Catalytic Degradation of Cellulose

Nowadays, exploitation for energy has become an urgent matter with the advent of global energy crisis. Cellulose is a renewable organic biomass, and has turned out to be an important position due to its abundant resources and catalytic conversion into valuable industrial chemicals under different degradation processes by using catalysts. This book presented the pretreatments, reaction media, catalysts and applications for catalytic degradation of cellulose.
