Influence of Biochar Composition and Source Material on Catalytic Performance: The Carboxylation of Glycerol with CO<sub>2</sub> as a Case Study
The impact of the chemical and physical composition of biochar catalysts is demonstrated in the carboxylation of glycerol with carbon dioxide for the first time, using acetonitrile as a dehydrating agent. Biochars are an important emerging class of catalytic material that can readily be produced fro...
