Organic acid catalyzed production of platform chemical 5-hydroxymethylfurfural from fructose: Process comparison and evaluation based on kinetic modeling

Fructose was converted to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), an important biomass-derived platform chemical, under mild conditions (100–130 °C) with several organic acids including p-toluene sulfonic (pTSA), oxalic, maleic, malonic and succinic acids as the catalysts. The process kinetics was compared c...
