This report describes the various techniques being used in the production of PET from sources such as cellulose. The report covers:
# Various pathways for production of PET from renewable sources
# All the catalysts (e.g. Hydrogen, Sodium, etc.) and techniques (e.g. catalytic dehydration) used in production of each of the intermediate compounds (e.g. ethylene glycol) produced
# Search strategies for patents for the various pathways and methods for production of ethylene glycol and dimethyl terephthalate, which are then used to produce PET
# Classification and in-depth analysis of the patents
