“…Other studies in the literature 25,26 have also reported low yield-5-HMF (< 5.0%)-due to residual biomass use. Review studies 26 have adopted high temperatures (140-270 °C) and short reaction times (10-40 min) and recorded 5-HMF yield ranging from 2.4 to 4.9% for sugarcane bagasse, 25 maple wood, 27 wheat straw 28 and vegetable waste. 29 According to Nguyen et al 30 the recalcitrant and heterogeneous features of raw lignocellulosic materials have resulted in low 5-HMF.…”

The aims of the current study are to investigate the composition of biomass from baru processing and to explore the feasibility of valuing it through the development of bioproducts such as fermentable sugars, furanics and biochar. Baru (Dipteryx alata Vog.) waste (endocarp and mesocarp) has great energetic potential to produce bioproducts due to its chemical composition. Proximate analyses applied to such waste have found low favorable moisture and ash content in it. Bioproduct characterizations after acid hydrolysis have shown that baru endocarp and mesocarp biomass can enable a range of value-added products in biorefinery concepts such as furfural and 5-hydroximetylfurfural (20.0 and 1.5% yield, respectively), and high sugar content (approximately 19.15 and 38.40%, respectively). Pyrolysis processes also present high biochar content (ca. 48%), with satisfactory characteristics to be used as fuel, as well as calorific value higher than 30 kJ g-1 .

The present paper reviews recent advances on the direct synthesis of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from different kinds of raw biomasses. In particular, in the paper HMF production from: (i) edible biomasses; (ii) non-edible lignocellulosic biomasses; (iii) food wastes (FW) have been reviewed. The different processes and catalytic systems have been reviewed and their merits, demerits and requirements for commercialisation outlined.

“…These yields were similar to those obtained with AlCl 3 /HCl in this work. Iryami et al 39 studied sugarcane bagasse hydrolysis and dehydration using a hydrothermal pretreatment at high temperatures. HMF yields of 3.09% were achieved at 270 °C for 10 min, which was much lower than the results obtained in this work for both catalytic systems using a milder reaction temperature of 180 °C.…”

In this work, two catalytic systems combining Lewis and Brønsted acids (ZnCl 2 /HCl and AlCl 3 /HCl) were applied in a tetrahydrofuran (THF)/NaCl aq biphasic system to produce furan compounds from plant polysaccharides. The following cellulosic matrices were applied for this purpose: α-cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose and both native and steam-exploded sugarcane bagasse. The AlCl 3 /HCl catalytic system afforded the best yields for α-cellulose conversion to furan compounds (hydrolysis followed by dehydration). The highest yields of 5-(hydroxymethyl)-furfural (HMF) and furfural were 44.0 and 92.2% for AlCl 3 /HCl and 36.5 and 81.4% for ZnCl 2 /HCl, respectively. Cellulosic materials with lower crystallinity indexes afforded the best performance in hydrolysis followed by dehydration, giving relatively high yields of HMF and furfural. The HMF yields were similar for both native and steam-exploded sugarcane bagasse and the presence of lignin had a negative effect on HMF production. The highest furfural yield from native sugarcane bagasse was 60.6% with AlCl 3 /HCl catalytic system.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) defines biorefinery as the sustainable processing of biomass into a spectrum of products to be marketed as food, chemicals and supplies. In another definition, the American National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) describes biorefinery as a facility that integrates equipment and processes for biomass conversion into fuels, energy and chemicals for industry. 1,2Sugarcane bagasse is an important agro-industrial byproduct for biorefining because large amounts are readily available at low cost in sugarcane-processing industrial facilities such as autonomous distilleries and sugar mills. Sugarcane bagasse is majorly composed of glucans (mostly cellulose), hemicelluloses (mostly xylans) and lignin and these macromolecular components are involved in a strong chemical association that reduces its accessibility to chemical conversion. 4 Different forms of pretreatment can break this strong association and increase the chemical accessibility of cane bagasse polysaccharides. One of the most interesting pretreatment technique is steam explosion, which combines chemical and physical processes to deconstruct the plant cell wall associative structure. 5,6 For this, the biomass is treated with saturated steam at temperatures between 170-230 °C for 2 to 30 min in the absence or presence of an exogenous catalyst. 7 The main feature of steam explosion is the total or partial acid hydrolysis of hemicelluloses to produce mono and oligosaccharides, which are intermediate chemicals for a variety of value-added products. In addition, changes in the lignin structure occur primarily due to the acid hydrolysis of aril-ether linkages, while both xylan and glucan degree of polymerization is decreas...
