Synergy between Sulfonic Functions and Ru Nanoparticles Supported on Activated Carbon for the Valorization of Cellulose into Sorbitol

The production of sorbitol from biomass, and especially from its cellulosic component, has been studied as a sustainable method for producing platform molecules. Because it requires two steps, namely, hydrolysis and hydrogenation, bifunctional materials are required as catalysts for this transformat...
