Abstract

Electrolysis of glucose was performed at constant potential using hydrogen_storage alloy as catalytic reduction electrode. It was found that the superficial treatment and activation of hydrogen_storage alloy powder had obvious effects on improving the current efficiency of sorbitol. Under the optimums, current efficiency of sorbitol by electrolyzing glucose was over 94%. The yield of sorbitol was over 80%, the lifespan of electrode was tested and analyzed, the ways of regeneration were discussed.
