Abstract Promising technology for the conversion of cellulose to aromatics by catalytic fast pyrolysis (CFP) was investigated using five zeolite catalysts, i.e., 5A, SAPO-34, HY, BETA and HZSM-5. The relationship between the porosity and acidity of different zeolites with product selectivity was studied. The results showed that both the acidity and pore size of the zeolite significantly affected the production of aromatics and coke, especially the bio-oil composition. The bio-oils obtained over 5A or SAPO-34 (small pore
