Production of Butane from Methyl Ethyl Ketone over Pt/Al2O3
Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) was catalytically converted to butane directly in one step over platinum (Pt) supported on alumina (Al2O3). The reaction was performed in the gas phase in a fixed bed reactor.

ZnO/ionic liquid catalyzed biodiesel production from renewable and waste lipids as feedstocks [PDF]
A new protocol for biodiesel production is proposed, based on a binary ZnO/TBAI (TBAI = tetrabutylammonium iodide) catalytic system. Zinc oxide acts as a heterogeneous, bifunctional Lewis acid/base catalyst, while TBAI plays the role of phase transfer ...

Hydrodeoxygenation of Phenol as a Model Compound by Ni2P/HBeta-SBA-15
The stable silica sieve-based HBeta-SBA-15 catalyst-carrier was successfully prepared by a hydrothermal synthesis method, and then Ni2P/HBeta-SBA-15 new hydrodeoxygenation catalyst was successfully loaded by the equal volume impregnation method.

Platinum catalyzed hydrodeoxygenation of guaiacol in illumination of cresol production: a density functional theory study [PDF]
The unprocessed bio-oil obtained by the pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass comprises hundreds of oxy-components which vitiate its quality in terms of low heating value, low stability, low pH, etc.

Abstract Synthetic jet fuel containing non‐petroleum‐derived kerosene can be produced from synthetic kerosene obtained through processes that include a hydroprocessing step. The potential use of non‐sulphided (reduced) nickel supported on alumina (Ni/Al2O3) was evaluated as an alternative to sulphided catalysts to saturate alkenes in sulphur‐free ...

Research advances in multifunctional catalysts for the conversion of lignin to biomass fuels
The development of biomass fuels is of great significance for reducing excessive dependence on fossil resources and global warming. Lignin is a complex aromatic biopolymer that is abundant in nature and can be used to produce high-value biomass fuels ...
