Bio-based crotonic acid production
The invention provides method for producing high selectivity trans-crotonic acid from bio-based resource wherein the steps comprise of treatment of poly(3-hydroxbutyrate) (PHB) biomass with mild alkali; and thermal degradation of the PHB biomass. Crotonic acid, a dehydrated monomer of PHB, can be ob...
