Abstract

Monosaccharides such as glucose solution are catalytically hydrogenated in fixed bed reaction process using a high activity nickel catalyst to produce at least about 98 W % conversion to sorbitol solution. The feedstream pH is controlled to between 7 and 13 by adding a basic solution such as sodium hydroxide. Reaction zone conditions are 500-2000 psig hydrogen partial pressure, 130.degree.-180.degree. C. temperature, and use a ratio of hydrogen gas/feed liquid within the range of 1000-5000. Feedstream liquid space velocity is within range of 0.5-3.5 Vf/Hr/Vc.
