摘要: With technological advancement of thermocatalytic processes for valorizing renewable biomass carbon, development effective separation technologies selective recovery bioproducts from complex reaction media and their purification becomes essential. The high thermal sensitivity intermediates low volatility reactivity, along with the use dilute solutions, make separations energy intensive expensive. Novel techniques, including solvent extraction in biphasic systems reactive adsorption using zeolite carbon sorbents, membranes, chromatography, have been developed. In parallel experimental efforts, multiscale simulations reported predicting selection separation. We discuss various that are potentially valuable to future biorefineries factors controlling performance. Particular emphasis is given current gaps opportunities development.
