Catalytic Oxidative Dehydration of Butanol Isomers: 1-Butanol, 2-Butanol, and Isobutanol

2011
Abstract : The catalytic production of economically important four-carbon olefins was achieved through catalytic oxidative dehydration of 1-butanol, 2-butanol, and isobutanol using a millisecond contact time reactor. Both alumina foam and rhodium-alumina foam catalysts convert these four-carbon alcohols into four-carbon olefins, with contact time equal

A novel anti-browning agent 3-mercapto-2-butanol for inhibition of fresh-cut potato browning

, 2020
Enzymatic browning is one of the essential issues affecting the quality of fresh-cut produce. In this study, we identified a novel, safe, and effective anti-browning agent, 3-mercapto-2-butanol, which can prevent fresh-cut potatoes from browning for 5 d ...

Acetone-butanol fermentation of lignocellulosic hydrolysates for the butanol production

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2017
It is known that the use of lignocellulosic hydrolysates reduces the production cost of biofuel such as biobutanol and bioethanol. But for the most successful application of the hydrolysates for the biofuel production, it is necessary to apply an inexpensive and effective detoxification method and to use of cost-effective growth factors. In the present
