Artificial Cellulase-Type Catalysts for Depolymerization of Cellulosic Biomass

Amarasekara, Ananda S.

Depolymerization of lignocellulosic biomass to fermentable sugars is a challenging step and the primary obstacle for the large-scale processing of cellulosic biomass to fuels and feedstock chemicals. Ionic liquids are well known for their ability to dissolve cellulose, and our interest in the search for efficient catalytic methods for the saccharification of polysaccharides has led us to develop -SO₃H group functionalized Brønsted acidic ionic liquids (BAILs) as solvents as well as catalysts. This chapter will present the development of BAIL-based artificial cellulase-type catalysts for the hydrolysis of cellulose to fermentable sugars for the cellulosic ethanol process.
