Effective utilization of biomass, hitherto underutilized, is gaining tremendous importance for the production of energy, fuels, and chemicals. Amongst the vast array of chemicals derived from lignocellulosics, furfural is the key chemical that finds wide applications in oil refining, plastics, pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. There is no synthetic route for the production of furfural. A few conventional technologies currently in practice for its separation and subsequent isolation are appropriately reviewed. Major disadvantages associated with processes currently used for the production of furfural based on acid-catalyzed hydrolysis have been discussed. A need to develop a process which is devoid of all the shortcomings associated with conventional process is emphasized. Several important aspects of chemistry underlying the acid hydrolysis of xylose are discussed. The importance of myriad pre-treatment steps involved to surmount the physical and chemical barriers and to liberate xylose from the confines of acid-resistant layer of lignin has been emphasized. New developments in the production of furfural from cyclodehydration of xylose using solid acid catalysts in the recent past have been reviewed appropriately in present communication. Finally, the production of furfural and furfuryl alcohol, their domestic market and export in China deserve some coverage and therefore have appropriately been discussed as well.

These catalysts were active even at room temperature (25 degrees C). While the Pt catalysts were selective for C=O hydrogenation (yielding furfuryl alcohol), Pd facilitated ring hydrogenation (producing tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol). At high temperature (240 degrees C), the Pd catalyst exhibited excellent decarbonylation activity forming furan with 85% yield. The catalyst was reusable even in the absence of external hydrogen. The presence of hydrogen led to ring-opened products. Furan was quantitatively converted at 25 degrees C to tetrahydrofuran. Acidity of the support made a marked influence on the activity and selectivity. Pt on SO4-ZrO2 favored hydrogenolysis yielding 2-methyl furan along with furan with &amp;gt;75 wt% selectivity. Particle size, metal dispersion, and solvent influenced catalytic activity. Differences in structure and mode of furfural adsorption were also the causes for variations in selectivity of these supported Pt and Pd catalysts. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc.

In this study, the effects of various components (Si, Al and P) and crystallization time on the preparation of acidic materials and their properties are extensively described. It is seen that with the increase in crystallization time (0, 48, 96, 176 h) during the synthesis of silicoaluminophosphate (SAPO-44), materials morphology changes from amorphous to AFI to CHA and the best activity for furfural synthesis (82%) from xylan was observed with SAPO-44 catalyst aged for 176 h. Since, acidity in the SAPO-44 is guided by the incorporation of Si in the ALPO framework, study on Si molar concentration (0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.4 and 1.6) in SAPO-44 was carried out and it was observed that SAPO-44 having 1.0 mole of Si content is the best catalyst for the xylan/xylose conversion to furfural. Catalyst structure-activity correlation is thoroughly defined with the help of several physico-chemical properties. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

The surface and structural properties of the catalysts were deeply investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), N-2 adsorption isotherms (BET), Infrared spectroscopy (IR), and acid capacity measurements. XPS studies revealed that Ti doped supports had higher dispersion of the active phase, particularly in the case of Pd-Au materials in which Ti played an important role in stabilizing the metallic species. Among the various process conditions studied, such as temperature (160 degrees C), catalyst amount (10% w/w), and reaction time (5 h), H-2 pressure (500 psi) was found to improve the 1,2-pentanediol selectivity. The SBA silica bimetallic Ti-doped system showed the best performance in terms of stability and reusability, after multiple cycles.

In the present study, among several carbon supported bimetallic Ir-Ni catalysts with different loadings screened, 4% Ir-4% Ni/C catalyst showed excellent activity in terms of direct conversion (99%) to 2-MeTHF with a maximum selectivity of similar to 74% at 220 degrees C and 750 psig, suppressing the formation of side chain as well as ring opening products. The catalytic activity was found to be mainly affected by catalyst preparation methods, metal loadings, surface composition, temperature, pressure and catalyst loading. HR-TEM and STEM revealed well dispersed Ir-Ni NPs having the particle sizes in the range of 2 to 5 nm. Different phases of Ir i. e. Ir degrees and IrO(2)as well as oxygen vacancies were found to be responsible for hydrogenation of furfural to 2-methyl furan while, Ni degrees and NiO were responsible for further hydrogenation to 2-MeTHF. The synergic effect between Ir and Ni was established through XPS, H-2-TPR analysis. With the help of some control experiments, the plausible reaction pathway was also proposed. The catalyst prepared by co-impregnation method found more effective than prepared by sequential addition method. At lower Ni loadings of 1% and 2%, low temperature of 160 degrees C as well as at low H(2)pressure of 250 psig, mixture of furfuryl alcohol and 2-methyl furan were formed selectively. Catalyst could be successfully reused up to 3 times without leaching of metals.&lt;/p&gt;

