Ethanol is presently the most common liquid fuel derived from biomass. One way of meeting
the growing demand for heavier middle-distillate fuels—diesel and jet fuels comprising …

Hydroxyapatite (HAP) is a green catalyst that has a wide range of applications in catalysis
due to its high flexibility and multifunctionality. These properties allow HAP to accommodate …

Ethanol, mainly produced from the yeast fermentation of biomass, is one of the most
important renewable building blocks for synthesizing value-added chemicals. Different …

In the past two decades, on account of the energy and environmental crisis brought by the
decline in fossil resources, price volatility, and climate change, the high-value utilization of …

Copper-based catalysts have been widely considered in the non-oxidative dehydrogenation
of ethanol but suffer from deactivation troubles. Herein, a hierarchical echinus-like Cu-MFI …

Butanol has similar characteristics to gasoline, and could provide an alternative oxygenate
to ethanol in blended fuels. Butanol can be produced either via the biotechnological route …

Upgrading biomass-derived ethanol to higher alcohols is a significantly promising process
involving multi-step tandem reactions finely regulated by multiple active sites. However, the …

Bioethanol produced via valorisation of renewable biomass is of great interest to many
industries. The increased availability and decreased cost of bioethanol make it a promising …

UiO-66-encapsulated nanopalladium (Pd@ UiO-66) catalysts were used as highly efficient
and stable catalysts for continuous catalytic upgrading of ethanol to n-butanol. The best …

Catalytic upgrading of ethanol, as a platform molecule from biomass to higher alcohols (C4–
12), is a low-carbon route for value-added chemical production. However, the products are …
