A study of metal phosphides for the hydrodeoxygenation of phenols and pyrolysis oil
This dissertation addresses the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of the model compound 4-methylphenol and pyrolysis oil, over alternative, non-sulfided catalysts. The HDO of 4-methylphenol was studied over unsupported, low surface area MoS₂, MoO₂, MoO₃, and MoP catalysts. The initial turn over frequency (TO...
