1, 3-propanediol (1, 3-PD), which provides a new promising synthesis route to produce …

The world scenario regarding consumption and demand for products based on fossil fuels
has demonstrated the imperative need to develop new technologies capable of using …

Business is boehming: Boehmite‐supported platinum nanoparticles and tungsten oxides
exhibit high catalytic activity towards the selective hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1, 3 …

The glycerol acetalization reaction in the presence of acetone was evaluated using acidic
carbon-based catalysts from biodiesel waste as catalysts. Acidic carbon-based catalysts …

The renewability of bio-glycerol has made it an attractive platform for the production of
diverse compounds. Selective hydrogenolysis of glycerol to propylene glycol (PG) is one of …

In the last two decades, various glycerol value addition techniques have been developed
and discussed in the literature. Among all these processes, conversion of glycerol to 1, 2 …

The increase in biodiesel production has resulted in the oversupply of glycerol into the
market. Purified and processed glycerol has found many direct applications in …

Abstract Pt/xNb 2 O 5/(100-x) Al 2 O 3 (x= 0, 5, 20, 100, wt.%) catalysts were tested on the
gas phase hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of guaiacol (2-methoxyphenol, C 7 H 8 O 2), model …

Activated carbons prepared from agricultural waste were modified to introduce surface acid
sites by treatment with HNO3 or H2SO4. These acid-functionalised materials were studied …

A series of transition metal oxides (eg, Ni, Cu, Zn, and Zr) were supported on H-beta with
loading of 5–20 wt% via wet impregnation. These catalysts were evaluated in the …
