To develop an efficient and feasible catalyst for converting inedible vegetable oil to green biodiesel via a one-step decarboxylation process, a series of Ni-based MgO-Al 2 O 3 catalysts with different active Ni species were fabricated by adjusting the various Ni loading amounts (2.5–20%) and applied to the catalytic deoxygenation of OA to generate green biodiesel. Additionally, the structure-property relationship, deactivation mechanism and regeneration performance were also evaluated via various characterization technologies (XRD, BET, NH 3 -TPD, H 2 -TPR, XPS, SEM-EDX, HRTEM, TGA, Raman as well as GC/MS and UV-fluorescence spectra). The experimental results indicated that Ni introduction obviously enhanced the conversion ratio. Ni (10%)/MgO-Al 2 O 3 catalysts exhibited excellent catalytic performance with the highest HCs (95.12%), olefin content (57.37%) and green biodiesel content (75.90%) due to mild Brønsted-rich acidity sites, lower reduction temperature, higher active metallic Ni species content, suitable oxygen vacancy content and favorable texture properties via the decarbonylation reaction pathway. Furthermore, lower Ni loading was beneficial to gasoline and bioaviation fuel generation due to higher Brønsted-rich acidity sites and total acid amount, which boosted C-C scission by cracking reaction, and higher Ni content facilitated biodiesel formation. Additionally, Ni (10%)/MgO-Al 2 O 3 catalysts showed excellent reusability and regeneration due to Ni active species, but these advantages were slightly decreased (HCs: from 95.12% to 61.63%; biodiesel: from 75.90% to 57.52%) due to coke deposition and metal active species leaching and oxidation .

Catalytic deoxyribozyme has great potential for gene regulation, but the poor efficiency of the cleavage of mRNA and the lack of versatile DNAzyme vehicles remain big challenges for potent gene therapy. By the rational designing of a diverse vehicle of polydopamine-Mn2+ nanoparticles (MnPDA), we demonstrate that MnPDA has integrated functions as an effective DNAzyme delivery vector, a self-generation source of DNAzyme cofactor for catalytic mRNA cleavage, and an inherent therapeutic photothermal agent as well as contrast agent for photoacoustic and magnetic resonance imaging. Specifically, the DNAzyme-MnPDA nanosystem protects catalytic deoxyribozyme from degradation and enhances cellular uptake efficiency. In the presence of intracellular glutathione, the nanoparticles are able to in situ generate free Mn2+ as a cofactor of DNAzyme to effectively trigger the catalytic cleavage of mRNA for gene silencing. In addition, the nanosystem shows high photothermal conversion efficiency and excellent stability against photothermal processing and degradation in complex environments. Unlike previous DNAzyme delivery vehicles, this vehicle exhibits diverse functionalities for potent gene regulation, allowing multimodal imaging-guided synergetic gene regulation and photothermal therapy both in vitro and in vivo.

To efficiently convert the microalgae to valuable and renewable fuels, the microalgae oil was first extracted and then transformed into the second-generation biodiesel. Among all solvents that were used for the microalgae oil extraction, the polar single solvent system methanol achieved the optimal value (47.8% extraction yield) because the polar cell membrane was easily dissolved by the polar solvent. Hexadecanoic acid (38.54%) and docosanoic acid (54.39%) dominated in fatty acid of microalgae oil. In the catalytic deoxygenation of microalgae oil, the Co-Al nanosheet displayed a higher performance than Co/Al 2 O 3 because of its high Co content and lamellar structure, exposing massive Co sites with high dispersion and small particle size. Moreover, when the reaction temperature was raised to 240 °C, the 100% conversion and 100% alkane yield were obtained, and the further temperature rise in temperature led to the cracking reaction.

Synthesis of zeolites in more efficient and greener methods is of great significance in both industrial and academic fields. However, the relative long time for zeolite crystallization and much consumption of water solvent make the target challengeable. Herein, a route for ultrafast synthesis of nano Silicalite-1 zeolites in 10 min with much less water consumption has been developed. Comprehensive characterizations, i.e., X-ray powder diffraction, N2 sorption, scanning electron microscope, and NMR, confirm the high quality of such obtained Silicalite-1 zeolites. In the catalytic deoxygenation of O2-containing ethylene (mixture of O2 and ethylene), these reported Silicalite-1 zeolite samples show the comparable performance with the conventional Silicalite-1 zeolites synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. This research therefore provides a new trial toward the ultrafast synthesis of zeolite materials in an environment-friendly route.

In this work, methods employing ethanol for dispersion as well as precursor combination by rotary evaporation were combined to produce Ni-based ZSM-22 catalysts. The catalytic activity in palmitic acid deoxygenation over Ni/Z22@E was enhanced compared with that of the wet-impregnated method. The conversion of palmitic acid reached 98.9 %, in which C16/C15 alkane was as high as 4.07. The Ni species on the surface of catalysts showed strong stability so that not susceptible to inactivation by coking or leaching. In addition, the mechanism and kinetics of the palmitic acid deoxygenation reaction were analyzed. The results showed that the ethanol dehydration reaction was the most difficult to occur, and the high C 16 alkanes selectivity can be attributed to the low activation energy of the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) pathway. Both experimental and kinetics calculation results suggested that there may be a mechanistic change in the fatty acid deoxygenation reaction at around 240 °C that resulted in a large increase in the hydrodecarboxylation (HDX) pathway. Based on this, selected adjustments of the products were proposed for fatty alcohols below 220 °C, C 16 alkanes between 260 and 280 °C, and C 15 alkanes above 280 °C.

Catalytic hydrotreating of renewable oils is a promising way to get diesel alkanes, with the use of microbial lipids further facilitating scalable production of green diesel. The core issue of triglyceride hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) research is still to develop efficient catalysts under mild reaction conditions. Herein, we demonstrate that the heteropolyacid (HPA)-modified SiO2 supported Pd catalysts showed high activity for the HDO reaction of methyl stearate and soybean oil to diesel alkanes (C15∼C18, >90 wt % at 200 °C). Characterizations show that the Brønsted acid sites introduced by grafting heteropolyacid on SiO2 and metal sites of small Pd particles contribute to the high HDO activity of this bifunctional catalyst. Additionally, lipids produced by Rhodosporidium toruloides Y4 from glucose or corn stover were also transformed to about 75 wt % of diesel-range alkane products. This integration of microbial lipid production with chemical catalysis should facilitate the engineering of green diesel production from lignocellulosic biomass.
