During the debugging period of sewage treatment, glucose and other substances are added to provide a carbon source, which is to better cultivate bacteria and improve the biodegradability of sewage. Glucose, in contrast to general corrosion inhibitors, has a corrosion inhibition rate that increases with increasing temperature; The glucose scale inhibition technology requires strong chelating ability for calcium, magnesium, and iron salts, especially excellent chelating effect for Fe; Glucose, as a corrosion and scale inhibitor for circulating cooling water, is incomparable to other corrosion and scale inhibitors currently used, and can achieve the effect of eliminating pollution.

Glucose is widely used in industries such as sewage treatment, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, food, and microbial fermentation. During the debugging period of sewage treatment, glucose and other substances are added to the processing industry to provide a carbon source, which is to better cultivate bacteria and improve the biodegradability of sewage.
Q1: Where is your factory located?What is glucose, and what are its main uses?
A1: Glucose is a simple sugar (monosaccharide) that serves as a primary energy source for living organisms. It is widely used in:
1.Food industry – Used as a sweetener and energy source in beverages, candies, and baked goods.
2.Medical applications – Intravenous glucose solutions are used to treat low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) and dehydration.
3.Fermentation industry – Acts as a carbon source in the production of alcohol, antibiotics, and biofuels.
4.Water treatment – Used as a carbon source to support microbial growth in biological wastewater treatment.
Q2: What is the difference between glucose and sucrose?
A2:Glucose and sucrose differ in structure and metabolism:
1.Glucose (C6H12O6) is a monosaccharide, directly absorbed into the bloodstream.
2.Sucrose (C12H22O11) is a disaccharide, composed of glucose and fructose. It must be broken down before absorption.
3.Glucose has a lower sweetness level than sucrose but provides instant energy.
4.Sucrose is commonly found in table sugar, fruits, and processed foods.
Q3: What is the role of glucose in water treatment?
A3: Glucose is used as a carbon source in biological wastewater treatment to:
1.Enhance microbial activity – Provides an energy source for bacteria in biological treatment systems.
2.Improve denitrification efficiency – Supports bacteria that reduce nitrate levels in wastewater.
3.Balance nutrient levels – Helps maintain the proper C:N:P (carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus) ratio.
In industrial applications, glucose is an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic carbon sources for wastewater treatment.
Q4: What is the difference between medical-grade glucose and food-grade glucose?
A4: The key differences between medical-grade glucose and food-grade glucose include:
1.Purity: Medical-grade glucose has higher purity and fewer impurities.
2.Production standards: Medical glucose is produced under stricter pharmaceutical regulations.
3.Usage: Medical-grade glucose is used in intravenous (IV) infusions, while food-grade glucose is used in food processing.
For medical applications, only pharmaceutical-grade glucose should be used to ensure safety.
Q5: Is glucose suitable for people with diabetes?
A5: Glucose directly raises blood sugar levels, so it should be consumed with caution by diabetic patients. However:
1.In hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), glucose is essential to quickly restore normal levels.
2.Diabetic patients should monitor glucose intake and prefer complex carbohydrates for steady energy release.
3.Medical guidance is necessary to determine safe glucose consumption levels.
Diabetic individuals should consult a doctor before consuming glucose supplements.
