Abstract In this paper, the development courses of simulated moving bed chromatography(SMB) are introduced. The operation modes of simulated moving bed chromatography are summarized including sequential simulated moving bed and Varicol. New types of simulated moving bed chromatographic reactors are discussed. The applications of SMB are reviewed in sugar alcohol separation and chiral drugs separation. The research direction and development trend of simulated moving bed chromatography are prospected.
