depletes the finite primary fossil resources available on Earth. The forecast of population …

The enormous production of glycerol, a waste stream from biodiesel industries, as a low-
value product has been causing a threat to both the environment and the economy …

Catalytic fast pyrolysis of pine wood sawdust and furan (a model biomass compound) with
ZSM-5 based catalysts was studied with three different reactors: a bench scale bubbling …

Catalytic dehydration of glycerol to acrolein has the potential to valorise the glut of crude
glycerol issuing from biodiesel production. This reaction requires catalysts with appropriate …

The production of renewable chemicals is gaining attention over the past few years. The
natural resources from which they can be derived in a sustainable way are most abundant in …

The preparation of nano-sized H [Zn, Al] ZSM-5 zeolite by direct synthesis procedure and its
application in the aromatization of methanol were studied. SEM, XRD, and N 2 adsorption …

An increase in glycerol production is expected because of the increasing use of fuel
additives such as methyl esters. This increase can enhance the importance of glycerol as a …

The significant surge in biodiesel production by transesterification of edible or non-edible
oils have caused surplus of glycerol in the market. With its characteristics, unique structure …

The increasing use of bio-based fuels and fuel additives, among them biodiesel, causes
significant surplus of crude glycerol on the market which creates new challenges in terms of …

Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of guaiacol over Ni metal supported on zeolites (H-Beta and H-
ZSM-5) with different Si/Al ratios (12.5, 25, 175) and different metal loadings (2.3–23.4 wt%) …
