Journal ArticleDOI
The conversion of lignocellulosics to levulinic acid
TL;DR: A review of the chemistry of levulinic acid synthesis from lignocellulosics can be found in this paper, where the authors discuss current and potential technologies for producing ligninic acid from biomass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organosolv pretreatment of plant biomass for enhanced enzymatic saccharification
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison between organosolv pretreatments utilizing broadly different classes of solvents (i.e., low boiling point, high boiling point and biphasic) is presented, with a focus on solvent recovery and formation of byproducts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methanesulfonic acid-catalyzed conversion of glucose and xylose mixtures to levulinic acid and furfural
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stage processing strategy is proposed to target high levulinic acid and furfural yields, and other chemical products (e.g. lactic acid, xylitol, acetic acid and formic acid).
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural Characteristics of Bagasse Furfural Residue and Its Lignin Component. An NMR, Py-GC/MS, and FTIR Study

TL;DR: In this paper, structural features of bagasse furfural residue and the lignins extracted from it by three NaOH treatments have been studied in order to understand the transformations that occurred by these treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conversion of Sugar Cane Molasses to 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural Using Molasses and Bagasse-Derived Catalysts
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the hydrolysis of mixtures of sucrose, glucose and fructose (synthetic sugar cane molasses) and industrial molasses using sulfonated carbon-based heterogeneous catalysts derived from sugar cane bagasse (B-SO3H) and sugar cane mixtures (M-SO 3H).
