Ni-Cu/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> from Layered Double Hydroxides Hydrogenates Furfural to Alcohols

The hydrogenation of furfural is an important process in the synthesis of bio-based chemicals. Copper-based catalysts favor the hydrogenation of furfural to alcohols. Catalytic activity and stability were higher at a Ni-to-Cu atomic ratio of 1:1 and 1.5:0.5 compared to 0.5:1.5. Here, we prepared Ni-...
