Acid homogeneous catalysis for cellulose hydrolysis Since the fact that sugars are decomposed under severe conditions needed to facilitate cellulose hydrolysis, i.e., high temperature and low pH, in recent years there is a decreasing trend in the interest in acid technology.[ 14 ] Nevertheless, there are still constant research efforts on the subject and a significant development has been made in the area of homogeneous acid hydrolysis of cellulose.
