Abstract
- L-arabinose and D-galactose could be released during the hydrolysis process of Arabic gum. The development of a crystallization process of L-arabinose is highly dependent on the knowledge of the solubility of both saccharides. In this work, the solubility of L-arabinose and D-galactose in binary mixtures of methanol-water or ethanol-water (mole fraction of water ≤0.5816) was determined at temperatures between 278.15 and 333.15 K by a static equilibrium method. The experimental data correlated well with the modified Apelblat equation, the simplified polynomial empirical equation, NRTL model and UNIQUAC model. Additionally, the thermodynamic properties including the dissolution enthalpy and entropy were obtained from the experimental data. Within the studied temperature range, the dissolution is endothermic and the dissolution process is non-spontaneous. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
