More Information
Summary:The present invention relates to a process for the production of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) from the alkaline filtrate of Eucalyptus globulus Kraft pulp that involves only a direct step of acid hydrolysis using nitric acid, at moderate temperature and pH conditions and with low reaction times. Through this process it is possible to obtain a solution containing XOS with a polymeric distribution according to what is desired to obtain its nutraceutical properties and only with xylose as a by-product.
