Methods of making glucose and/or furfural from biomass require one or more supercritical fluids that may be used to process biomass, cellulose from the biomass, and/or xylose from the biomass. Examples of supercritical fluids for use in pro-cessing biomass include ethanol, water, and carbon dioxide at a temperature and pressure above the critical points for ethanol and carbon dioxide but at a temperature and/or pressure below that of the critical point for water. A supercritical fluid containing car-bon dioxide and water may be used to convert cellulose to glucose or convert xylose to furfural. The fluid has a temperature and pressure above the critical point of carbon dioxide, but at least one of the temperature and pressure is below the critical point for water.

L'invention concerne des procédés de fabrication de glucose et/ou de furfural à partir d'une biomasse, qui nécessitent un ou plusieurs fluides supercritiques qui peuvent être utilisés pour traiter de la biomasse, de la cellulose provenant de la biomasse, et/ou du xylose provenant de la biomasse. Des exemples de fluides supercritiques destinés à être utilisés dans le traitement d'une biomasse comprennent de l'éthanol, de l'eau, et du dioxyde de carbone à une température et une pression supérieures au point critique pour l'éthanol et le dioxyde de carbone, mais à une température et/ou une pression inférieure(s) à celles du point critique de l'eau. Un fluide supercritique contenant du dioxyde de carbone et de l'eau peut être utilisé pour convertir la cellulose en glucose, ou convertir le xylose en furfural. Le fluide a une température et une pression supérieures au point critique du dioxyde de carbone, mais au moins un élément parmi la température et la pression est inférieur au point critique pour l'eau.
