REACTION PATHWAYS AND MECHANISMS IN THERMOCATAL...

Volume I mainly focuses on the current understanding of the reaction pathways and mechanisms
involved in several important catalytic conversions of cellulose and carbohydrates. It starts
with nanoscale illustrations of biomass structures and describes various reactions including
cellulose depolymerization to sugars  catalytic aldose-ketose isomerization and dehydration 
selective oxidation  hydrogenolysis of cellulose and sugars  and the conversion of short
carbohydrates. The specificity and function of different catalysts and reaction media in
relation to the catalytic performances for these reactions are discussed with significant
mechanistic details. Marcel Schlaf  PhD  is a Professor at the Department of Chemistry 
University of Guelph  Canada. Z. Conrad Zhang  PhD  is a Professor at the Dalian Institute of
Chemical Physics  Chinese Academy of Sciences  China.
