Process and equipment for chromatographic separation of fructose/dextrose solutions

摘要: Large-scale apparatus and process for chromatographic separation of fructose/dextrose sugar solutions employing large diameter beds a strongly cationic salt an ion exchange resin. The resin is densely uniformly packed in column by means loading method which includes washing the with selected from group calcium, barium, strontium or silver salts shrunken then placed to completely fill column. After sealing column, excess washed away thereby expand inside confined chamber. dense packing chamber eliminates need mechanical baffles were formerly required insure regular uniform flow throughout entire cross sectional area columns. Large columns without are made possible invention because undesirable channeling irregular bed virtually eliminated. A liquid feed stream containing fructose dextrose second elution water fed through series alternate, cyclic pulses. streams further redistributed between successive increase degree output into portion rich fructose, another dextrose.
