Contents:

The focus is on chemical and thermochemical and conversion of biomass. The module introduces the pretreatment of biomass and the production of sugars as precursors for biochemical processes. In addition it presents the production of chemical energy carriers / fuels as well as the production of platform chemicals. This will cover state-of-the-art techniques as well as processes currently under development. The concepts of biorefineries and the role of the different processes involved will also be discussed.
