Several industrial chemicals were prepared by hydrogenation of furfural over γ-Al 2 O 3-
supported Pt and Pd catalysts. These catalysts were active even at room temperature (25° …

Chemoselectivity is a cornerstone of catalysis, permitting the targeted modification of specific
functional groups within complex starting materials. Here we elucidate key structural and …

For the purpose as stated in title, three Ru catalysts were prepared with the same treated
carbon nanotubes. One has most of Ru nanoparticles confined inside the channels, and the …

Modern society has an ever-increasing demand for environmentally friendly catalytic
processes. Catalysis research is working towards a solution through the development of …

Palladium nanoparticles supported on N-doped hierarchically porous carbon, Pd/CNx, has
been developed as a highly efficient, reusable and environmentally benign heterogeneous …

Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) supported Pt catalysts were employed to study the
influence of nitrogen-and oxygen-functionalized surface on catalytic performance in the …

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have significantly contributed to destruction of a wide
variety of pollutants in air, soil and water, by applying reactive radicals to attack the bonds of …

Specificity to desired reaction products is the key challenge in designing solid catalysts for
reactions involving addition or removal of oxygen to/from organic reactants. This challenge …

Herein, a way to generate mono-and bi-metallic copper and/or nickel nanoparticles by the
direct reduction of Mg (Ni) CuAl-layered double hydroxide (LDH) precursors is reported. Cu …

N-doped carbon coated TiO 2 microspheres (CNx/TiO 2) were synthesized by the
carbonization of the polypyrrole (PPy) coating on the surface of TiO 2 microspheres and …
