Journal ArticleDOI

Hierarchical porous materials: catalytic applications.

TL;DR: In this review, the phenomenon of complementary macropore incorporation into mesoporous and/or microporous solids in order to enhance their catalytic performance in fuels and chemicals synthesis is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heterogeneous catalysis for sustainable biodiesel production via esterification and transesterification

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss catalytic esterification and transesterification solutions to the clean synthesis of biodiesel, the most readily implemented and low cost, alternative source of transportation fuels to meet future societal demands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure-reactivity correlations in MgAl hydrotalcite catalysts for biodiesel synthesis

TL;DR: A series of [Mg(1−x)Alx(OH)2]x+(CO3)x/n2− hydrotalcite materials with compositions over the range x = 0.25 − 0.55 have been synthesised using an alkali-free coprecipitation route as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ag Alloyed Pd Single-Atom Catalysts for Efficient Selective Hydrogenation of Acetylene to Ethylene in Excess Ethylene

TL;DR: In this article, a series of Ag alloyed Pd single-atom catalysts, supported on silica gel, were prepared by a simple incipient wetness co-impregnation method and applied to the selective hydrogenation of acetylene in an ethylene-rich stream under conditions close to the front-end employed by industry.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of advanced catalyst development for Fischer–Tropsch synthesis of hydrocarbons from biomass derived syn-gas

TL;DR: In this article, a review of recent developments in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) catalysts with regards to optimising catalyst activity and selectivity towards synthetic fuels is presented.
