Don’t miss the chance to register for the HCl Gas: A Versatile Catalyst for Retrieving Nanocellulose and Sugars form Biomass webinar held Tuesday, April 26th 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM (ET).
Modern technology is needed in terms of evolution: while acid hydrolysis can be seen as an outdated or, at best, traditional means of degrading cellulose into nanocrystals or sugars, the use of HCl gas has demonstrated viable, modern pathways to added value products from biomass. This webinar summarizes the application of HCl gas on diverse cellulosic substrates, including various cellulose polymorphs, solid wood, bacterial cellulose, holocellulose, and agricultural residues. Processes leading directly into high yields of nanocrystals are presented.
Over the course of this Nanotechnology webinar, Eero Kontturi of Aalto University (Finland) will:
