Ru/C‐Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Aqueous Glycolic Acid from Microalgae – Influence of pH and Biologically Relevant Additives

Abstract Ethylene glycol (EG) is obtained by a novel, two‐step approach combining a biotechnological and a heterogeneously catalyzed step. First, microalgae are cultivated to photobiocatalytically yield glycolic acid (GA) by means of photosynthesis from CO2 and water. GA is continuously excreted int...
