项目摘要

This award is to support a one-day mini-symposium on November 1, 2017, which will be held in conjunction with the AIChE Annual Meeting in Minneapolis, MN. The objective of this mini-symposium is to create a unique environment to allow the interactions of prominent researchers who work in the field of thermal deconstruction of biomass materials for producing novel biorenewable fuels. This mini-symposium will feature three sessions of invited speakers and a poster reception, featuring relevant research of graduate students. The three oral sessions, each consisting of talks by five invited speakers are: 1) Pathways to thermal deconstruction, 2) Fundamentals of thermal deconstruction, and 3) Upgrading products from thermal deconstruction. The funding will partially support the participation of the fifteen invited speakers and the young scientists presenting at the poster reception.Thermal deconstruction is an intriguing new approach to fractionating lignocellulose biomass into components suitable for upgrading into biobased products. The use of heat to fractionate and depolymerize plant biopolymers into solubilized carbohydrate and lignin-derived phenolic monomers has often been overlooked or even dismissed in the field of biofuels and biobased products. Its practitioners often self-segregate because they fail to recognize commonalities among the phenomena they study. Even less common are interactions and collaborations among those who thermally deconstruct biomass and those who depend upon deconstructed biomass as substrates for bioprocessing. To date, there has been no forum to bring together researchers who are pioneering thermal deconstruction as well as those who seek new sources of bioprocessing substrates. This mini-symposium will provide an excellent opportunity to bring experts together to address this important research field, which will have a significant impact on the development of the renewable energy technology.

该奖项将支持于2017年11月1日在明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯举行的AIChE年会期间举行的为期一天的小型研讨会。这次小型研讨会的目的是创造一个独特的环境，让在生物质材料热解构领域工作的杰出研究人员进行互动，以生产新型生物可再生燃料。这次小型研讨会将举办三场特邀演讲和海报招待会，介绍研究生的相关研究。三个口头会议，每个会议由五位特邀演讲者组成：1)热解构的途径，2)热解构的基础，以及3)热解构的产品升级。这笔资金将部分支持15位受邀演讲者和参加海报招待会的年轻科学家的参与。热解构是一种有趣的新方法，将木质纤维素生物质分解成适合升级为生物基产品的组分。在生物燃料和生物基产品领域，利用热量将植物生物聚合物分馏解聚成可溶解的碳水化合物和木质素衍生的酚类单体常常被忽视甚至被忽视。它的实践者往往自我隔离，因为他们没有认识到他们所研究的现象之间的共性。更不常见的是那些热解构生物质的人和那些依赖解构生物质的作为生物处理基质的人之间的相互作用和合作。到目前为止，还没有一个论坛将热解构的先驱研究人员以及那些寻求生物处理基质新来源的研究人员聚集在一起。这次小型研讨会将提供一个极好的机会，让专家们聚集在一起讨论这一重要的研究领域，这将对可再生能源技术的发展产生重大影响。
