METHOD FOR PRODUCING GLUCOSE AND/OR WATER-SOLUBLE CELLOOLIGOSACCHARIDE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new method for efficiently producing glucose and/or a water-soluble cellooligosaccharide from a cellulosic material.

SOLUTION: This method for producing glucose and/or the water-soluble cellooligosaccharide comprises hydrolyzing cellulose≥100 in mean degree of polymerization by contact reaction with supercritical or subcritical water for 0.01-5 s, cooling and then further contact reaction with subcritical water for 1 s to 10 min.
