The huge amount of glycerol obtained during the production of biofuels has led to the search
of alternatives for the use of this by-product. New applications for this polyol as a low-cost …

Applications of renewable biomass provide facile routes to alleviate the shortage of fossil
fuels as well as to reduce the emission of CO 2. Glycerol, which is currently produced 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 …

In the present work, a comparative study of Ni catalysts supported on commercially available
alumina and lanthana-alumina carriers was undertaken for the glycerol steam reforming …

The glycerol steam reforming (GSR) reaction for hydrogen production was investigated over
Rh-based catalysts supported on γ-Al 2 O3 modified with CeO 2, MgO or La 2 O 3. High …

Metal–support interaction is a hot topic in catalysis, but attention has seldom been drawn to
the promotional effect of metal–irreducible SiO 2 interfaces. Here, Cu/SBA-15 catalysts with …

Glycerol, a by-product of biodiesel industry, could be utilized for the production of synthesis
gas or hydrogen via steam reforming. Ni/Al 2 O 3 catalysts are efficient for this process but …

The present work deals with the catalytic performance of a series of supported niobium
oxide (1–12 wt% Nb 2 O 5) catalysts in the gas phase dehydration of glycerol. The niobium …

Catalytic transfer hydrogenolysis, using liquid H‐donors in the absence of pressurized H2
under mild temperatures, is regarded as the most important technology to substitute …

Dual templating approach, using hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), was
employed in an attempt to synthesize hierarchical ZSM-5 zeolite. Amount of mesoporogen …
