Wheat bran valorisation: Towards photocatalytic nanomaterials for benzyl alcohol photo-oxidation
(Elsevier, 2017)
In this work, we have successfully synthesized a set of titania photocatalytic nanocomposites by the
incorporation of different TiO2 content on wheat bran residues. The obtained catalysts were characterized
by different ...
Mild ultrasound-assisted synthesis of TiO2 supported on magnetic nanocomposites for selective photo-oxidation of benzyl alcohol
(Elsevier, 2016)
A simple and effective ultrasound-assisted wet impregnation method was developed for the
preparation of magnetically separable TiO2/maghemite-silica photo-active nanocomposites. The
resulting nanomaterials were characterized ...
Catalytic insights into the production of biomass-derived side products methyl levulinate, furfural and humins
(Elsevier, 2017)
Biomass conversion into useful chemicals, materials and fuels emerged as a promising alternative toward replacing the current production of most of these commodities and specialty products from petroleum feedstocks. ...
Heterogeneously Catalyzed Synthesis of Imidazolones via Cycloisomerizations of Propargylic Ureas Using Ag and Au/Al SBA-15 Systems
(ACS, 2019)
The synthesis of imidazolones through the cycloisomerization of ureas, specifically propargylureas, has gained attention due to the large availability of starting materials. However, this type of synthesis normally requires ...
Efficient Ru-based scrap waste automotive converter catalysts for the continuous-flow selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019)
The selective, efficient and sustainable continuous flow hydrogenation of a α,β-unsaturated aldehyde, i.e. cinnamaldehyde, to the corresponding unsaturated alcohol, i.e. cinnamyl alcohol, using a novel catalyst based on ...
Valorisation of humins-extracted 5-Methoxymethylfurfural: towards high added value furanics via continuous flow catatalytic hydrogenation
(ACS Publications, 2019)
The formation of humins is one drawback of biomass valorization (e.g. hemicellulosic fraction) towards platform chemicals and fuels. Furanic compounds including 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and 5-methoxymethylfurfural can be ...
The dark side of biomass valorization: A laboratory experiment to understand humins formation, catalysis and green chemistry
(ACS Publications, 2019)
This laboratory experiment introduces students to an important reaction in biomass valorization and allows them to gain a practical understanding of green chemistry. Acid-catalyzed dehydration reactions of fructose to ...
Green Chemistry and Catalysis united: The emergence of nanocatalysis
(Springer, 2018)
Biomass promises: A bumpy road to a renewable economy
(Bentham Science Publisher, 2018)
Biomass conversion strategies have been taking hold of the scientific community agenda in the evolution of renewable chemical and energy industries. Nonetheless, biomass conversion yet presents challenges due to its ...
Análisis arqueométrico de los productos de corrosión de un caldero de bronce de baja época ibérica del Cerro de la Cruz (Almedinilla, Córdoba)
(Museo Histórico Municipal de Priego de Córdoba, 2017)
Se estudian una serie de fragmentos de bronce de época ibérica hallados en el Cerro de la Cruz (Almedinilla, Córdoba) para determinar la composición química de los productos de corrosión formados sobre ellos. La caracterización ...
