Producing high-value chemicals based on renewable alternatives -biomass resources is vital for the climate and a sustainable economy. This project will develop a unique nano-engineering approach to design hierarchical catalysts for the selective conversion of biomass into tailor-made products. Advanced in situ spectroscopic techniques will be employed to establish the structure-reactivity relationship of working catalysts and thereby manipulate the key factors governing the activity/selectivity. Such cutting-edge knowledge gained is crucial for optimising process efficiency and resource utilisation, which is essential for the success of the biorefining industry and a more environmentally-friendly chemical economy in Australia.

基于可再生替代品生产高价值化学品-生物质资源对气候和可持续经济至关重要。该项目将开发一种独特的纳米工程方法来设计分级催化剂，用于将生物质选择性转化为定制产品。先进的原位光谱技术将用于建立工作催化剂的结构-反应性关系，从而操纵控制活性/选择性的关键因素。获得的这些前沿知识对于优化工艺效率和资源利用至关重要，这对于澳大利亚生物精炼行业的成功和更环保的化学经济至关重要。
