During the Inner Mongolia Ruifen Biotechnology Co's co-production process for erythritol and allulose, the microbial strain used to cultivate erythritol can serve directly as the biocatalyst source for the allulose enzymatic conversion process. This has enabled Ruifen Bio to increase enzyme activity in production by 20 percent, raise raw material conversion rates by 5 percent, shorten enzymatic conversion time by 30 percent, reduce production costs by 10 percent, and cut overall energy consumption by 15 percent.
