Abstract:
This disclosure relates to compositions and methods for converting biomass to various chemical intermediates and final products including fuels. Aspects include the depolymerization of lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose to a wide slate of depolymerization compounds that can be subsequently metabolized by genetically modified bacterium, and converted to cis,cis-muconic acid. Other aspects include the use of monometallic catalysts for converting the cis,cis-muconic acid to commodity chemicals and fuels, for example adipic acid and/or nylon.

Claim (Index 20):
A process for producing adipic acid, the process comprising:\n separating muconic acid from a culture broth comprising muconic acid, impurities, and a microorganism; purifying the separated muconic acid; and hydrogenating at least a portion of the purified muconic acid to produce the adipic acid.
