These catalysts were active even at room temperature (25 degrees C). While the Pt catalysts were selective for C=O hydrogenation (yielding furfuryl alcohol), Pd facilitated ring hydrogenation (producing tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol). At high temperature (240 degrees C), the Pd catalyst exhibited excellent decarbonylation activity forming furan with 85% yield. The catalyst was reusable even in the absence of external hydrogen. The presence of hydrogen led to ring-opened products. Furan was quantitatively converted at 25 degrees C to tetrahydrofuran. Acidity of the support made a marked influence on the activity and selectivity. Pt on SO4-ZrO2 favored hydrogenolysis yielding 2-methyl furan along with furan with &amp;gt;75 wt% selectivity. Particle size, metal dispersion, and solvent influenced catalytic activity. Differences in structure and mode of furfural adsorption were also the causes for variations in selectivity of these supported Pt and Pd catalysts. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc.

Structural characteristics of AC and graphite materials were found to greatly affect the reducibility and particle size of supported Ru and hence, the activity and product distribution in glycerol hydrogenolysis. XRD of graphite materials showed distinctly (002) plane having highly organized layered structure and the peak intensity decreased in the order of Ru/KS150 &amp;gt; Ru/HSAG100 &amp;gt; Ru/KS6 due to decrease in the graphite sheet thickness. In Raman, the intense D band in HSAG100 compared to that in KS6 and KS150 samples indicated its highly amorphous nature or mixed carbon hybridization. Glycerol conversion for Ru on AC was higher than that on graphite and among different graphites, it showed a descending activity order of Ru/KS6 &amp;gt; Ru/HSAG100 &amp;gt; Ru/KS150. The product distribution for AC and HSAG100 supported Ru was similar, giving 1-propanol (45%) alongwith 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PDO) (37%) and 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) (9–11%). For graphite supports, availability of Ru although bigger in size (4–5 nm), would be higher on the surface than in case of AC which formed deep hydrogenolysis products like 1-, 2- propanol, ethanol etc.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11.698</style></custom4><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">134-146</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Solanki, B.

Among the prepared catalysts, 3%Pd/C showed excellent performance in terms of complete conversion of 5-HMF along with the highest selectivity of 99% to 2,5-DMF. Detailed physico-chemical characterisation was done in order to understand structure-activity correlation. Uniformly dispersed Pd nanoparticles on activated carbon provided the adsorption surface to enhance the hydrogenation of 5-HMF.

Cryptomelane type octahedral molecular sieve-2 (K-OMS-2), a cheap and environmentally benign microporous oxide was employed to support Ru and used as a catalyst to get 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PDO) selectively through hydrogenolysis of glycerol. Three catalysts with different Ru content were prepared and evaluated for glycerol hydrogenolysis. Among these, 1 wt.% Ru-K-OMS-2 showed reasonably good activity towards 1,2-PDO formation under moderate reaction conditions even at lower Ru loading (0.9 wt.%). When other metals such as Cu and Ni were supported on K-OMS-2, their performance was inferior compared to Ru-supported catalysts. All the catalysts were characterized using various physicochemical techniques like XRD, N-2-sorption, TPD, H-2-TPR, TGA, ICP-OES, FE-SEM and TEM. The enhanced catalytic activity with the 1 wt.%Ru-K-OMS-2 catalyst was attributed to the better Ru metal dispersion, higher active metal surface area, basic strength, and porosity of the support. The catalyst was found to be recyclable. Analysis of spent catalyst by TEM showed disintegration of Ru nanoparticles to smaller ones, under high H-2 pressure at the reaction temperature. Smaller Ru particles are expected to promote C-C bond cleavage thus suppressing 1,2-PDO formation. Furthermore, a relationship between the TOF value, Ru nanoparticles size, and the basic strength of the catalysts was established, which provides dipper insight into the different catalytic behavior of the catalysts.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">33</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.109</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhowmik, Susmita</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Darbha, Srinivas</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Advances in solid catalysts for selective hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1,3-propanediol</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Catalysis Reviews-Science and Engineering</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3-Propanediol</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">bifunctional metal-metal oxide catalyst</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">biomass valorization</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Glycerol</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hydrogenolysis</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JAN</style></date></pub-dates></dates><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Glycerol is one of the top 12 platform chemicals obtained from biomass. Its surplus availability as a by-product of biodiesel, fat-splitting and soap manufacturing industries and affordable price lends significant opportunity for its valorization, using solid catalysts, into propanediols (PDOs), particularly to 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO), by selective hydrogenolysis. 1,3-PDO is an important chemical with wide applications including that as a precursor in polymers manufacturing. However, the synthesis of 1,3-PDO by selective cleavage of the secondary C-O bond of glycerol in the presence of hydrogen (instead of the primary C-O bond yielding 1,2-PDO) is highly challenging. Of late, supported Pt and Ir catalysts in combination with a reducible oxide (WO(x)or ReOx) were found selective for 1,3-PDO formation. Support, metals composition and additives (co-added metals) affect the performance of these catalysts. Detailed investigations revealed that metal dispersion, electronic connectivity between metal and metal oxide/support, hydrogen activation/spillover and Bronsted acidity are some parameters that influence the activity and selectivity of these bi-functional, metal-metal oxide catalysts. This review summarizes the latest advances in these solid catalysts for selective hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1,3-PDO, a monomer for advanced polymers.&lt;/p&gt;

