Abstract

The present invention is a method for the production of propylene glycol that includes fractionating a carbohydrate material into at least a first fraction and a second fraction. The method further includes the steps of processing the first fraction to generate a hydrogen product and processing the second fraction to generate a carbohydrate product. The hydrogen product and the carbohydrate product can then be reacted to form a reaction mixture including propylene glycol. The method of the present invention also includes separating propylene glycol from the reaction mixture.
