Abstract
The production of aromatics with fuel properties from either biomass resources or low-cost refinery streams such as C5 is an important industrial interest. However, the strategic design of reliable catalysts with commercial compatibilities remained a challenge. Several investigations were carried out in this direction. This review accordingly presents a comprehensive analysis of the literature on the catalysis-based strategies adopted for aromatization of the feeds. Valorization of furans and allied oxygenates derived from biomass into aromatics was initially covered. The review examined strategies for C5 streams aromatization, co-upgrading of furans with hydrocarbons and methanol and discussed how biomass-derived bio-oils could be valorized into aromatics. In addition to discussion on the influence of catalytic textural, acidity and topological properties, the paper provided substantial updates on the associated reaction mechanisms. A perspective for further investigations in aromatization was also provided.
