Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Topic is a continuation of the previous successful Topic “Advances in Biomass Conversion”.

Biomass is one of the most promising renewable sources of value-added chemicals. Despite sustainable character of biomass conversion processes, their competitiveness in relation to the traditional methods of production of valuable chemical compounds is still disputable. Therefore, it is especially important to expand research focused on the development of the efficient and low-cost processing of this type of feedstock.

This Topic is devoted to the development of new technologies of biomass conversion to value-added chemicals. It is concerned with, but not limited to, the design of new catalysts, optimization of reaction conditions, application of biomass pretreatment and development of multiple processes in modern biorefineries. Research on the mechanisms of the reactions as well as the determination of the products of biomass valorization and characterization of the feedstock are also welcome. Moreover, papers that address these issues from other perspectives but still within the broad range of research applications of the main topic fields are also encouraged.
