Conversion of Carbohydrates to Organic Acids in Aqueous Medium Using Aluminum Nitrate as the Catalyst Precursor

Fructose, glucose, and sucrose were converted to organic acids in the presence of aqueous aluminum nitrate (Al(NO3)3) to develop a technically viable route for upgrading sugarcane molasses. Reactions were carried out in a microwave reactor and a muffle oven with conventional heating (convective heat...
