Enhanced catalytic activity and high stability of treated Pt-Ru/ zeolite Y catalysts for levulinic acid hydrogenation reaction

Bifunctional Pt-Ru/zeolite Y catalysts were prepared by ethylene glycol reduction (EGR) method, with 3 wt% of Pt and various ratios of Ru. The performance of catalysts was investigated for hydrogenation of levulinic acid (LA) to produce gamma-valerolactone (GVL). Catalysts were thermally treated in...
