Lignin-derived bio-oil required upgrades to reduce its oxygen functionalities to produce high
quality liquid fuel that is comparable to those of petroleum source. Hydrodeoxygenation is a …

Jet turbine fuels have not been completely replaced by biomass-derived fuels due, in part, to
the lack of the aromatic and cycloalkane hydrocarbons in bio-jet fuels. Such molecules play …

Research development of processes for refining bio‐oils is becoming increasingly popular.
One issue that these processes possess is their high requirement for H2 gas. In response …

The selective demethylation of aryl methyl ethers is a reaction of high relevance both in the
context of deprotection in organic syntheses as well as in the modification of lignin and lignin …

The increasing depletion of oil resources and the environmental problems caused by using
much fossil energy in the rapid development of society. The bio-oil becomes a promising …

Molybdenum carbide catalysts supported on carbon nanofibers (β-Mo 2 C/CNF) were
synthetized employing different carburization parameters: five temperatures (550–750° C) …

Lignin is the only renewable aromatic material in nature and contains a large number of
oxygen-containing functional groups. High-value and green utilization of “lignin-to …

We discuss the evolution of catalytic function of interstitial transition metal formulations as a
result of bulk and surface structure modifications via alteration of synthesis and reaction …

Transition-metal carbides (TMCs) are important materials for a variety of applications and
industrial processes, in part because of their variable crystal structures and surfaces …

Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of bio-oils, lignin and their model compounds is summarized in
this review. The main emphasis is put on elucidating the reaction network, catalyst stability …
