DESCRIPTION:PhD Oral Defense of Agneev Mukherjee\, Department of Bioresourc
 e Engineering\n\nThe conversion of biomass to chemicals on an industrial s
 cale at a competitive cost requires the development of biorefineries analo
 gous to petrochemical refineries.  In a biorefinery\, different biomass fe
 edstocks are converted into platform chemicals which can\, in turn\, yield
  a large number of end-products. Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and levulinic
  acid (LA) are two promising platform chemicals. They can be produced from
  carbohydrate or lignocellulosic feedstock via acid hydrolysis. Despite th
 e potential importance of HMF and LA and extensive research on them at the
  laboratory level\, few commercial production plants have been reported.\n
 \nEveryone in the 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ community is welcome to attend a PhD oral defense
 . Please join us in celebrating the accomplishments of our PhD candidates.
