Acid catalysis is one of the most important chemical processes for the conversion of biomass or biomass derivatives to value-added chemicals and biofuels. Polymerization is one of the bottleneck issues during the acid-catalyzed conversion, which consumes feedstock, diminishes the production of target products and results the deactivation of catalyst. In this review, we focus mainly on the previous work on the use of alcohols (compared with water) as the reaction media for suppressing the polymerization reactions during the acid-catalyzed conversion of C6 sugars, C5 sugars, furans, phenolics and bio-oil. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of the reaction networks involving sugars/furans during the acid-catalyzed conversion in water and alcohol media.

酸催化是将生物质或生物质衍生物转化为增值化学品和生物燃料的最重要的化学过程之一。聚合是酸催化转化过程中的瓶颈问题之一，它消耗原料，减少目标产物的产量并导致催化剂失活。在这篇综述中，我们主要关注先前关于使用醇（与水相比）作为反应介质抑制 C6 糖、C5 糖、呋喃、酚类和生物油酸催化转化过程中聚合反应的工作。 . 特别注意在水和醇介质中酸催化转化过程中涉及糖/呋喃的反应网络的分析。
