Conversion of highly concentrated cellulose to 1,2-propanediol and ethylene glycol over
highly efficient CuCr catalysts - Green Chemistry (RSC Publishing) DOI:10.1039/C3GC40134K …

Abstract The performance of Cu/SiO 2 (commercial silica gel, SBA-15 and SBA-15 treated at
900° C) catalysts for the hydrogenolysis of glycerol to propylene glycol is investigated with …

In the last two decades, various glycerol value addition techniques have been developed
and discussed in the literature. Among all these processes, conversion of glycerol to 1, 2 …

The kinetics of glycerol hydrogenolysis reaction to 1, 2-propanediol was studied over a
stable 18 wt% Cu supported on commercial silica gel catalyst in a batch reactor. This …

The Cu–Fe catalysts with stoichiometric proportion (Cu/Fe molar ratio was 0.5) were
prepared by an epoxide assisted route. The structural properties of Cu–Fe catalysts were …

Abstract Active species of Cu-Cr catalysts, prepared by an epoxide-assisted sol–gel route,
were investigated for the hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1, 2-propanediol. Structural …

Supported Cu–Cr catalysts were prepared by a non-alkoxide sol–gel route, and
characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy …

The utilization of CO2 attracts much research attention because of global warming. The
CO2/epoxide cycloaddition reaction is one technique of CO2 utilization. However …
