Tuning the zeolite acidity enables selectivity control by suppressing ketene formation in lignin catalytic pyrolysis
Abstract Unveiling catalytic mechanisms at a molecular level aids rational catalyst design and selectivity control for process optimization. In this study, we find that the Brønsted acid site density of the zeolite catalyst efficiently controls the guaiacol catalytic pyrolysis mechanism. Guaiacol de...
