Ultrasonic Wave Effect on the Unit-process of Organic Synthesisi I. Oxydation of Aqueous Glucose Solution

초음파가 유기화합단위공정에 미치는 영향 (I) glucose 수용액의 산화에 관하여

When ultrasonic wave with barium titanate as an ultrasonic transducer (96.84kc, 1.4kv, 240mA) was applied to a dilute glucose solution, glucose was oxidized to glucuronic acid. It was found that the lower the glucose concentration, the higher the oxidation rate. The aeration and the presence of ferrous sulfate as a catalyst were found to increase the rate. The optimal duration for applying the wave to the solution was found to be six hours.
