Most hydrolysis studies on biomass produce a high amount of xylose and glucose compared to other monosaccharides. A specially tailored thin-film composite (TFC) membrane prepared via interfacial polymerization (IP) using triethanolamine (TEOA) and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) as monomers on a polyethers...
