摘要

A process for the preparation of a composition of triacontanol and octacosanol from sorghum grains DDGS is disclosed. The process comprising multiple steps of organic solvent extractions has several advantages leading to formation of a composition having about 25 % to 55 % triacontanol by weight and about 15 % to 40 % octacosanol by weight.
