Reaping hydrogen energy by utilising eternal sunlight offers a good fit to the theme of
popularly-hype sustainable and carbon-free energy future. Contrary to that belief, this review …

We report a process for converting fructose, at a high concentration (15 weight%), to 2, 5-
furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), a monomer used in the production of polyethylene furanoate …

The production of renewable chemicals and biofuels must be cost-and performance-
competitive with petroleum-derived equivalents to be widely accepted by markets and …

Abstract Gamma-valerolactone (GVL), which is accessible from renewable lignocellulosic
biomass, has been identified as one of the most promising platforms for the sustainable …

Lignocellulosic biomass, the key structural constituent of plants, is composed of three major
components, including cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. It is considered to be one of the …

This review presents an overview of the initial targeted chemical processing stages for
conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to platform molecules that serve as intermediates for …

Mono-functional catalytic materials are used for many types of chemical transformations, but
are tedious for delivering products from multiple-step reactions required for the valorization …

The importance of ethyl levulinate (EL) as a fuel additive and a potential biomass-derived
platform molecule is noteworthy. EL is obtained from the esterification of levulinic acid (LA) …
