Optimization with Response Surface Methodology of Microwave-Assisted Conversion of Xylose to Furfural

The production of furfural from renewable sources, such as lignocellulosic biomass, has gained great interest within the concept of biorefineries. In lignocellulosic materials, xylose is the most abundant pentose, which forms the hemicellulosic part. One of the key steps in the production of furfura...
