CAT4BIO - International Conference on “Advances in Catalysis for Biomass Valorization” [08-11 Jul 2012]


>>  This event is a post-satellite conference of the 15th International Congress on Catalysis 2012. The conference will be centered on recent advances in catalysis for biomass valorization to fuels and chemicals. The transformation of biomass into fuel and chemicals is becoming increasingly popular as a way to mitigate global warming and diversify energy sources. Catalysis will serve as key technological driver to achieve efficient and practical biomass conversion routes to useful products.

>>  The conference aims to serve as a platform for the presentation of most recent progress in fundamental and applied catalysis research for the conversion of biomass and provide ground for fruitful discussions among catalysis experts from industry and academia.

>>   Topics:

  • Conversion of cellulose/hemicellulose into platform molecules
  • Conversion of oils extracted from seeds and algae
  • Conversion of biomass into fuels and chemicals via thermo-chemical processes
  • Catalytic routes for lignin valorization
  • Upgrading of biomass-derived products to high added value fuels and chemicals
