Catalytic reduction of water contaminants using palladium (Pd)-based catalysts and
hydrogen gas as a reductant has been extensively studied at the bench-scale, but due to …

Raney Ni is a class of fine-grained heterogeneous catalysts composed mostly of nickel that
is widely applied in organic synthesis and a large number of industry processes. In the past …

Historically, development of catalysts for treatment of nitrate-contaminated water has
focused on supported Pd-based catalysts, but high costs of the Pd present a barrier to …

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 …

Dry reforming of methane (DRM) represents an alluring approach to the direct conversion of
CO 2 and CH 4, gases with the highest global warming potential, into syngas, a value-added …

Proper disposal of spent bleaching earth (SBE) is much anticipated to create a circular
