  • Patent number: 10533017
    Abstract: A method for producing 1,4:3,6-dianhydrohexitols, including the steps of: a) supplying at least one hexitol, b) dehydrating the hexitol, and c) distillating the dehydration product produced in step b), wherein: the hexitol is supplied in the form of an aqueous solution in step a); and the distillation is carried out by means of a thin-film evaporator in step c).

    Assignee: ROQUETTE FRERES
    Inventors: Hervé Wyart, Mathias Ibert
  • Patent number: 10526340
    Abstract: A process for manufacturing crystals of 1,4:3,6-dianhydrohexitols, by manufacturing a solution of an internal dehydration product of at least one hexitol, distilling the solution, crystallizing, and wherein the crystallization mother liquors undergo a step of evaporative crystallization. Unlike the prior art processes that seek to recycle the crystallization mother liquors, evaporative crystallization economically and efficiently replaces the succession of steps consisting of at least one concentration, then at least one step of purification by distillation, chromatography, or crystallization.
