Hydrothermal Treatment of Cellulose in Hot-Pressurized Water for the Production of Levulinic Acid

<p class="Abstract">In this paper, hot-pressurized water, operating above boiling point and below critical point of water (374. 15 °C and 22.1 MPa), was used as a reaction medium for the decomposition of cellulose to high-value chemicals, such levulinic acid. Effects of reaction temp...
