Optimization of biomass conversion to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural by catalytic hot compressed water and ionic liquid processes

A versatile compound to replace petroleum-based compound for generating fuel and fine chemicals, 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), was derived from biomass in this study. Catalytic hot compressed water (HCW) and ionic liquid processeswere investigated for HMF production from glucose.Anatase titanium di...
