Mass transfer in membrane contactors for separating levulinic acid, formic acid, and furfural from biomass hydrolysate with physical organic solvents

Levulinic acid (LA), formic acid (FA), and furfural were separated from an aqueous solution using membrane contactors with organic solvents. The aqueous mixture, simulating LA production's biomass hydrolysate from, contained 7 ​% LA, 3 ​% FA, and 4 ​% FF by weight. The mass transfer coefficient...
