Catalytic fast pyrolysis of cellulose and biomass to produce levoglucosenone using magnetic SO4(2-)/TiO2-Fe3O4.

Bioresour. Technol. 171 , 10-15, (2014)

Magnetic superacid (SO4(2-)/TiO2-Fe3O4) was prepared for catalytic fast pyrolysis of cellulose and poplar wood to produce levoglucosenone (LGO). Its catalytic activity was evaluated via pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) experiments, an...
