Abstract
The global annual production of rice is over 750 million tons, and generates a huge amount of biomass waste, such as straw, husk, and bran, making rice waste an ideal feedstock for biomass conversion industries. This review focuses on the current progress in the transformation of rice waste into valuable products, including biochar, (liquid and gaseous) biofuels, valuable chemicals (sugars, furan derivatives, organic acids, and aromatic hydrocarbons), and carbon/silicon-based catalysts and catalyst supports. The challenges and future prospectives are highlighted to guide future studies in rice waste valorization for sustainable production of fuels and chemicals.

Introduction of acid mine drainage in the direct production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural from raw biomass and expanding the use of biomass conversion residue. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2022; 364:128094.

Abstract
Direct production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) through biomass always needs the addition of exogenous catalysts and causes extra costs. Herein, acid mine drainage (AMD), one of the traditional wastewaters, was introduced as a natural catalyst to produce HMF directly from lignocellulosic biomass. Key factors in the biomass conversion were optimized and investigated by the response surface methodology (RSM), and the HMF yield reached 13.51 wt% under optimal conditions. The metal elements and the acidic environment in AMD activated the Fenton reaction to effectively destroy the lignocellulose structure and synergistically promote the formation of HMF. Furthermore, the biomass substrate in the biomass conversion was indirectly modified by the AMD during this process. The biomass conversion residue could be prepared by pyrolysis to obtain a functional metal-loaded carbon material with good adsorption of thiamethoxam (THX), which provides a sustainable solution for the disposal of biomass conversion residue.

Abstract
The intricate nature and rigidity of rice straw, particularly the presence of lignin and silica, hinders the catalytic valorization, consequently decreasing the yield of target products. This study reports the concurrent removal of lignin and silica from rice straw to obtain enriched holocellulose, then transforming it to furfural (FUR) and levulinic acid (LA). Interestingly, rice straw in the form of powder displays an improved removal of lignin (51.0%) and silica (92.0%) during ammonia treatment. Encouragingly, adding organic solvents, such as THF, to the aqueous system during the pretreatment of rice straw improves the lignin removal to 60.0%. Upon improving lignin removal to 60%, the obtained holocellulose enriched solid residue yields 71.0% FUR along with 52.0% LA, which is 8 and 4-fold higher than what is obtained with parent rice straw, signifying the importance and the prerequisite of lignin and silica removal from rice straw.

Abstract
This research work presented the preparation of metal-loading ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst by loading Cu and Cr ions into the ZSM-5 zeolite particles using ion exchange method. Technical conditions of ion exchange processes were investigated to find suitable process for preparation of modified zeolite. The as-obtained zeolite catalyst was then applied for the transformation reaction of biomass-derived glucose into 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF). Glucose hydrolysate that achieved from enzymatic hydrolysis of rice straw was used as feedstock for transformation reaction using Cu-Cr/ZSM-5 catalyst. This metal-loading zeolite exhibited good catalytic activity for lignocellulosic conversion to HMF, a valuable renewable green chemical. The content of loading metals in the zeolite catalyst affected significantly on the HMF yield. Moreover, the influence of transformation conditions such as solvent, temperature, catalyst dosage, and reaction time was investigated. According to the results, the optimum condition leading to the highest yield of HMF of 49.5 ± 0.5% was established. The as-prepared Cu-Cr/ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst showed impressive performance and can be considered a promising catalyst for the transformation of biomass-derived glucose to HMF.

Abstract
In this study, waste peanut shells were sulfur-impregnated and used as acid catalysts in the presence of an ionic liquid for the conversion of fructose, glucose, and cellulose into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, a useful chemical intermediate for biofuel production. Effects of sulfur-doping duration (1 h and 5 h), solvent type and proportion, reaction temperature (130 °C, 140 °C, and 150 °C), time (30-240 min), catalyst-to-substrate ratio (1-2.5 m/m), and agricultural residue (peanut shell, Canada wheat straw, water hyacinth, stalk, and reed) on HMF yields were investigated. Monophasic and biphasic ionic liquids such as [amim]Cl, [bmim]HSO4, and [emim]Cl were employed in combination with choline chloride and dimethyl sulfoxide to improve HMF yields. Results show that peanut shells subjected to prolonged sulfur impregnation produced higher HMF yields. At 130 °C and 2 h, HMF yields from fructose and glucose reached 94.6% and 55.1%, respectively. Higher reaction temperatures improved HMF yields and accelerated conversion rates for the sugar substrates. Moreover, HMF production from waste biomass namely, peanut shells, peanut stalk, Canadian wheat straw, reed, and water hyacinth were examined in separate one-pot catalytic reactions. Overall, the study showed the effectiveness of sulfur-doped peanut shells as solid acid catalysts for the synthesis of HMF from various sources and the results may be used in designing large-scale production of furanic biofuel precursors from agricultural wastes.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass, a cheap and plentiful resource, could play a key role in the production of sustainable chemicals. The simple sugars contained in the renewable lignocellulosic biomass can be converted into commercially valuable products such as 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF). A platform molecule, HMF can be transformed into numerous chemical products with potential applications in a wide variety of industries. Of the hexoses contained in the lignocellulosic biomass, the successful production of HMF from glucose has been a challenge. Various heterogeneous catalysts have been proposed over the last decade, ranging from zeolites to metal organic frameworks. The reaction conditions vary in the reports in the literature, which makes it difficult to compare catalysts reported in different studies. In addition, the slight variations in the synthesis of the same material in different laboratories may affect the activity results, because the selectivity towards desired products in this transformation strongly depends on the nature of the active sites. This poses another difficulty for the comparison of different reports. Furthermore, over the last decade the new catalytic systems proposed have increased profoundly. In this article, we summarize the heterogeneous catalysts: Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs), zeolites and conventional supported catalysts, that have been reported in the recent literature and provide an overview of the observed catalytic activity, in order to provide a comparison.

Abstract
5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) derived from cellulosic sugars has become increasingly important as a platform chemical for the biorefinery industry because of its versatility in the conversion to other chemicals. Although HMF can be produced in high yield from fructose dehydration, fructose is rather expensive because it requires multiple processing steps. On the other hand, HMF can be produced directly from highly abundant glucose, which could reduce time and cost. However, an effective and multifunctional catalyst is needed to selectively promote the glucose-to-HMF reaction. In this work, we report a bifunctional phosphated titanium dioxide as an efficient catalyst for such a reaction. The best catalyst exhibits excellent catalytic performance for the glucose conversion to HMF with 72% yield and 83% selectivity in the biphasic system. We achieve this by tuning the solvent system, controlling the amount of Brønsted and Lewis acid sites on the catalyst, and modification of the reaction setup. From the analysis of acid sites, we found that the addition of phosphate group (Brønsted acid site) onto the surface of TiO2 (Lewis acid site) significantly enhanced the HMF yield and selectivity when the optimum ratio of Brønsted and Lewis acid sites is reached. The high catalytic activity, good reusability, and simple preparation method of the catalyst show a promise for the potential use of this catalytic system on an industrial scale. Tunable Lewis and Brønsted acid sites on P–TiO2 tandem catalysts for glucose-to-HMF conversion providing high HMF yield (72%) and selectivity (83%).![]()
