Hydrogenation of Furfural to Furfuryl Alcohol over <i>Ru</i> Particles Supported on Mildly Oxidized Biochar

Catalytic hydrogenation of aldehydes is required as the stabilizing step in bio-oils conversion. Ruthenium supported on carbon was used in the present work for hydrogenation of furfural (FF) to furfuryl alcohol (FA). Converting a biochar with no surface area and low carboxyl groups surface density t...
