Reaction Engineering Implications of Using Water for the Conversion of Lignocellulosic Biomass

Conversion of lignocellulosic biomass via hydrolysis of cellulose to simple sugars has failed to achieve economic competitiveness to produce renewable fuels and chemicals partly due to the inherent recalcitrance of the substrate and partly due to the use of non-recyclable catalysts. Solid acids have...
