In this work, the renewable synthesis of p-xylene (PX) from biomass-derived carbohydrates
has been reviewed. PX is a crucial chemical feedstock and an essential starting material of …

The continued expansion of plastics production all over the world entrenches modern
societies and life styles deeper in the dependence on fossil resources. This research note …

Non-oxidative alkane dehydrogenation produces alkene and hydrogen products. The
current processes face three challenges: limited conversion due to thermodynamics, rapid …

Summary Herein, we present (E)-selective transfer semihydrogenation of alkynes based on
an iridium complex in situ generated from [Ir (COD) Cl] 2 and an unsymmetrical (bearing two …

In this account, we present an overview of existing and emerging olefin production
technologies, comparing them from the standpoint of carbon intensity, efficiency, feedstock …

We examine the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane (ODHE) using a one-dimensional
finite heat dispersion model and present a comprehensive ignition-extinction analysis of the …

Using oil, gas, and coal to produce platform chemicals on an enormous scale, the
petrochemical industry constitutes a core part of the global energy order. Given demand …

A rigorous kinetic study of the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) reaction of propane on a
vanadium oxide-based submicron diameter fiber catalyst has been developed. The …

The use of heavier feedstocks, or even the possibility of direct conversion of crude oil into
chemicals has created new challenges for the steam cracking process, as severe fouling in …

In this paper, promoter effect of strontium over V catalysts supported on physically mixed
Nb2O5–Al2O3 was evaluated for the propane oxidative dehydrogenation to propene. The …
