Demonstration of CO2 Conversion to Synthetic Transport Fuel at Flue Gas Concentrations
A mixture of 1- and 2-butanol was produced using a stepwise synthesis starting with a methyl halide. The process included a carbon dioxide utilization step to produce an acetate salt which was then converted to the butanol isomers by Claisen condensation

Effect of Endogenous and Exogenous Butyric Acid on Butanol Production From CO by Enriched Clostridia
Butanol is a potential renewable fuel. To increase the selectivity for butanol during CO fermentation, exogenous acetic acid and ethanol, exogenous butyric acid or endogenous butyric acid from glucose fermentation have been investigated using CO as ...

Phenols Removal from Hemicelluloses Pre-Hydrolysate by Laccase to Improve Butanol Production
Phenolic compounds are important inhibitors of the microorganisms used in the Acetone-Butanol-Ethanol (ABE) fermentation. The degradation of phenolic compounds in a wood pre-hydrolysate, a potential substrate for the production of ABE, was studied in ...

Activity coefficients for liquid organic reactions : towards a better understanding of true kinetics with the synthesis of jasmin aldehyde as showcase [PDF]
The aldol condensation of benzaldehyde and heptanal is taken as an example of reversible liquid phase organic reactions to show that inclusion of activity coefficients reveal distinct differences in conversion and product distribution when different ...
