Atikhun Chottiratanachote,Manaswee Suttipong,Umer Rashid,Vudhichai Parasuk,Junko N. Kondo,Toshiyuki Yokoi,Ali Alsalme,Chawalit Ngamcharussrivichai +7 more
TL;DR: In this article , aldol condensation of furfural and 2-butanone using MgAl mixed oxides as heterogeneous acid-base catalysts was investigated. And the results indicated that the methylene enolate ion of 2-Butanone is the kinetically favorable intermediate on an MgO(100) as a model oxide surface.

TL;DR: Investigation of the application options of the char produced from gasification plants revealed that the dual-stage char-derived mesoporous catalyst (DSC-SO4) with higher specific surface area and acidic properties provided higher catalytic activity for fatty acid methyl esters production from waste cooking oil (WCO) than the mesoporus catalyst obtained from char produced by rising co-current gasification (RCC-SO 4).