	The valorization of C5 sugars (xylose) from hemicellulose of agro-industrial residues to xylitol, as one of the multi-products biorefinery approach, mandates the pretreatment of biomass which releases fermentable sugars along with the generation of biological inhibitors affecting xylitol fermentation. This study was therefore evaluated to understand the inhibitory kinetics of furfural, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and acetic acid on xylitol fermentation. Xylitol fermentation was established using Pichia stipitis NCIM 3497 with xylose as a pure substrate optimized for xylitol yield and productivity of 0.48 g/g of xylose and 0.13 g/L/h, respectively. The functional relationship of yeast specific growth rate and limiting substrate (xylose) was expressed by Monod-type kinetics. The inhibition kinetics results indicated that the effect of inhibitors on xylitol fermentation was furfural &amp;gt; acetic acid &amp;gt; HMF. Furfural (500 mg/L) and acetic acid (1000 mg/L) reduced xylitol yield by 59% and 44%, respectively, with least reduction of 9.89% exhibited by HMF. The synergistic effect of 500 mg/L furfural, 500 mg/L HMF and 1000 mg/L acetic acid showed the highest reduction in xylitol yield of 67.6% as compared to the control. Kinetic studies predicted that the maximum concentration of furfural, HMF and acetic acid which inhibited P. stipitis growth was 884 mg/L, 3258 mg/L and 2922 mg/L, respectively, whereas xylitol production was completely inhibited at 1069 mg/L furfural, 3498 mg/L HMF and 3714 mg/L acetic acid. Furfural and acetic acid were found to be a competitive inhibitor, while uncompetitive inhibition was observed with HMF indicating negligible effect on xylitol fermentation.&lt;/p&gt;

	Nickel supported on organoclay prepared by the impregnation method provides excellent catalytic activity for the hydrogenation of furfural to tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol. The relative amount of metal and acidic sites influences the hydrogenation reaction. Additionally, by varying the temperature and the H-2 pressure, we can regulate the interaction of furfural with the active sites. And this may decide the fate of the reaction whether it will undergo a two-step hydrogenation to form tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol or a rearrangement reaction to form cyclopentanone/cyclopentanol. Water was found to be the best solvent for the selective formation of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol. Even though alcohols inhibited rearrangement reaction, the hydrogenation of furfural was more selective towards furfuryl alcohol. Ni/O-clay30A under the optimum conditions of 120 degrees C, 4.0 MPa, and in 1 h offered complete conversion of furfural to tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol.&lt;/p&gt;

	2-Methylfuran is a perfect green solution on the pathway of finding alternative fuels. We report here for the first time the continuous production of 2-methylfuran (2-MF), a sustainable biofuel from biomass-derived furfural (FFA), over an industrial Cu-ZnO-Al2O3 (CZA) catalyst. The modified coprecipitation method provides a uniformly dispersed crystalline structure to the synthesized catalysts, along with intended copper (Cu) loading achievement. Different Cu loadings affect the catalytic behavior and activity. Hence, CZA catalysts with two Cu loadings of 9.8 and 4.7% were studied in detail, denoted as C1 and C2, respectively. The catalysts were characterized via XRD, N-2 adsorption, H-2-TPR, NH3-TPD, XPS, ICP-MS, and TEM. Remarkably, the prepared catalysts demonstrate balanced acid sites with mesopores, a high surface area and pore volume, and better controlled nanoparticle size promoting catalytic activity. TEM and H-2-TPR studies reveal a better Cu dispersion. Existence of Cu2+ and Cu (+) even after reduction by XPS study proves the efficiency of the synthesized catalysts. Furthermore, TGA indicates the stability of CZA catalysts. To understand catalytic activity and selectivity, the investigation was carried out in a packed-bed fixed-bed stainless steel reactor. Better physiochemical properties result in high FFA conversion of 33.8% and selectivity of 99.6% for 2-MF. No side products were formed during reaction otherwise improbable via the continuous method. Compared with available literature, the CZA catalyst was found to exhibit superior catalytic performance. The reaction kinetics of furfural hydrogenation to 2-methylfuran was investigated, and it was found that the reaction order is high, and the activation energy was 61.2 kJ/mol. The rate constant k clearly obeyed the Arrhenius law from 180 to 220 degrees C. In addition, evaluation of reaction kinetics also indicated the absence of ring hydrogenation and decarbonylation products, which is difficult to achieve. Finally, the process shows significant economic viability, which resulted in the minimum levelized production cost for 2-methylfuran of 173,068.16 \$/ton with 78.32% overall energy efficiency.&lt;/p&gt;

	Furfural dialkyl acetals prepared via acetalization reaction of furfural and alcohols are promising biofuels. Using defined experiments and density functional theory (DFT) simulations, the structure-dependent activity and selectivity for furfural acetalization reaction in the presence of alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol) as solvents was studied over well-defined supported Pd nanostructures (octahedra (111), cubes (100) and spheres (both (111) and (100)). Pd cubes supported over TiO2 in the presence of ethanol as a solvent (at 303 K and balloon pressure H-2) exhibited 78 % conversion and 100 % selectivity for furfural diethyl acetal product in a short time (similar to 180 min). In contrast, Pd octahedra (111) and Pd spheres showed low conversions (18 % and 6 %) at the same reaction conditions. Interestingly, when used as a solvent, methanol showed the highest conversion (90 %) and selectivity (100 %) for furfural acetalization over Pd cubes. DFT simulations provided mechanistic insight into the reactivity of the two different Pd facets (111) and (100) in the presence of alcohol molecules towards furfural acetalization reaction. A three-step reaction mechanism was proposed for furfural acetalization with alcohols: (i) alcohol hydroxyl-dehydrogenation (ii) hydrogenation of furfural carbonyl oxygen, and (iii) formation of hemiacetal product. For all three steps, Pd (100) exhibited low activation barriers (51.6, 26.7 and 76.2 kJ/mol) compared to Pd (111) surface (78.6, 35.8 and 92.2 kJ/mol) in the presence of ethanol. The activation barriers for the above steps were further reduced to 47.8, 23.9 and 64.6 kJ/mol on Pd (100) in the presence of methanol, explaining the experimental high reactivity aided by methanol. DFT calculations elucidated the role of the hydrogen bonding network between the solvent molecules and adsorbate, enabling proton-coupled electron transfer for accelerated reactions.&lt;/p&gt;
