Using acetal-stabilized lignin we performed a truly steady state continuous high-yielding lignin depolymerization (45% monophenolics using Ni/C), which offered a window into challenges and opportunities that will be faced when processing this feedstock. Wi ...

Tailoring the interfacial sites between metals and metal oxides can be an essential tool in designing heterogeneous catalysts. These interfacial sites play a vital role in many renewable applications, for instance, catalytic CO2 reduction. Postsynthesis de ...

Metal oxide deposition is an emerging synthetic technique for designing heterogeneous catalysts. Depositing a nanoscale overcoat of metal oxide on heterogeneous catalysts can modify their structural and chemical characteristics. Many deposition approaches, ...

Catalyst overcoating is an emerging approach to engineer surface functionalities on supported metal catalyst and improve catalyst selectivity and durability. Alumina deposition on high surface area material by sol–gel chemistry is traditionally difficult t ...

Heterogeneous catalysis has long been a workhorse for the chemical industry and will likely play a key role in the emerging area of renewable chemistry. However, renewable molecule streams pose unique challenges for heterogeneous catalysis due to their hig ...

Advances in the synthetic control of surface nanostructures could improve the activity, selectivity and stability of heterogeneous catalysts. Here, we present a technique for the controlled deposition of TiO2 overcoats based on non-hydrolytic sol-gel chemi ...

Cu-Al spinet oxide is a highly active catalyst for CO2 conversion to CO. However, it suffers from low surface area. By depositing a silica layer, we protected the catalyst surface and preserved the Cu2+ ions during the calcination process. These ions form ...
