Solvent effects in integrated reaction-separation process of liquid-phase hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alcohol over CuAl2O4 catalysts

Solvent effects in integrated reaction-separation process of liquid-phase hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alcohol over CuAl2O4 catalysts

Selective hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alcohol over CuAl2O4 catalysts is studied in a batch reactor using a range of solvents of varying chemical properties. We find that the reactions in branched alcohols provide higher furfuryl alcohol yields compared to linear alcohols. Besides, the reac...
