Question: Red oak has 4 2 % cellulose, 2 8 % hemicellulose ( 2 2 % xylan and 6 % arabinan ) , 2 4 %
Red oak has cellulose, hemicellulose xylan and arabinan lignin, extractives, and ash. In an acid hydrolysis example plant as shown in attached figurekg of red oak sawdust is hydrolyzed. The results show that the cellulose and hemicellulose are completely hydrolyzed to monomeric sugars. In addition, some of the hydrolyzed sugars glucose, xylose, and arabinose are dehydrated to HMF and furfural. If there is no further decomposition or condensation of the furans generated, what is the quantity in kg of HMF produced in this process?
