They say method to turn methanol into white sugar is ‘a promising strategy to address both environmental and population-related challenges’
Chinese
scientists have developed a method to turn the alcohol methanol into white
sugar, which they say could allow captured carbon dioxide to be converted into
food.
The team’s biotransformation system produces sucrose without the need to grow sugar cane or sugar beets – crops that require large amounts of land and water
resources.Their
method to convert methanol – which can be derived from industrial waste or made
by hydrogenating carbon dioxide – into sucrose using enzymes was also adapted
to make other complex carbohydrates, including fructose and starch.
