Abstract:
Disclosed is a Lewis acid catalyst for preparation of toluene from 2-methylfuran and a method for preparing toluene from 2-methylfuran by using the same. The catalyst is a zeolite catalyst ion-exchanged with a metal or a metal halide catalyst. The catalyst accelerates the cycloaddition of 2-methylfuran with ethylene and inhibits oligomerization as a side reaction, and thus allows production of toluene from 2-methylfuran with high yield and high selectivity.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to catalysts supported on a modified-carrier for oxidative coupling reaction of methane and a method for oxidative coupling reaction of methane using the same. The catalysts in which sodium tungstate is supported on a delaminated zeolite carrier increase the methane conversion rate and the selectivity to C2+ hydrocarbon compounds and thereby improve the reactivity of the oxidative coupling reaction of methane.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for producing glycidol by successive catalytic reactions. The method includes a series of reactions for the preparation of glycerol carbonate from glycerol and the decarboxylation of the glycerol carbonate. Specifically, the method includes i) reacting glycerol with a dialkyl carbonate to prepare glycerol carbonate, and ii) subjecting the glycerol carbonate to decarboxylation wherein a base is added as a catalyst in step i) and is allowed to react with an acid to form a metal salt after step i), and the salt is used as a catalyst in step ii). According to the method, inexpensive and easy-to-purchase acid and base catalysts can be used to produce glycidol from glycerol, a by-product of biodiesel production, as a starting material in high yield with high selectivity in a convenient, simple, and environmentally friendly way. In addition, the method eliminates the need to separate the base catalyst.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for deoxygenating an oxygenated hydrocarbon compound using a hydrogenation catalyst of immersing a metal in a carrier comprising a metal oxide and a hydrodeoxygenation catalyst of immersing a metal in a carrier comprising a metal oxide. It is possible to increase deoxygenation efficiency by combining the hydrogenation catalyst and the hydrodeoxygenation catalyst.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a calcium salts-supported metal catalyst, a method for preparing the same, and a method for the hydrodeoxygenation reaction of oxygenates using the same. The catalyst, in which a metal catalyst is supported on a carrier of a calcium salt, for example, calcium carbonate, has the effect of increasing the efficiency of hydrodeoxygenation reaction of oxygenates.

Abstract:
Disclosed are a heteropolyacid catalyst for producing gamma-valerolactone, which is supported on M-Beta zeolite (M=Sn, Ti, Zr or Hf), and a method for preparing the same and a method for manufacturing gamma-valerolactone using the catalyst. The catalyst has an effect of producing gamma-valerolactone from biomass-derived furfural at a high yield through a one-pot process.
