“…Recently, many novel heterogeneous acids have been used to catalyze the dehydration reaction. Jain et al (2015) revealed that mesoporous zirconium phosphate exhibited excellent activity for HMF formation in H2O-diglyme medium, and 80% HMF yield was achieved. Xu et al (2015a) also used the same catalyst in DMSO for HMF production with 79.6% HMF selectivity.…”

Selective conversion of biomass-derived carbohydrates into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is of great significance for biomass conversion. In this study, a novel solid Brønsted acid was prepared simply by the copolymerization of paraformaldehyde and p-toluenesulfonic acid and then used to catalyze the conversion of various carbohydrates into HMF in γ-valerolactone-water (GVL/H2O) reaction medium for the first time. The catalyst exhibited strong acidity, good water resistance, and high thermal stability. The present work focuses on the effects of various reaction parameters, including reaction temperature, time, water concentration, solvent, fructose level, and catalyst loading, on fructose dehydration. The catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic performance for HMF production from fructose in GVL and furnished a high HMF yield of 78.1% at 130 °C in 30 min. The recycling experiments suggested that the solid acid catalyst could be recycled at least seven times without a noticeable decrease in the catalytic activity. In addition, an attempt to study the one-step conversion of sucrose, glucose, and cellulose into HMF and furfural was performed using the same catalytic system.

“…Also, Mugweru and collaborators examined the catalytic activity of a m-ZrP, prepared by a post-synthesis method (specific surface area of 407 m 2 g −1 , pore size in the range 2-3 nm), in the conversion of fructose, glucose, and sucrose to 5-Hydroxymethyl-2-furfural (HMF) under various reaction conditions [25]. The best results were obtained by using fructose as substrate, in a water-diglyme solvent system (1:3, v/v), in the presence of NaCl as a co-catalyst (because of the improvement of the partitioning of HMF into the extracting phase by means of the salting out effect), and at 150 • C: in these conditions, the HMF yield reached 80%.…”

An overview on the developments of zirconium phosphate (ZrP) and its organic derivatives in heterogeneous catalysis in recent years is reported in the present review. Two basic aspects have been emphasized: first, the catalytic properties of zirconium phosphates were discussed, with particular attention to the effect of surface acidity and hydrophobic/hydrophilic character, textural properties, and particle morphology on the catalytic performances. Then, the use of zirconium phosphates as support for catalytic active species was reported, including organometallic complexes, metal ions, noble metal, and metal oxide nanoparticles. Zirconium phosphate plays, in those cases, a dual role, since it promotes the dispersion and stabilization of the catalysts, thanks to their interaction with the active sites on the surface of ZrP, and facilitates the recovery and reuse of the catalytic species due to their immobilization on the solid support.

Calcium phosphate is an important material used in ion exchangers and adsorbents. In this work, calcium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate, CaHPO 4 •2H 2 O, was prepared from calcium nitrate solution and phosphoric acid. This phosphate transformed to calcium hydrogen phosphate un-hydrate, CaHPO 4 , by heating at 200ºC, and calcium pyrophosphate, Ca 2 P 2 O 7 , by heating at 400 and 700ºC. These calcium phosphates were used to remove trivalent iron cation, Fe 3+ in solution. Samples without heating and those heated at 200ºC indicated a high iron removal ratio. By the addition of these calcium phosphates and stirring for 5 minutes, a high ratio of iron cation was removed from the solution. This removal depended not only on the substitution of calcium to iron, but also on the precipitation of iron hydroxide. Calcium phosphates were also used to remove copper and nickel cations, Cu 2+ and Ni 2+. The removal ratios of copper and nickel cations were lower than those of iron cation.
