The four most prominent forms of biomass are cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin and chitin. In efforts to develop sustainable sources of platform molecules there has been an increasing focus on examining how these biopolymers could be exploited as feedstocks that support the chemical supply chain, including in the production of fine chemicals. Many different approaches are possible and some of the ones being developed in the authors' laboratories are emphasised.
四种最主要的生物质形式是纤维素、半纤维素、木质素和壳聚糖。为了开发可持续的平台分子来源，人们越来越关注如何利用这些生物聚合物作为支持化学供应链的原料，包括精细化学品的生产。有许多不同的方法可供选择，作者实验室正在强调其中一些正在开发的方法。
