We focus on the fundamental kinetics and reaction chemistry to get a deeper insight into the mechanism of the thermochemical conversion of lignocellulosic biomass and other solid fuels and to aid the development of lignocellulosic biomass utilization processes. There are strong incentives to develop the production of fuels and chemicals from thermochemical conversion of lignocellulosic biomass. Research focused on the kinetics and reaction chemistry will permit a better understanding and controlling biomass thermochemical conversion processes.
