Enhanced Hydrolysis of Cellulose in Ionic Liquid Using Mesoporous ZSM-5

Mesoporous ZSM-5 prepared by alkaline treatment was demonstrated as an efficient catalyst for the cellulose hydrolysis in ionic liquid (IL), affording a high yield of reducing sugar. It was demonstrated that mesoporous ZSM-5 (SiO2/Al2O3 = 38) had 76.2% cellulose conversion and 49.6% yield of total r...