	Diols are important class of industrial chemicals. Their synthesis from bio-resources (instead from fossil feed-stocks) is sustainable. In this study, we probed active tungsten species on Pt/W/SBA-15 catalysts for selective synthesis of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) from aqueous glycerol through a liquid-phase hydrodeoxygenation re-action. A synergistic enhancement in glycerol conversion and 1,3-PDO selectivity was observed when both Pt and W were present on the catalyst. A volcano-shape variation followed with a gradual increase in glycerol conversion and 1,3-PDO yield with W-loading (0.25-15 wt%) was observed. Pt dispersion and acidity of the catalyst dis-played similar variations with the W-loading confirming their critical role in the reaction. Structure-function relationships inferred that oligomeric WOx with moderate Bro center dot nsted acidity (predominant at 1 wt% W-loading) in contact with dispersed Pt are the active species for 1,3-PDO formation and crystalline WO3 with strong Bro center dot nsted acidity (prevalent above 4 wt% W-loading) in association with Pt nanoparticles lead to 1-propanol formation.&lt;/p&gt;

In this study, Pd-metal oxides (ZrO2, WOx, MoO3) supported on activated biochar (ABC) catalysts were developed for hydrogenolysis of lignin. The metals (2% Pd, 5% Zr, 5% W, 5% Mo) were supported on activated biochar using the wetness impregnation method, and the catalysts were extensively characterized. The effect of addition of secondary metals on active surface properties such as acidity, Pd metal particle size and dispersion were also evaluated. The selectivity to C9 monomeric phenols followed the trend: 2Pd-5Mo/ABC (57.3%) &gt; 2Pd-5Zr/ABC (49.2%) &gt; 2Pd-5W/ABC (45%) &gt; 2Pd/ABC (42.9%). The maximum C9 phenolic monomer yield achieved in this study was similar to 22 wt%. The fractional conversion of lignin was 67-69% with Pd-metal oxide catalysts. The presence of Mo in the catalyst inhibited the hydrogenation of aliphatic C-alpha = C-beta in lignin and led to the formation of t-isoeugenol, while the presence of W and Zr resulted in selective formation of the hydrogenated product, propyl guaiacol. Using model compounds, it is proved that the formation of propyl guaiacol is via hydrogenation of t-isoeugenol, and not through dehydroxylation of propanol guaiacol. The dehydroxylation activity of the catalysts is attributed to the higher Lewis acidity and electropositive nature of the metals. A notable carbon atom economy of 47-50% towards total phenolic monomers was achieved with 2Pd/ABC, 2Pd-5Mo/ABC and 2Pd-5Zr/ABC catalysts.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.609</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gurrala, L.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kumar, M.

In this study, a novel Pd-Al2O3 supported on activated biochar catalyst is developed for lignin hydrogenolysis. The catalyst characterization revealed that the (1 1 1) planes of both of Pd-0 and Al2O3 were exposed to the surface. The maximum lignin conversion of 70.4% along with high liquid yield (similar to 57 wt%) was obtained at 240 degrees C, 3 h and 3 MPa H-2 pressure. The total monomeric phenols yield in the liquid was 51.6 wt%, out of which C9 monomeric guaiacols constituted similar to 30.0 wt% with 38.0% selectivity to 4-propyl guaiacol. Using the reaction intermediate, coniferyl alcohol, chemoselective hydrogenation of C-alpha=C-beta is proved to occur over the Pd site, while dehydroxylation of C-gamma-OH is shown to occur over the alumina site. An impressive carbon atom economy of 60% was achieved for the production of monomeric phenols.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9.642</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhowmik, Susmita</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Akula, Venugopal</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sethia, Govind</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Marimuthu, Banu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Darbha, Srinivas</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Promoting effect of titanium on C-O hydrogenolysis of erythritol to 1,4-butanediol over Pt/W/Ti-SBA-15 catalysts</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Applied Catalysis A-General</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biomass conversion</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Erythritol</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hydrogenolysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polyols</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Promotional effect of Ti</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Terminal diol</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ti-SBA-15-supported Pt/W catalysts</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2023</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SEP </style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">666</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">119425</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;
	The C-O hydrogenolysis of erythritol was investigated using Pt/W/Ti-SBA-15 catalysts (4 wt% Pt, 1 wt% W and Si/Ti molar ratio = 50, 33, 20 and 10). Ti-incorporation enhanced the hydrogenolysis activity and the yield of 1,4-butanediol (1,4-BDO). A catalyst with Si/Ti = 20 afforded erythritol conversion of 94 mol% with 1,4-BDO yield of 32.6 mol% and total BDOs yield of 51.7 mol% at 190 degrees C, 50 bar H2 and 12 h. For the catalyst with no titanium (Pt/W/SBA-15), a double the time was required to achieve such yield. There observed electronic connectivity amongst Ti, Pt and W. For the catalyst with Si/Ti = 20, a greater amount of interfacial Pt-O-W(Ti) sites with Pt in + 2 oxidation state was present. The enhanced catalytic performance of these catalysts was corresponded to dispersed Pt (that facilitate hydrogen activation and spillover) and acidic interfacial Pt-O-W sites (that promote the adsorption and hydrogenolysis of erythritol to diols).&lt;/p&gt;

	Ethylene glycol (EG) is an industrial chemical with multiple applications in polymers, anti-freeze agents, coolants, desiccants and de-icing fluids. It is prepared mainly from fossil feedstock resources. However, its manufacture from renewable sources like lignocellulosic biomass is attractive from the view points of carbon-neutrality and environmental benefits. A few industries have already ventured or committed to produce biomass-derived EG (bio-EG) on a pilot to demonstration scale. At present bio-EG is more expensive than the EG made from fossil resources. Advances are happening in developing more efficient and selective catalysts for the direct conversion of raw biomass and its hydrolysis products (cellulose and glucose) into bio-EG. This review presents the recent advances in catalysts for producing bio-EG.&lt;/p&gt;
