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 91ºÚÁÏÍø community is welcome to attend a PhD oral defense
 . Please join us in celebrating the accomplishments of our PhD candidates.
