The production volume of hydrogen peroxide is in hundreds of thousands of tons. It is one of the most widespread and valuable products in modem chemistry. All over the world hydrogen peroxide is widely applied in epoxidation and hydroxylation processes, for example, in glycerol production from allyl alcohol or organic peroxides, which are polymerization and vulcanization initiators. 

The must is then left to settle for 3-4 days at temperature below 8-10 °C. Indeed, contact with the sediment can cause the future Vinsanto to show unwanted aroma deviations and color. In this context, more attention needs to be paid to the settling of the must from botrytised grapes. From the sugars, B. cinerea can produce polysaccharides that can muddy the wine and have inhibitory actions on the metabolism of the yeast, and can therefore contribute to the slowing of fermentation and to the increase acetic acid and glycerol production by the yeast (Tachis, 2003).

Ethanol production is essentially redox neutral however metabolism associated with biomass production generates nett NADH, which is oxidised largely by glycerol production. Other important NADH oxidising reactions with flavour implications are the production of 2,3-butanediol, L-malic acid and succinic add. When glycerol production is stimulated by non-growth associated reactions (i.e. osmotic stress) NAD+ reduction occurs by other reactions including the oxidation of acetaldehyde to acetic acid...
