Bimetallische geträgerte Katalysatoren und deren Nutzung in der hydrolytischen Hydrierung celluloseartiger Materialien

The author examines the catalytic activity of bimetallic supported catalysts in the hydrodeoxygenation reaction of cellulosic materials and discusses possible bimetallic effects. The synthesized catalysts cover three distinct groups: first, Ru-based and doped carbon catalysts, second Cu- or Ni-based catalysts supported on alumina and third bimetallic Cu-Ni-alumina catalysts. Yields of up to 96% of hexitols at full conversion of cellobiose have been achieved with these systems
