Glucarate-derived products

The innermost zone covers chemicals for which no petrochemical route exists, and therein lies a great opportunity to produce them from carbohydrate feedstocks (in the case that a market for them is present or arises) gluconic [91,92] and glucaric acids [17], furyl glycolic acid [87], furandicarboxylic acid [85], and fermentation-derived malic, citric, succinic, and itaconic acids [17]. Besides these, the sugar alcohols xylitol [78] and sorbitol [81, 93-95], as well as isosorbide [82, 96, 97], HMF [80,98], and furfural [44,99] are also present, along with tetroses and their derivatives obtained by dehydration [100]. For these molecules, it is virtually certain that no petrochemical-based production will ever be developed. Note that levulinic acid [67, 101-103] is at the border of this zone. [Pg.17]

Potential Commercial Markets - Aldaric acids, and in particular D-glucaric acid, represent a class of molecules whose direct use potential and synthetic potential have yet to be realized. Thus one can only speculate on the market potential they may have. Their monetary value will depend on to what extent they become commercially available and at what cost, and how many applications become economical. However, these acids are derived from renewable agriculture resources (in particular starch), and the growing trend toward adding value to ag materials will sooner or later drive their production and applications development. When that occurs we will know how much they are actually worth. [Pg.78]
