Assessing the recovery of dodecanol from alkyl polyglycosides (APG) using solvent extraction

Dodecanol, known as lauryl alcohol, is commonly used in the production of alkylpolyglycosides (APG) by reacting dextrose with an excess of dodecanol in the presence of an acid catalyst. After the reaction is completed, the challenging part is the purification step, to separate unreacted dodecanol fr...
