In this series of articles, the board members of ChemSusChem discuss recent research that they consider of exceptional quality and importance for sustainability. In this contribution, Prof. Regina Palkovits describes some recent advances in heterogeneous catalytic transformations of lignocellulosic feedstocks into biofuels. While the recent works she highlights are of great significance, challenges with regard to catalyst stability, the associated deactivation mechanisms, and designs for aqueous-phase reactions remain.
在这一系列文章中，《化学可持续发展》的编委们讨论了他们认为对可持续发展具有卓越质量和重要性的近期研究。在本稿件中，雷吉娜·帕尔科维茨教授描述了木质纤维素原料多相催化转化为生物燃料的一些最新进展。虽然她所强调的近期工作具有重大意义，但在催化剂稳定性、相关失活机制以及水相反应设计方面仍存在挑战。
