Question Four Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol naturally found in fruits that is often used as a low calorie sweetener in medicinal solutions (MedicineNet.com, 2014). It can be produced from glucose from a hydrogenation reaction using a Ru/NbOPO. catalyst as seen below: CHOM HO HROPOF WOW Figure 1: Hydrogenation of glucose to sorbitol (X, et al. 2013) Accumulated rate data from operation in a CST is shown in Table 1 below Table 1: Rate data for hydrogenation of glucose Rate (mol glucose/x cat min) Run Partial Pressure (atm) Glucose (6) .
