SOLID ACID CATALYST SACCHARIFICATION APPARATUS AND METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a solid acid catalyst saccharification apparatus which can accurately grasp the reaction state of a raw material saccharification process using a solid acid catalyst. SOLUTION: This solid acid catalyst saccharification apparatus comprises a catalyst reaction tank 3 for receiving a polysaccharide of raw material together with water and a solid acid catalyst X2 as a mixture X3 and subjecting the polysaccharide to a monosaccharification treatment with the solid acid catalyst X2, a stirring device 4 for stirring the mixture liquid X3 in the catalyst reaction tank 3, an oxidation-reduction potentiometer 5 for measuring the oxidation-reduction potential of the mixture liquid X3 in the catalyst reaction tank 3, and a pH meter 6 for measuring the pH of the mixture liquid X3 in the catalyst reaction tank 3.
