  1. 21. Farm to furan derivatives : Fractionation of agricultural residues and transformation of sugars to chemical building blocks

    Författare :Sara Jonsdottir Glaser; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; biorefinery; sugar beet pulp; wheat bran; agricultural residue; biomass valorisation; fractionation; bio-based platform chemicals; HMF; levulinic acid; heterogeneous catalysis; whole-cell catalysis;

    Sammanfattning : The transition of industrial production from petrochemistry to a more sustainable economy requires the use of carbon neutral, renewable feedstock, which does not compete with food and feed supplies – by-products of farming and agro-food industry offer this possibility. With a limited range of low-value applications today coupled with the need for maximal utilisation of resources, the by-products of farming can be repurposed as feedstock for biorefineries. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Surface reactions and chemical bonding in heterogeneous catalysis

    Författare :Henrik Öberg; Lars G. M. Pettersson; Philippe Sautet; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; kemisk fysik; Chemical Physics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis summarizes studies which focus on addressing, using both theoretical and experimental methods, fundamental questions about surface phenomena, such as chemical reactions and bonding, related to processes in heterogeneous catalysis. The main focus is on the theoretical approach and this aspect of the results. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Transition Metal-Catalyzed Redox Reactions : A Journey from Homogeneous Ruthenium to Heterogeneous Palladium Catalysis

    Författare :Oscar Verho; Jan-Erling Bäckvall; Manfred Reetz; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The first part of the thesis covers the development and utilization of electronically modified (pentaarylcyclopentadienyl)Ru-complexes in the racemization of secondary alcohols. This study revealed that the electronic properties of the substrate were the main factors dictating whether β-hydride elimination or hydride re-addition becomes the rate-determining step of the racemization process.

  5. 25. Formic and Levulinic Acid from Cellulose via Heterogeneous Catalysis

    Författare :Johan Ahlkvist; Jyri-Pekka Mikkola; Riitta Keiski; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Levulinic acid; formic acid; Amberlyst 70;

    Sammanfattning : The chemical industry of today is under increased pressure to develop novel green materials, bio-fuels as well as sustainable chemicals for the chemical industry. Indeed, the endeavour is to move towards more eco-friendly cost efficient production processes and technologies and chemical transformation of renewables has a central role considering the future sustainable supply of chemicals and energy needed for societies.
