Acetalisation of biomass derived glycerol was performed with acetone over zirconia and
promoted zirconia catalysts to synthesize solketal. The catalytic experiments were carried …

Green biofuels are equivalent to hydrocarbon-based motor fuels and compatible with
existing refinery infrastructures and combustion engines. Therefore, sustainable production …

Sulfated metal oxides have long been reported to exhibit enhanced acidity properties, which
in turn affect reactivity. In this study, sulfated SnO 2, TiO 2 and ZrO 2 of varying acidic …

With growing interest in hydrogen fuel cell applications, novel and robust water–gas shift
(WGS) industrial catalysts are required with high activity, preferably at low-temperatures …

The development and use of reusable solid catalysts for the selective organic transformation
in solvent‐free or environmentally benign solvent media is the key interest of modern frontier …

NiCoB has been reported to be a good catalyst for the hydrogenation of p-
chloronitrobenzene (p-CNB). However, it aggregates easily. In this study, a series of …

This chapter provides a comprehensive description of the recent advances in the field of
tungsten-containing heterogeneous catalysts for green catalytic oxidation processes. This …

Zirconia supported WOx clusters with high acid strength and good stability are important
solid acid catalysts in many reactions. However, conventional synthetic methods such as …

The present work focused on investigation of different modifiers, such as Si, Al, Bi, and Pb on
the tungstated zirconia catalysts. First, the different modifier precursors were introduced onto …

Samples of tungsten-modified borated zirconia were prepared to be used as catalyst in 2-
phenoxyethanol acetylation. The borated zirconias were obtained by impregnation of two …
