Abstract

PURPOSE:To efficiently obtain the subject xylose of high purity at an industrially low cost by carrying out acid hydrolysis of the core layer of a babassupalm in a specified condition. CONSTITUTION:The core layer of a babassupalm is hydrolyzed in 0.1-3 N mineral acid at 100-130 deg.C, preferably 120 deg.C and at the ordinary pressure or an applied pressure, and the resultant liquid layer is subsequently subjected to the active carbon treatment, the ion-exchange resin treatment, etc., thus carrying out separation and purification of the objective compound. In addition, before the above-mentioned hydrolysis, impurities are preferably removed by boiling the raw material in water or a dilute acid of <=0.1N.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, xylose has been produced from natural plant materials containing large amounts of cellulose and various hemicelluloses in addition to xylan (for example, monocotyledonous plants such as oat, corn, or cottonseed, and beech, poplar, and birch). Hydrolysis using mineral acids, organic acids, or enzymatic agents as starting materials from dicotyledonous plants such as deciduous trees (e.g., deciduous trees, etc.) and waste organic raw materials from the valve and paper industry (wastes such as sulfite valves, kraft valves, semi-chemical valves, etc.) Attempts have been made to obtain this method. Furthermore, since these hydrolysates contain many types of saccharides and other impurities, methods such as fermentation removal of impurities using yeast have been used to purify them.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Generally, these starting materials are composed of various polysaccharides, so in addition to the target xylose, the obtained hydrolyzed sugar solution also contains pentose sugars such as arabinose and glucose,

On the other hand, as a method for producing xylose without contamination with other impurities as mentioned above, there is a method using the outer skin layer or core layer of the Babassu coconut shell as a raw material and using an enzyme agent (Japanese Patent Publication No. 56-50960). However, this method requires pretreatment steps such as de)nognonin and alkaline extraction of xylan, as well as post-treatment to separate the enzymatic hydrolyzate into xylose, a neutral component, and polyanionic substances, which are acidic components, including uronic acid. However, there were problems in that the process to obtain only xylose was complicated, and it was expensive and time consuming.

In addition, using natural products as raw materials for boat fishing poses problems regarding the stability of raw material supply. For example, if cottonseed husks are used as raw materials (Japanese Patent Publication No. 43-122371), due to the decrease in the utility value of cottonseed oil, there will be problems in the future. However, there is a problem with the stable supply of raw materials.In addition, in the plants used as raw materials, the state of existence of xylan is as follows.
They differ depending on their origin, and their behavior towards heat and chemicals also differs depending on the molecular weight of the xylan itself and the state of bonding with lignin and cellulose.

[Effects of the Invention] Conventionally, when producing xylose from plant materials, there were problems with the formation of contaminant sugars and the generation of acetic acid due to high temperature treatment (130° C. or higher). The present inventors have determined that the by-product of acetic acid is 100~
They discovered that this can be avoided by setting the temperature as low as 130°C, and that high-purity xylose can be produced by simply selecting the sulfuric acid treatment conditions using Babassu coconut shell kernels as a raw material. Babasu palm grows naturally in large quantities in South America, and the core layer in particular accounts for 58% of the palm, but it is of little use and is an untapped resource with excellent supply stability as a raw material. Moreover, the simplicity of the inherent process makes it possible to produce high purity xylose at low cost, making it extremely useful industrially.
