Direct cascade hydrogenation of biorenewable levulinic acid to valeric acid biofuel additives over metal (M = Nb, Ti, and Zr) supported SBA-15 catalysts

Direct cascade hydrogenation of biorenewable levulinic acid to valeric acid biofuel additives over metal (M = Nb, Ti, and Zr) supported SBA-15 catalysts

Chemoselective hydrogenation of biomass platform molecules into value-added chemicals and fuels is essential for the exploitation of biomass, and SBA-15 based metal catalysts with hydrogenation centers and acid sites seem promising in this regard. Valeric acid (VA) is the most important platform mol...
