Utilization of Chemicals from Wood: Retrospect and Prospect

  • Chapter
The Structure, Biosynthesis, and Degradation of Wood

Part of the book series: Recent Advances in Phytochemistry ((RAPT,volume 11))

Abstract

Extensive research on the chemical structure and utilization of wood constituents has been conducted by the forest products industry but has remained largely unnoticed among the chemical fraternity during recent years. This is a result of the predominant position held by petroleum as a raw material in the chemical industry. The recent upsurge in crude oil prices, coupled with a growing public awareness that petroleum is a finite resource, has prompted serious review of the prospect for sustaining our economy on alternative chemical and energy resources. Among these are the forest since it is capable of sustained yield if properly managed.
