Furfural and hydroxymethylfurfural are promising platform molecules for manufacturing
chemicals and fuel components. These furanic compounds are the product of the acid …

Within the last decade, interest in using biphasic systems for producing furans from biomass
has grown significantly. Biphasic systems continuously extract furans into the organic phase …

The production of value-added chemicals from renewable sources, such as biomass-
derived carbohydrates, is an emerging field. The amount of publications in the field of …

Furan derivatives, such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and furfural, obtained from
renewable biomass-derived carbohydrates have potential to be sustainable substitutes for …

Recently, the production of furan derivatives from sugars has become exciting in chemistry

We present here the results of an investigation aimed at identifying catalysts for the
dehydration of glucose and xylose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and furfural in a …

Furans represent one of the most important classes of intermediates in the conversion of non-
edible lignocellulosic biomass into bio-based chemicals and fuels. At present, bio-furan …

Furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) have been identified as promising bio-platform
furans that have a wide range of potential applications as biofuels, bioplastics, and …

Recently, there has been growing interest in the transformation of renewable biomass into
value-added chemicals and biofuels. Among them, furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural …

Furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), the two typical biomass-derived furans, can be
converted into biofuels and value-added chemicals via hydrogenation or acid catalysis or …
