OverviewAI-generated summary
Matthew H. Pelkki's research investigates the extraction of valuable compounds from plant materials and the economic contributions of the forest products sector. His work includes the study of sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua L.) for the extraction of shikimic acid, coupled with dilute acid pretreatment processes. Pelkki has also explored the effects of substances like formic acid and furfural on the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose.
In addition to his work on plant chemistry and biomass processing, Pelkki has published extensively on the economic aspects of forestry in the United States. His research in this area includes analyzing the economic contribution of forestry, developing standard procedures for economic impact analysis, and examining methodological variations in economic contribution analyses for forest-related industries. He has also investigated landowner perspectives on forest certification and the impacts of spoil conditions on reforestation efforts. Pelkki's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 10, 86 total publications, and 401 total citations. He has collaborated with Nana Tian and Sagar Godar Chhetri on numerous publications.
