Due to its high energy density and non-polluting combustion, hydrogen has emerged as one
of the most promising candidates for meeting future energy demands and realising a C-free …

To solve the problem of the global energy shortage and the widespread pollution of the
environment, semiconductor photocatalytic technology has been widely studied. Zeolitic …

In this work, different alkali metal (Na or K)-doped manganese-based metal–organic
framework (Mn-MOF) derivative materials were obtained from Mn-MIL-100 through ex situ …

Biomass has attracted great attention as a carbon source for the production of valuable
chemicals and fuels. Selective ring-opening hydrogenation of cyclic oxygenates derived …

Developing an economic catalyst to upgrade furfural to alcohols (such as linear alcohol and
cyclopentanol) is highly significant for fine chemical synthesis and biomass utilization. Here …

Abstract Pentanediols (1, 2-pentanediol and 1, 5-pentanediol) are important feedstock for
synthesis of fine chemicals, production of which from the biomass-derived furfural or furfuryl …

Metal–organic framework (MOF) based heterogeneous catalysts have been widely used in
furfural (FFR) hydrogenation reactions. As numerous studies are related to the conversion of …

Melanoidins, are of increasing interest for their potential biological activities. However, little
knowledge is available on their structure. In the present study, vinegar, coffee and model …

The production of plastic has been steadily increasing due to its widespread use. However,
the disposal of plastic waste has become a significant problem, as most of it can only be …

1, 5-Pentanediol (1, 5-PDO) is a feedstock for synthesis of polyesters and polyurethanes,
and its selective production from furfural is a desirable route but very challenging. In this …
