Various recycling technologies have been developed to deal with plastic problems, but they face considerable economic and technological challenges in practice. An attractive alternative is upcycling, which aims dig out the embedded value incentivize large-scale valorization of wastes. The degradation nonrecoverable wastes another necessity treat omnipresent pollution. This review presents an overview on conversion toward value-added products catalytic Based examination traditional products,...

Production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from cellulose has been expected for a long time, but most catalytic systems generally give low yield and selectivity due to the difficulty balancing deconstruction with uncontrollable degradation target product under harsh conditions. Here we show that ball milling pretreatment could markedly facilitate conversion microcrystalline HMF by titanyl sulfate (TiOSO4). The remarkably decreases degree crystallinity reduction molecular weight via...

Brønsted base catalyzed isomerization of glucose toward fructose is on the rise due to high value and versatility in biorefinery. Herein, we report discovery alkali- alkaline-earth-metal-doped carbon nitride (C3N4) as catalysts for selective fructose. The characterizations proved that introducing a small quantity alkali alkaline-earth metals into C3N4 can remarkably improve amount strong basic sites. Among tested materials, Mg-doped afforded an excellent yield (>32%) selectivity (>84%) from...

Reaction efficiencies of biorefinery processes are universally low because the severe side reactions at high substrate loading. Here, we show that use Sn-modified Al2O3 catalyst in ionic liquid EMIMBr enables efficient conversion glucose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) loading up 35 wt %, with HMF production rate exceeding previous reported catalytic systems. The introduction a small quantity Sn species could improve their Lewis acid amount and surface area but not result increase Brønsted...

The catalytic oxidation of HMF involves a cascading reaction with multiple intermediate products, making it crucial to enhance the oriented adsorption capacity specific functional groups for accelerating entire process. To achieve efficient selective FDCA, series NiCo2O4 catalysts different morphologies, such as flaky, echinoids, pompon and corolla, were prepared characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, BET, XPS, FTIR. Among four catalysts, flaky exhibited most excellent activity stability, FDCA...

Furfural is a versatile platform molecule for the synthesis of various chemicals and fuels, it can be produced by acid-catalyzed dehydration xylose derived from renewable biomass resources. A series metal salts ionic liquids were investigated to obtain best combination catalyst solvent conversion into furfural. furfural yield 71.1% was obtained at high loading (20 wt%) single-phasic reaction system whereby SnCl4 used as liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide (EMIMBr) medium. Moreover,...
