Abstract
Catalysts play a critical role in the selective conversion of furfural (FAL) in the aqueous-phase hydrogenation-rearrangement tandem reaction (AP-HRT). Herein, the N-doped bimetallic Ni-Co@NOMC was synthesized by solvent volatilization self-assembly method. The morphology and structure of the APF precursors were effectively controlled through adjustments in the synthesis and the presence of numerous pore channels and the substantial specific surface areas contributed to enhancing catalytic efficiency. Furthermore, this study also examined the synergistic interaction between the acid-base sites of the novel mesoporous N-doped carbon (NOMC) carrier and metal active sites to advance the succession of the furan ring hydrogenation and rearrangement processes. Specifically, the 99.9 % conversion of 8 wt% FAL solution was successfully accomplished with the 90.5 % selectivity of cyclopentanone catalyzed by 1.2-Ni-Co@NOMC catalysts. Therefore, this research holds significant importance for advancing the sustainable utilization of biomass resources in the future.
期刊介绍:
Applied Catalysis A: General publishes original papers on all aspects of catalysis of basic and practical interest to chemical scientists in both industrial and academic fields, with an emphasis onnew understanding of catalysts and catalytic reactions, new catalytic materials, new techniques, and new processes, especially those that have potential practical implications.
Papers that report results of a thorough study or optimization of systems or processes that are well understood, widely studied, or minor variations of known ones are discouraged. Authors should include statements in a separate section "Justification for Publication" of how the manuscript fits the scope of the journal in the cover letter to the editors. Submissions without such justification will be rejected without review.
