5-HMF production from industrial grade sugar syrups derived from corn and wood using niobium phosphate catalyst in a biphasic continuous-flow tubular reactor

Sadra Souzanchi et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated the use of industrial-grade sugar syrups derived from corn and wood as cost-effective and competitive feedstocks for 5-HMF production. The catalyst used showed stability and could be regenerated in-situ, although it resulted in slightly lower glucose conversion and reduced 5-HMF yield compared to the fresh catalyst. The humins produced during the reaction exhibited high aromaticity and contained a high degree of unsaturated compounds.

A review of bio-refining process intensification in catalytic conversion reactions, separations and purifications of hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and furfural

Jernej Slak et al.

Summary: This review explores the utilization of process intensification (PI) techniques in the biorefining industry for 5-HMF and FUR production and purification, highlighting the potential of reactive extraction in microreactors and other approaches. While mineral acid-catalyzed aqueous systems yield the highest product yields, their purification and recycling are costly and laborious. Solid-acid catalysts in biphasic solvent systems show promise, with NaCl improving extraction power and selectivity. The pervaporation assisted continuous membrane reactor holds potential for large-scale FUR production.

Summary: Replacement of fossil fuels can be achieved by using bio-based procedures to produce fine chemicals. The microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was selected for its ability to accumulate starch, which provides an environmentally-friendly alternative source of chemical building blocks. The study optimized the hydrolysis conditions of algal biomass to produce lipophilic coproducts. The results showed that Chlamydomonas can be used as a sustainable feedstock for the simultaneous production of high-added value lipophilic compounds and platform chemicals.

Conversion of Cellulose into 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural in a Biphasic System Catalyzed by Aluminum Sulfate and Byproduct Characterization

Ning Shi et al.

Summary: This study comprehensively investigated the influence of catalyst type, organic solvent type and ratio, and other factors on the conversion of cellulose into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). The highest HMF yield was obtained when using the H2O-THF-Al-2(SO4)(3) biphasic system. Further investigation revealed that the excellent performance of this system was due to its high surface area, high concentration, and low solubility. Additionally, the presence of initial polymers was detected using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.

Hydrothermal conversion of microalgae Chlorella sp. into 5-hydroxyme-thylfurfural and levulinic acid by metal sulfate catalyst

Gwi-Taek Jeong et al.

Summary: Microalgae can be used as renewable and sustainable bioresources to substitute fossil fuels and chemicals. In this study, a thermochemical reaction with metal-sulfate catalyst was used to convert Chlorella sp. into 5-HMF and LA, with optimization of conversion conditions leading to high yields of both chemicals. The relationship between severity factor, 5-HMF/LA yields, and non-linear sigmoidal equations with high regression indicate the potential and accessibility of microalgae and metal-salt catalyst in producing platform chemicals.
