Furfuryl Alcohol Drives the Global Demand Growth for Furfural to Reach 455k Metric Tons by 2024
Market Report (2018-2024)
Corncob Security
Not much has changed since the 2015 study: Corncob prices still dominate the base price of furfural.
Pulp Miller’s Strategy: Integrate Biochemicals (Furfural)
Pulp Mills are an ideal source of large amounts of ‘free pentoses’, from which furfural is made.
Biomass Suitable for Furfural Production
During 10 years of furfural process R&D, the team at International Furan Technology (“IFT”), a DalinYebo subsidiary, investigated and developed solutions mainly for the use of solid biomass.
How to Turn a Corncob into Plastic Bottles
All you need is a Cob and CO2 to make Plastic Bottles. This article is an update to a previous article: "Plastic Bottles from Carbon Dioxide and a Furfural Derivative" Most of the 270 billion plastic bottles used in the U.S. each year are derived from petroleum. And...
A Renaissance: Furfural for Rocket Fuel
Eco-friendly and affordable rocketfuel blends to replace currently used toxic fuels. Indian researchers [1] investigated furfuryl alcohol ("FA", a furfural derivative) blends with ionic liquids ("ILs") as a basis for an eco-friendly rocket fuel. ILs are a suitable...
A Well Kept Secret: How To Add (More) Value To Biomass
Furfural is one of the oldest chemicals made from biomass. It has been commercially made since 1922 and is today recognised as one of the most import biobased chemical building blocks During a presentation of a feasibility study on the Integration of Furfural...
Beyond “Electricity From Sugarcane”
Furfural: A Complementary, but More Attractive By-Product Benefits There are many benefits when integrating furfural production into a sugar mill that co-generates electricity: The income per tonne of bagasse is at least 50% higher, than from electricity sales....
An App Knows if a Beer Has Gone Stale
Furfural: Freshness Indicator of Beer (and other beverages and foods)! Beer is one of the most widely consumed alcoholic beverages in the world. The flavour of each brand is one of its most relevant quality standards. However, depending on the beer type and its...

(Furfural) Biorefinery 101: Start Simpler
Keep it simple! Making furfural is not rocket science. It’s all about the integrating furfural production into the mass and energy balance of a pulp or sugar mill,
FDCA to PEF (Polyethylene Furanoate): A Production Cost Analysis
The total operating cost (raw materials, utilities, fixed costs and depreciation costs) estimated to produce PEF was about $2,700/ton in Q2 2015.
How About Introducing BreakdownPEF?
A Cradle to an End-of-Life Solution for Billions of Plastic Containers The article "LVF Introduces BreakdownPET, an End-of-Life Solution for Billions of Plastic Containers" [1] gave rise to the tile and headline of this post and our commentary. DalinYebo...
PET Recycle & Reuse – Only an (Important) Interim Solution!
PET recycling is important, but all polyesters must be made from sugars (rather sooner than later)
A Faster Hydrogenation Process to Make Furfuryl Alcohol
Faster hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alcohol (in water!).
Shell to quit US lobby over climate policies
Citing climate differences, Shell walks away from U.S. refining lobby.
Furfural is THE Biobased Platform Chemical
Furfural chemistry is one of the oldest biomass-derived platforms for synthetic products like resins, plastics, polymers, etc. DalinYebo's Insight: The publication "Furfural: A Promising Platform Compound for Sustainable Production of C4 and C5 Chemicals" [1] refers:...
Palm Biomass to Furfural
Date palm trees produce huge amount of agricultural wastes in the form of dry leaves, stems, pits, seeds etc. | It’s chemical composition is suitable to make furfural.
Australia: Sugar set for ‘Energycane’ Reinvention
Sugarcane is ideal for renewables because it is fast-growing with abundant biomass. Besides sugar and cellulose, its hemicelluloses (or the so called 5-carbon sugars, Pentoses) are an ideal feedstock to make furfural (one of the oldest bio-based chemical building blocks).
