Abstract:
Processes for preparing tetrahydrofuran and/or butane-1,4-diol and/or gamma-butyrolactone are provided, including a process for preparing tetrahydrofuran (THF) from succinic acid that has been obtained by conversion of biomass, by conversion of the succinic acid to succinic anhydride, and hydrogenation of the succinic anhydride, with removal of certain secondary components.
