Catalyst choice impacts aromatic monomer yields and selectivity in hydrogen-free reductive catalytic fractionation

Catalyst choice impacts aromatic monomer yields and selectivity in hydrogen-free reductive catalytic fractionation

Hydrogen-free reductive catalytic fractionation (RCF) is a promising method to extract and depolymerize lignin from native biomass without the use of external hydrogen gas. Here, we show that Pt/C and Pd/C achieve comparable monomer yields regardless of hydrogen pressure, whereas Ru/C and Ni/C show...
