Abstract:
The present disclosure provides methods to produce substituted furans (e.g., halomethylfurfural, hydroxymethylfurfural, and furfural), by acid-catalyzed conversion of biomass using a gaseous acid in a multiphase reactor, such as a fluidized bed reactor.

Claim (Index 87):
A system for producing furfural, hydroxymethylfurfural, halomethylfurfural, optionally substituted alkylfurfural, levulinic acid, or formic acid, or any combination thereof, wherein the system comprises:\n solid feedstock, wherein the solid feedstock comprises biomass, sugar, or a combination thereof, gaseous acid; and a multiphase reactor configured to receive the solid feedstock and the gaseous acid and provide a reaction mixture comprising producing furfural, hydroxymethylfurfural, halomethylfurfural, alkylfurfural, levulinic acid, or formic acid, or any combination thereof, wherein:\n (i) the solid feedstock has less than 10% water by weight; \n (ii) the gaseous acid has less than 10% water by weight; or \n (iii) both (i) and (ii).
