The efficient conversion of biomass to value-added products has
become a major research area in the pursuit of alternatives to
petroleum-based feedstocks; hydrogenation and hydrogenolysis are
important tools to achieving this aim. This book presents
comprehensive coverage of the different catalysts for these
reactions, targeting the efficient conversion of bio-based
molecules and biopolymers.

The editor, Roberto Rinaldi, is an acknowledged leader in the
field of biomass conversion, and has brought together experts
from across the globe to examine all aspects of the process,
including the solvents, catalysts and feedstocks used in modern
biorefineries. Consideration is also given to the fundamentals of
running a plant, such as equipment and safety issues.
