The production of biobased furfural has been known for a long time. Nevertheless, two
recent concepts, namely bioeconomy and circular economy, have motivated the research …

Glycerol is a platform molecule allowing the production of high value-added molecules with
numerous industrial applications in many different fields. Among the several studies found in …

To reduce dependence on fossil fuels in Brazil, biodiesel production has grown in recent
years, resulting a large surplus of glycerol, which is obtained as a byproduct. Therefore, it is …

Mechanochemistry and oleochemistry and their combination have been known for centuries.
Nevertheless, bioeconomy and circular economy concepts is much more recent and has …

In the present study, we report an efficient vapor-phase catalytic process operating on a
hierarchically porous non-noble metal decorated HZSM-5 catalyst to produce high octane …

Catalytic-free parallel-plate-type dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma was successfully
employed to hydrogenate palm oil using glycerol as hydrogen donor in place of hydrogen …

Glycerol is a biobased, biodegradable liquid known for its non-toxic, non-hazardous, non-
volatile, and water-soluble properties, making it valuable in various applications. Derived …

Silicalite-1 is a silica with a zeolitic MFI (Mobil Five) structure devoid of noticeable
catalytically active (eg, acid) sites. In this study, we present its modification with NH4F …

Waste oyster shells and waste cooking oil (WCO) were used to develop biodiesel, which
may be less expensive than fossil fuels. The effect of% catalyst, reaction temperature, ratio of …

In this work, two families of catalysts based on mixed metal oxides derived from MgAl
hydrotalcites were synthesized with a Mg/Al molar ratio of 3. On the one hand, in the first …
