Separation of Fructose and Glucose

In a separation column packed with calcium charged crosslinked polystyrene ion exchange resin, the effects of various operating parameters on separation of fructose and glucose are investigated. The levels of separation between fructose and glucose decrease with the increasing of the rate of washing, mass ratio of feeding and volume of feeding. Under the typical condition of separation, highly pure fructose syrup having more than 90 percent on a dry solid basis is obtained.
