Experimental and Modeling Studies on the Conversion of Inulin to 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural Using Metal Salts in Water
(2016-08-31)
Inulin, a plant polysaccharide consisting of mainly D-fructose units, is considered
an interesting feed for 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), a top 12 bio-based chemical. We
here report an exploratory experimental study on ...
Experimental and modelling studies on the uncatalysed thermal conversion of inulin to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and levulinic acid
(2016-08-31)
Background: 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), an important biobased platform chemical, is accessible by the acid
catalysed conversion of biopolymers containing hexoses (cellulose, starch, inulin) and monomeric sugars ...
An Experimental Study on Thermal Catalytic Decomposition of Inulin to 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural and Levulinic Acid and Effect of C6 on Furfural During Decomposition Process
(2019-04-30)
The attractive biobased platform chemicals, 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and Levulinic Acid (LA), are
commonly produced by the conversion of monomeric sugars. However, a polymeric sugar such as inulin shows
promising. ...
