Abstract: The present invention relates to a green catalytic process for sustainable conversion of agricultural waste into high-value chemicals. Agricultural residues such as straw, husks, stalks, bagasse, shells, and other lignocellulosic biomass are prepared and optionally pretreated before catalytic conversion using an environmentally compatible catalyst. Controlled reaction conditions facilitate selective transformation of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin into valuable chemical products and intermediates. The process employs environmentally preferable reaction media, enables catalyst recovery and reuse, and incorporates product separation and purification. The invention provides waste reduction, renewable resource utilization, reduced fossil dependency, and sustainable chemical production. Accompanied Drawing [FIG. 1]
