Summary: Supported Ru catalysts prepared from different Ru precursors were used for the hydrogenation of benzaldehyde, resulting in high yield of benzyl alcohol. The catalyst exhibited moderate acidic and basic nature, which was favorable for controlling the selectivity of benzyl alcohol. Highly dispersed Ru nanoparticles showed effective performance for the hydrogenation of benzaldehyde. The Ru-CO/HT catalyst demonstrated good tolerance towards different functional groups and maintained stability until the 7th recycling cycle.

Summary: This study reports the reduction of biomass-derived oxygenated compounds in water through magnetically induced catalysis. Non-coated and carbon-coated core-shell FeCo@Ni magnetic nanoparticles were used as both the heating agent and the catalyst. The product distribution could be controlled by adjusting the field amplitude during the magnetic catalysis. Furthermore, encapsulating the magnetic nanoparticles in carbon greatly improved the stability of the magnetic catalyst in solution, allowing for multiple reuses.

Summary: Achieving high selectivity, conversion, and rate in the industrially important selective hydrogenation of a,b-unsaturated aldehydes is challenging. Previous approaches have sacrificed activity for selectivity towards unsaturated alcohol or saturated aldehyde. However, this study demonstrates that combining Ni nanoparticles (NiNP) and Ru single atoms (RuSA) on CNTs allows for improved hydrocinnamaldehyde selectivity without compromising activity. The resulting catalyst shows 94% selectivity at 99% conversion and has good stability in continuous flow conditions. Insights into the cooperative catalysis mechanism between NiNP and RuSA were obtained through density functional theory calculations.

Summary: The conversion of guaiacol and diphenyl ether with high selectivity towards hydrocarbons was achieved using a ruthenium oxide-based catalyst on a micro-mesoporous support. The acidity of the support played a crucial role in the deoxygenation process, while the catalyst surface influenced the hydrogenation of bulk molecules. The micro-mesoporous RuO2/ZM catalyst showed the best catalytic performance.

Summary: The problem of CO2 waste in the atmosphere is a major concern, and methods of CO2 utilization are being currently developed. In this study, a plasma-catalytic process is used to dissociate CO2. A series of catalysts containing MgO and CeO2 were synthesized, and their properties were characterized. It was found that the catalyst surface, composition, and phase content remained unchanged under dielectric barrier discharge conditions. The excellent catalytic activity of the MgCe-Al sample was attributed to the combination of weak basic sites and oxygen vacancies on the catalyst surface.

Summary: The study investigates the hydrogenation of CO2 using catalysts supported on biochar. Bimetallic iron-cobalt catalysts were found to have better catalytic performance compared to monometallic iron and cobalt catalysts. The optimal performance was achieved with an iron to cobalt ratio of 3:1. The composition and genesis of the active phase in the bimetallic catalyst were identified, and a CO2 hydrogenation mechanism was proposed for the iron-dominated bimetallic catalyst. The use of biochar as a support was found to promote the formation of an active phase favorable for CO2 hydrogenation.

Summary: This study demonstrates the relationship between mercaptan content in straight-run jet fuel and the operation conditions of column C-1 in the primary oil refining plant. Increasing the temperature at the bottom of column C-1 leads to the decomposition of unstable sulfur compounds, resulting in the removal of mercaptans and hydrogen sulfide with the gasoline fraction in column C-1. This reduces the mercaptan content in straight-run kerosene. A comparison of mercaptan contents in narrow oil fractions and straight-run jet fuel reveals that the latter has higher mercaptan content, which can originate from both the oil itself and the decomposition of unstable sulfur compounds, primarily disulfides.

The catalyst shows high activity (>95% naphthalene conversion) in the presence of 1 wt % quinoline. Increasing the amount of the sulfiding agent leads to a decrease in selectivity with respect to decalins.
