Glucose-derived carbon materials were synthesized and used to support Ru–W bimetallic catalysts that provide the one-pot conversion of cellulose to ethylene glycol (EG). The catalysts prepared on the carbonized glucose (after hydrothermal synthesis and carbonization) were the most efficient for the production of EG, with yields around 30% after 5 h. Moreover, the addition of oxygenated groups to the...
Sorbitol and xylitol yields can be improved by converting cellulose and xylan simultaneously, due to a synergetic effect between both substrates. Furthermore, both yields can be greatly enhanced by simply adjusting the reaction conditions regarding the optimum for the production of each product, since xylitol (from xylan) and sorbitol (from cellulose) yields are maximized when the reaction is carried...
Ruthenium-based catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation of different supports and characterized by TPR, TEM, ICP and N2 adsorption at −196°C. The catalytic performances of the catalysts were evaluated in the hydrolytic hydrogenation of cellulose. The prepared catalysts were highly efficient, allowing conversions of cellulose higher than 75% after 5h of reaction. The highest selectivity...
