Se obtiene en reactores por lotes a través de la hidrogenación de la glucosa, sobre catalizadores de Ni-Raney. La lixiviación del níquel en el medio de reacción conlleva etapas de purificación y encarece el producto. Este trabajo evalúa el mercado actual y futuro del sorbitol, considerando sus aplicaciones. Además, recopila información sobre el uso de diferentes metales y soportes que ofrezcan mayor selectividad en la obtención del sorbitol a partir de la glucosa o directamente de la celulosa, procedente de residuos de biomasa. Se verificó que el mercado del sorbitol presenta una expectativa de crecimiento superior al 5 % hasta 2022. A pesar de que el catalizador de Ni-Raney es el más competitivo económicamente, puede ser sustituido por el rutenio soportado en diferentes materiales, de forma más eficiente.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[ABSTRACT Sorbitol is an important platform molecule with applications in the food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical sectors and with potential in biopolymers. It is obtained in batch reactors through the hydrogenation of glucose, on Ni-Raney catalysts. The leaching of nickel in the reaction media involves additional purification steps and makes the product more expensive. This work evaluates the current and future market of sorbitol, considering its applications. In addition, it collects information on the use of different metals and supports that offer higher selectivity in obtaining sorbitol from glucose or directly from cellulose, from biomass residues. It was verified that the sorbitol market presents an expectation of growth of more than 5 % until 2022. Even though the Ni-Raney catalyst is the most economically competitive, it can be replaced efficiently by the ruthenium supported in different materials.]]></p></abstract>
