“…In the context of environmental sustainability, heterogeneous catalysts such as ion-exchange resins [4], zeolites [5], ionic liquids [6,7], fly ash cenospheres [8], enzymes [9], Brønsted acids [10,11], and Lewis acids [12,13] were investigated. Apart from these reports, studies related to application of waste materials for the development of efficient catalysts are present in the literature.…”
