[ES] Transformación de ácidos carboxílicos procedentes de la biomasa en productos químicos y keroseno. Se estudió la descarboxilación cetónica del ácido decanoico sobre diversos óxidos metálicos y de diferentes ácidos ...
Carbon-carbon bond formations and deoxygenation reactions are important for biomass up-grading. The classical ketonic decarboxylation of carboxylic acids provides symmetrical ketones with 2n+1 carbon atoms and eliminates ...

[EN] The kinetics of the ketonic decarboxylation of linear and branched carboxylic acids over m-ZrO2 as a catalyst has been investigated. The same apparent activation energy is experimentally determined for the ketonic ...
[EN] The organic fraction of municipal solid waste was identified as an alternative phosphorus resource: hydrothermal carbonization provided phosphorus-rich hydrochar. Two alternative valorization pathways can be considered ...
