Selective Conversion of Furfural to Maleic Anhydride and Furan with VOx/Al2O3 Catalysts
TL;DR: The alternative approach enables the use of biomass instead of petroleum to synthesize maleic anhydride and furan from furfural using VO(x)/Al(2)O(3) (10 at(V) nm(-2)) as solid catalysts.

Hydrolysis of Microcrystalline Cellulose in Subcritical and Supercritical Water in a Continuous Flow Reactor
Sandeep Kumar,Ram B. Gupta +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method to maximize the yield of cellulose hydrolysis in subcritical and supercritical water at practically achievable reaction times by treating microcrystalline cellulose in a temperature range of 302−405 °C, at a pressure of 27.6 MPa and residence times of 2.5−8.1 s.
