Abstract:Higher alcohol synthesis (HAS) has attracted much attention owing to the wide use of C 2+ OH as a synthetic fuel, an alternative fuel additive, a hydrogen carrier, and a versatile platform molecule. Using homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts, HAS can be produced from syngas (H 2 and CO) derived from nonfood-based lignocellulosic biomass, oil residues, coal, natural gas, and solid or liquid carbonaceous waste products. Although much effort has been devoted to maximizing the yield of C 2+ OH using noble-and n… Show more
