Abstract

The current global mass consumption of non-renewable fossil fuels is forcing academic and industrial scientists to find alternative sustainable resources.[1] The transformation of biomass into fuels and value-added chemicals [2] could be crucial to this endeavour and has been a strong research focus in recent years. Carbohydrates, the main component of biomass, could be converted into many chemicals such as ethanol, hydroxymethylfurfural ...
