Introduction: The Biomass Materials & Chemicals sub-conference focuses on the development and application of biomass resources, covering the preparation, performance optimization and functional design of biomass-based materials such as lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose, as well as new technologies and cutting-edge research on the production and processing of biomass into chemicals. Topics include structural properties and functional utilization of biomass, innovation in the application of biomass-based materials in the fields of environment, energy and materials, and new methods and technologies for the conversion of biomass into high value-added chemicals. The conference will discuss the sustainable development and utilization strategies of biomass resources, promote the implementation of biomass-based materials and chemicals in carbon neutrality and resource recycling, and provide scientific and technological support for the construction of a sustainable economic system.
