, pressure, xylose concentration and catalyst amount was studied for xylose hydrogenation and a Langmuir‐Hinshelwood kinetic model was designed. The comparative study of five hemicellulose sugars showed a strong impact of sugar structure on hydrogenation rate: hexoses (glucose, mannose, galactose) react slower than pentoses (xylose, arabinose).
