In this research project, various types of solid catalysts such as supported metal nanoparticles, solid acid, and layered clay compounds, were developed for converting inedible bimomass-derivatives into useful raw materials of polymers and fuels. The reactions were performed under mild conditions using 1atm oxygen in water solvent at temperatures around 100oC. Urthermore, heterogeneous catalysts were combined for one-pot conversions of sugars into frufurals without isolation and purification of the reaction intermediates.
