Cyclodehydration of 1,4-butanediol over Zr-Al Catalysts: Effect of Reaction Medium
The conversion of 1,4-butanediol (BDO) to tetrahydrofuran (THF) in aqueous phase is desirable because BDO production technology is shifting to bio-based aqueous fermentation routes. In this study, liquid-phase cyclodehydration of BDO to THF was studied in two reaction media (pure BDO and aqueous BDO...
