Glycerol is a valuable byproduct in biodiesel production by transesterification, soap
manufacturing by saponification as well as hydrolysis reaction. The purity of glycerol …

Biomass, a hydrocarbon material mainly consisting of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen,
and minerals, is considered an ideal renewable resource given its abundance, its lower …

Catalysts with active phase Ni, Co or Cu supported on γ-alumina were synthesized at
constant loading (8 wt.%) and tested for the glycerol steam reforming reaction (GSR). The …

The steam reforming of the main biodiesel by-product, glycerol, has been catching up the
interest of the scientific community in the last years. The use of glycerol for hydrogen …

Glycerol is a by-product of biodiesel obtained from biomass, accounting for 10% of the
biodiesel production. In the context of a green economy, aiming for a reduction of the …

The objective of this review is to analyze potential technologies and their baseline
performance of producing hydrogen from catalytic steam reforming of biodiesel byproduct …

Kinetically coupled reactions of glycerol in water over bifunctional Pt/Al2O3 catalysts are
explored as a function of the Pt particle size and the reaction conditions. Detailed analysis of …

A comparative study of the GSR performance for Ni/CaO-MgO-Al 2 O 3 and Ni/Al 2 O 3
catalysts is reported. Catalysts were synthesized applying the wet impregnation method at a …

Dry reforming of methane is one of the few chemical reactions which can effectively convert
carbon dioxide (CO 2), a major green-house gas, into a valuable chemical precursor …

This paper describes an investigation regarding the influence of Ni precursors on catalytic
performances of Ni/Al2O3 catalysts in glycerol steam reforming. A series of Ni/Al2O3 is …
