Mesoporous solid bases are extremely desirable in green catalytic processes, due to their
advantages of accelerated mass transport, negligible corrosion, and easy separation. Great …

This paper presents an in-depth review of recent research on catalytic pyrolysis of
microalgae and suitable approaches for bio-oil upgrading. The performance of three types of …

Bio-oil is a highly valuable product derived from biomass pyrolysis which could be used in
various downstream applications upon appropriate upgrading and refining. Extraction and …

Palladium supported on high-surface-area ceria effectively catalyzes the hydrogenation of
phenol to cyclohexanone at atmospheric pressure and room temperature. Activation of H2 at …

Iron nanoparticles supported on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (Fe-MSN) catalyze the
hydrotreatment of fatty acids with high selectivity for hydrodeoxygenation over …

Currently, although microalgae biorefinery is gaining attention in proportion to its
demonstrated benefits, certain technical requirements need to be met, and cost issues need …

The establishment of catalyst systems for the chemoselective hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of
carboxylic acids to hydrocarbons, such as the HDO of long-chain fatty acids to alkanes, is …

A tandem process involving the dehydroaromatization of the terpene limonene and the
hydrodeoxygenation of stearic acid has been found to be efficiently catalyzed by Pd …

A highly active catalyst, hierarchical nano-sized Ni/HBEA, is developed for stearic acid and
palm oil hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) in dodecane. The TPAOH/NaOH treated hierarchical …

The hydroboration of aldehydes and ketones using a silica-supported zirconium catalyst is
reported. Reaction of Zr (NMe2) 4 and mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) provides the …
