Carbon neutral biosources are sought for the protection of the environment and to meet the
energy needs of the growing population. For instance, lubricants are required in huge …

Adsorptive, catalytic, and antibacterial properties of clinoptilolite-rich tuffs (ZT) are presented
here. ZT transformed into Fe-containing ZT (Fe-ZT) removes various organic and inorganic …

In this work, a series of novel-SO 3 H functionalized biochar materials were prepared and
investigated for the first time as catalysts for the production of fuel additive ethyl levulinate …

Novel Brønsted acid functionalized phthalocyanine on perylene diimide framework knotted
with ionic liquid (BAFPcPDIL) was synthesized and confirmed by instrumentation …

Levulinic acid (LA) is a promising renewable platform compound derived from biomass for
the manufacture of various valuable chemicals, among which levulinate esters have been …

Reactive distillation (RD) column is one of the important equipment to improve the reaction
conversion limited by the chemical equilibrium, however, the application in industrial scale is …

In this study, sulfonic acid-functionalized lignin-montmorillonite complex (LMT-SO 3 H) was
prepared and employed as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the esterification of …

Levulinate compounds are considered as a potential energy chemical and bio-lubricant of
the present century due to extraordinary application in fuel blending which improves the …

The present study focuses on clinoptilolite (CLI)-rich natural zeolitic tuffs and their
photocatalytic activity in the degradation of cationic organic dyes. CLI from different regions …

A simple preparation of sulfonated-silica/carbon (SiO 2/C–SO 3 H) composites from rice
