Polymeric cation-exchange resins are also used in the separation of fmctose from glucose. The UOP Sarex process has employed both 2eohtic and polymeric resin adsorbents for the production of high fmctose com symp (HFCS). The operating characteristics of these two adsorbents are substantially different and have been compared in terms of fundamental characteristics such as capacity, selectivity, and adsorption kinetics (51). 

The UOP Sarex process has been used since 1978 for the separation of high purity fmctose from a mixture of fmctose, glucose, and polysaccharides (87,88). The pilot-plant performance of fmctose—glucose separation is given in Table 6. 

The Sarex process employs the full allotment of Sorbex beds in addition to the four basic Sorbex zones. When a Sarex unit processes corn syrup that has an approximate composition (on a dry basis) of 42% fructose, 53% glucose and 5% other saccharides, it produces a fructose enriched corn syrup with >95% purity at >90% recovery [34, 35]. The Sarex process employs sufficient operating temperature to overcome diffusion limitations with a corresponding operating pressure to maintain liquid-phase operation.
