“…Starch is widely present in cassava, potatoes, yams, taros, and rice, and it can be used to produce beer and in the sugar industry (glucose and maltose) [6]. Among the numerous platform compounds of biomass conversion, glucose is an important platform compound that can be further converted into downstream products such as fructose, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, pyruvic acid, sorbitol, ethylene glycol, etc., and is widely used in industries such as chemicals, food, medicine, and energy [7][8][9].
