Advances in nanocatalysts design for biofuels production
(Wiley-VCH, 2017)
The exploitation of nanocatalysts, at the boundary between homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, is tracking new efficient ways to produce renewable biofuels in environmentally friendly conditions. Their solid state ...
Microwave-assisted preparation of Ag/Ag2S carbon hybrid structures from pig bristles as efficient HER electrocatalysts
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)
Ag/Ag2S hybrid structures have recently attracted significant interest due to their high chemical and thermal stability, in addition to their unique optical and electrical properties. However, their standard synthetic ...
Continuous flow conversion of biomass-derived methyl levulinate into gamma valerolactone using functional metal organic frameworks
(2019)
Zirconium based metal organic framework, UiO-66 (Zr), was successfully synthesized via solvothermal method, followed by various characterization including XRD, thermal analysis, N2 physisorption and TEM. As-synthesized ...
Facile mechanochemical modification of g-C3N4 for selective photo-oxidation of benzyl alcohol
(2019)
Graphitic carbon nitride enriched with ZnO or Fe2O3 were synthesized using a simple one-pot mechanochemical method. By using this method, composite samples were synthetized without the production of any potentially hazardous ...
Highly active catalytic Ru/TiO2 nanomaterials for continuous production of γ-valerolactone
(2019)
Green energy production from renewable sources is an attractive but challenging topic to face the likely energy crisis scenario in the future. In the current work, a series of versatile Ru/TiO2 catalysts were simply ...
Towards industrial furfural conversion: selectivity and stability of palladium and platinum catalysts under continuous flow regime
(2019)
Furfural is an important biorefinery platform chemical, derived from hemicelluloses which represent an import fraction of lignocellulosic biomass feedstocks and waste streams originating from them. Recently, promising ...
Benign-by-design preparation of iron oxides/humins catalytic nanocomposites
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)
The current acid-catalyzed conversion of biomass feedstocks yields substantial quantities of undesired by-products called humins, for which applications are yet to be found. This work aims to provide a starting point for ...
A Sustainable Approach for the Synthesis of Catalytically Active Peroxidase-Mimic ZnS Catalysts
(ACS Publications, 2019)
Zinc sulfides are emerging as promising catalysts in different fields such as photochemistry or organic synthesis. Nevertheless, the synthesis of ZnS compounds normally requires the utilization of toxic sulfur precursors, ...
Sustainable protocol for the reduction of nitroarenes by heterogeneous Au@SBA‐15 using NaBH4 under flow conditions
(Wiley, 2019)
Gold‐incorporated SBA‐15 catalyst was prepared by a solvent‐free ball milling approach. The catalyst showed high reactivity and selectivity in the reduction of a variety of nitroarenes to anilines operating in absolute ...
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 ...
