Nanoarchitectonics of phosphomolybdic acid supported on activated charcoal for selective conversion of furfuryl alcohol and levulinic acid to alkyl levulinates

Sulphonated Carbon Dots Synthesized Through a One‐Pot, Facile and Scalable Protocol Facilitates the Preparation of Renewable Precursors Using Glucose/Levulinic Acid

“…However, it exhibits a relatively lower cetane number than diesel. [36] A typical LA esterification reaction achieves a near-complete conversion under acidic conditions at 120 °C up to 2 h. [37] Heteropolyacid, [38] zeolites, [39] metal oxides, [40] sulphonic acid-functionalized materials [41] are the prominent solid-acid catalysts for the LA esterification. In a variety, in the present study, the sulphonic acid functionalized CDs was developed by using the cheap ptoluenesulphonic acid (PTSA) precursor by following a one-pot thermalization procedure.…”

Deep eutectic solvothermal NiS2/CdS synthesis for the visible-light-driven valorization of the biomass intermediate 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) integrated with H2 production

“…Furfuryl alcohol (biomass derivative) as an analog of HMF can be converted to valuable platform chemicals through high-temperature catalysis in the solution. 42 To check the broad scope, we selected furfural alcohol for photocatalytic conversion on 10% NiS 2 /CdS nanocrystals. Furfural alcohol (one of the biomass derivatives) has been converted to valuable platform chemicals biomass derivatives through high-temperature catalysis in the solution.…”

Application of nanoarchitectonics in moist-electric generation

“…In addition, surface modification of materials is an important part of research for MEGs. The surface functional groups of inorganic nanomaterials are easy to control, and the abundant surface charges enable the charge separation of water molecules after the addition of moisture, which contributes to a more efficient generation of electric energy [1,2,[34][35][36][37][38].…”
