Abstract	Acid-catalyzed dehydration of carbohydrates into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), a valuable biomass-derived intermediate, has received increasing attention. Efficient methods for HMF production are needed for successful commercialization of HMF in the near future. A new process for the dehydration of sugars into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural in aqueous/butanol media enhanced by using formic acid was developed. The effects of formic acid concentration, reaction temperature, and reaction time on the fructose conversion and HMF yield showed the significant influences of these process variables. The optimum conditions were found to be 2.5 mol/L formic acid concentration, 170°C and 70 min. Under such conditions, a fructose conversion of 98.3% with a HMF yield of 69.2% was achieved. The application of the butanol solvent and formic acid led to the conversion of fructose to HMF with high yield. The catalytic system in this study has prospects for commercial application due to its less corrosion and convenient downstream separation.
