Chemo-catalytic concepts for biomass conversion to bio-chemicals: a way towards innovative catalytic technologies for a future sustainable economy
The lecture will focus on relevant chemo-catalytic concepts and proposed strategies for the development of innovative catalytic technologies devoted to the production of chemicals from lignocellulose derived compounds. Within this framework, it will be explored (i) the current approaches utilized in the selection of biomass conversion pathways for chemicals; (ii) required operating conditions for processing bio-based feedstocks; (iii) designed features for efficient nanostructured catalysts; and (iv) emerging reactors and separations approaches.
