Furfuryl　alcohol　(FOL),　as　an　important　and　promising　organic　chemical　product,　can　be　effectively　converted　into　various　high-value　chemicals,　such　as　furfural　resin,　urea-formaldehyde　resin,　phenolic　resin,　fruit　acid,　plasticizer,　rocket　fuel,　etc.　The　green　FOL　production　by　catalytic　hydrogenation　using　furfural　(FAL),　xylose,　and　fructose　as　raw　materials　has　good　application　prospects　and　research　values.　This　article　systematically　reviews　the　research　status　of　the　FOL　production　from　FAL,　xylose,　and　fructose　on　the　recent　advances,　and　summarizes　from　the　aspects　of　catalyst　types,　catalytic　efficiency　and　mechanism　for　FOL　production.　On　this　basis,　the　development　trends　of　the　FOL　production　by　catalytic　hydrogenation　are　prospected,　which　may　provide　theoretical　guidance　and　useful　reference　for　developing　new　efficient　green　and　stable　catalytic　system.
