This disclosure relates to a method and a system for processing grapes. An example system includes a simulated moving bed (SMB) device configured to receive a feed stream and an eluent stream as inputs and provide an extract stream and a raffinate stream as outputs. The feed stream includes a grape juice, the extract stream includes a high-sugar grape juice, and the raffinate stream includes a low-sugar grape juice. The system also includes fermentation equipment configured to produce a low-alcohol wine from the low-sugar grape juice.

Methods are provided for the purification of isoidide. The methods comprise subjecting an at least partially deionized isoidide composition comprising isoidide and other isohexides to chromatographic separation of isoidide from other isohexides, removal of solvent from the isoidide, and crystallization of the isoidide. Isoidide of monomer-grade purity is obtained.

A system for reacting and separating solid and fluid components includes a series of sequential simulated moving bed (SMB) chromatography columns connected to form a circulation loop. Each SMB chromatography column includes an inlet and an outlet. A reactor is configured to receive a solid reactant and has an inlet and an outlet, and the reactor inlet is fluidly connected to an outlet of a first SMB chromatography column of the series of sequential SMB chromatography columns. The reactor outlet is fluidly connected to an inlet of a second SMB chromatography column of the series of sequential SMB chromatography columns.

The invention relates to extracts, in particular non-nutrient phytochemicals, form sugar cane or sugar beet waste products, such as molasses, sugar mud and bagasse, which have Glycemic Index (GI) lowering properties and their use as sweeteners and in foods containing sugar.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for separating betaine from fermentation process solutions, vinasse and other sugar beet based solutions on a weakly acid cation exchange resin in H+-form in the chromatographic separation process. The present invention relates also to use of a weakly acid cation exchange resin in H+-form for the chromatographic separation of betaine.
摘要:
The invention relates to an equipment for fractionating a solution by a sequential SMB process, which equipment comprises a feed column and one or several other columns, which include a chromatographic separation resin bed. The equipment of the invention is characterized in that the feed column consists of or comprises a compartment where the resin bed is shallower than that of one or more of the other columns of the equipment. The invention also relates to a method for fractionating a solution into two or more fractions with the equipment of the invention.
摘要:
The invention relates to removing crystallization inhibitors from a solution comprising one or more reducing sugars by nanofiltration, hydrolysis and/or chromatography. The reducing sugars are typically selected from fructose and xylose.

In a method of decalcification of purified sugar factory juices from a sugar factory process the juices, containing calcium ions, are sent onto an Na.sup.+ or K.sup.+ form strongly cationic ion exchange resin where the calcium ions are replaced with sodium and/or potassium ions. The ion exchange resin is then subject to regeneration (or washing) with dilute molasses. In a first variant of the method, the molasses is sent to the ion exchange resin in a cocurrent configuration. In a second variant, the molasses is sent to the ion exchange resin in a countercurrent configuration. This method can be used in a process to manufacture sugar from sugar beet or sugar cane.
摘要:
This invention relates to a process for the manufacture of crystal sugar from an aqueous sugar juice containing sugars and organic and mineral impurities, including Ca.sup.2+ and/or Mg.sup.2+ ions, such as a sugar cane or sugar beet juice, comprising the following operations:(a) concentration of said sugar juice to give a syrup, and(b) crystallization of said syrup to give a crystal sugar and a molasses,characterized in that it also comprises an operation:(c) of tangential microfiltration, tangential ultrafiltration or tangential nanofiltration, this operation being effected before operation (a).It also relates to a process for the production of crystal white sugar from a sugar juice of the sugar cane juice type, comprising the above-mentioned process for the production of crystal sugar, completed by re-melt, decolorization and crystallization operations.
摘要:
A economically viable method for producing sugars using concentrated acid hydrolysis of biomass containing cellulose and hemicellulose is disclosed. The cellulose and hemicellulose in the biomass is first decrystallized and then hydrolyzed to produce a hydrolysate containing both sugars and acid. Silica present in the biomass can then be removed for further processing. The remaining solids are then subjected to a second decrystallization and hydrolyzation to optimize the sugar yields. An improved method for separating the sugars from the acid in the hydrolysate is also disclosed. The resulting sugar stream can then be fermented, using an improved method which allows both hexose and pentose sugars to be fermented simultaneously.
