(146b) Modern Catalytic Technologies for Converting Biomass to Renewable Fuels and Chemicals

Authors 

Vlachos, D. G. - Presenter, University of Delaware

In this talk, an overview of modern catalytic-based technologies will be presented that may overcome challenges of traditional methods in converting biomass to renewable fuels and chemicals. Diels-Alders and dehydration chemistry will be outlined toward the production of renewable aromatics, such as para-xylene.
