Structure effect of activated carbon in Ru/AC catalysts for hydrogenation of phthalates

Ultrasound-assisted low-temperature catalytic lignin-first depolymerization of pine wood biomass to selectively produce propyl guaiacol

“…No diffraction peak corresponding to metallic Ru was observed for Ru/ACC, and this can be attributed to the low loading or relatively smaller particle size of Ru as compared to Ni, Pt and Pd. 41 The surface area values of ACC and metal loaded ACC catalysts were measured using multipoint BET and t-plot methods. The pores in ACC were distributed predominantly in the micropores (74%) compared to those over the surface (26%) (Table 1).…”

Catalytic upcycling of PVC waste-derived phthalate esters into safe, hydrogenated plasticizers

“…[24][25][26][27][28][29] The conversion of virgin phthalates (single, pure compounds) into dialkyl 1,2-cyclohexanedicarboxylate esters has been studied in open and patent literature, generally using supported noble metal catalysts operating at an elevated temperature (70-140 °C) and under high hydrogen pressures (60-200 bar). 14,[30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39] In fact, this conversion has been industrially implemented, with a yearly production exceeding 200 000 ton (in 2014). [40][41][42] Additionally, Ni-based systems, demanding even more rigorous conditions, have also been investigated to a limited extent.…”

Catalytic decomposition of hydrazine nitrate and hydroxylamine nitrate in radioactive nitric acid waste liquid using Ru/AC catalyst

“…As a result, the Ru/AC catalyst has gained extensive utilization and investigation across diverse fields. [15][16][17][18] However, there is limited research on the application of Ru catalysts in the catalytic decomposition of HAN and HN. 6 Therefore, in this study, a 5 wt% Ru/AC catalyst was prepared using the impregnation method and its activity was evaluated.…”
