NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is pleased to present its offering of high-quality Industrial Grade Glucose. Known chemically as D-Glucose, with the CAS number 50-99-7 and molecular formula C6H12O6, this product is a versatile and essential raw material used across numerous industrial sectors. Supplied as a white crystalline powder or lumpy solid, our Industrial Grade Glucose meets stringent quality standards to ensure optimal performance in demanding applications. Its typical specifications include Solids ≥80% and a DE value ≥95, indicating high purity and reactivity.

Derived through the controlled conversion of high-quality starch or rice, Industrial Grade Glucose acts as a crucial intermediary product, bridging the gap between primary agricultural raw materials and complex industrial chemicals. Its widespread utility stems from its properties as a readily available sugar molecule.

Applications in Detail

One of the most critical applications of Industrial Grade Glucose is in the field of environmental protection, particularly in sewage treatment. Modern wastewater treatment plants often require an external carbon source to enhance the efficiency of biological nutrient removal (BNR), specifically for denitrification and biological phosphorus removal. Microorganisms responsible for these processes require organic carbon for metabolism and growth. Industrial Grade Glucose provides a highly bioavailable and easily metabolized carbon source, enabling these beneficial bacteria to thrive and effectively remove nitrates and phosphates from wastewater. This leads to improved water quality and compliance with environmental regulations. The use of glucose is particularly advantageous due to its high purity and consistent composition, ensuring predictable performance in sensitive biological systems. Furthermore, in some instances, it can assist as a component in sludge dewatering processes, although its primary role in sewage treatment is as a carbon supplement for microbial activity.

In the chemical industry, Industrial Grade Glucose functions effectively as a reducing agent. This property is utilized in various processes, including textile printing and dyeing, where it can help reduce dyes. It is also employed in the leather tanning industry. A classic application demonstrating its reducing power is in the silver plating process for mirrors and thermos bottles, where glucose reduces silver ions (Ag⁺) to metallic silver (Ag), depositing a reflective layer. This highlights its utility in redox reactions where a mild, sugar-based reductant is desired.

The fermentation industry relies heavily on Industrial Grade Glucose as a primary carbon source and energy substrate for microorganisms. In the production of a wide array of biochemicals, including antibiotics, amino acids (such as lysine, glutamic acid), organic acids (like citric acid, lactic acid), vitamins, and enzyme preparations, microorganisms are cultured in large fermenters. Glucose provides the essential carbon backbone and energy required for these microorganisms to synthesize the desired products efficiently. The quality and purity of the glucose are paramount to ensure consistent fermentation yields and prevent inhibition of microbial growth by impurities.

Beyond these major uses, Industrial Grade Glucose finds application in the food industry, not necessarily as a direct sweetener in finished products (as that typically requires a higher food-grade standard), but as a raw material or processing aid in the creation of other food ingredients or for certain fermentation processes within the food sector. Similarly, while pharmaceutical-grade glucose is required for injectables or active drug carriers, industrial grade may serve as a raw material for synthesizing certain excipients or intermediates used in the pharmaceutical industry, provided it meets the necessary specifications for that specific intermediate use.

Our annual production capacity is substantial, allowing us to meet large-scale industrial demand reliably.

Storage and Handling Precautions

Proper storage is crucial to maintain the quality and integrity of Industrial Grade Glucose. It should be stored in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated place. This is essential to prevent moisture absorption, which can lead to caking and degradation of the powder. The storage environment should be protected from moisture, rain, and high temperatures. Maintaining a storage temperature of approximately 20°C helps avoid unwanted reactions or changes in physical properties. Controlling humidity between 50% and 70% is also recommended to prevent excessive moisture uptake. Direct sunlight should be avoided as light can promote oxidative degradation of glucose. Storage areas should be waterproofed, and the product should be stored away from incompatible materials such as acids, alkalis, and strong organic substances, which could react with glucose. Keeping packaging intact and handling carefully helps prevent leakage and contamination. Regular inspection of stored material is advised to identify and address any potential issues promptly.
