Construction of a highly active and water-resistant Ni-based catalyst for the HDO reaction of phenol

Abstract

Aqueous-phase hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of biomass-derived phenolic compounds is considered as one of the most promising ways to convert biomass into fuels and value-added chemicals. The aim of this study is...

Effect of P on hydrodeoxygenation performance of Ni–P/SiO2 catalysts for upgrading of m-cresol

“…With the increase of pressure, the selectivity towards MB decreases from 17.6% to 2.4%, while the selectivity of MCH increases obviously from 70.1% to 95.1%, which indicates that the DDO pathway is more favorable at low pressure, and high pressure promotes the HYD pathway. Similar results were also reported by Wang et al 76 and Teles et al 77…”

“…With the increase of pressure, the selectivity towards MB decreases from 17.6% to 2.4%, while the selectivity of MCH increases obviously from 70.1% to 95.1%, which indicates that the DDO pathway is more favorable at low pressure, and high pressure promotes the HYD pathway. Similar results were also reported by Wang et al 76 and Teles et al x catalyst shows poor MB hydrogenation activity, and the conversion is lower than 20%, which demonstrates that only a small amount of MCH can be obtained from MB hydrogenation. Moreover, it can be observed from Fig.…”
