In this paper, guaiacol was used as a model compound of bio-oil and its catalytic conversion was carried out in ethanol. The effect of supports (SBA-15, ZrO 2 /SBA-15 and SO 4 2 − /ZrO 2 /SBA-15) was studied on Pt–Ni based catalysts whereas the effect of active metals was investigated over C-supported Ru, Pt and Pd catalysts. Among the tested catalysts, Ru/C showed the best performance of total guaiacol conversion with high selectivity towards the desired products, cyclohexanol and 2-methoxycyclohexanol (MCH). The reaction pathways of guaiacol in ethanol were clarified based on the product analysis. With the catalysis of Ru/C, the effects of reaction temperature, initial hydrogen pressure, and other typical compounds from bio-oil were investigated. Temperatures had negligible effect on both the conversion of guaiacol and the yields of desired products in the range of 140–260 °C. Guaiacol conversion decreased significantly at initial hydrogen pressures lower than 4.0 MPa. The presence of furfural , acetone , and acetic acid decreased the conversion of guaiacol dramatically while the addition of water had a smaller impact. Further work revealed that the mass and energy efficiency of converting guaiacol into MCH are 100% and 97%, respectively.

Cyclohexanol is a crucial intermediate in the synthesis of nylon and other chemical industry materials. However, directly hydrogenating phenol to cyclohexanol presents challenges, including harsh reaction conditions and low selectivity for the desired product. To address these issues, a two-step method was proposed, involving the mild catalytic decoupling and hydrogenation of lignin, which enables the efficient production of cyclohexanol. Lignin was initially depolymerized into 18.08 % phenol and 60.63 % guaiacol in a dilute alkaline aqueous solution at 200°C under atmospheric nitrogen. Subsequently, the effects of catalytic hydrogenation of phenol in different solvents were examined. When water was used as the solvent, phenol conversion reached 100 % within 2 hours at 30°C, with a selectivity of 94.69 % to cyclohexanol. The hydrogenation process, catalyzed by 5 wt% Pd/AC, was studied under these conditions. It was found that phenol was first partially hydrogenated to cyclohexenol, which quickly isomerized to cyclohexanone and was further hydrogenated to cyclohexanol. The two steps create a low-temperature and low-pressure pathway for efficiently converting lignin to cyclohexanol, thereby enhancing lignin's potential value.

The solubilities of succinic acid in binary cyclohexanone + cyclohexanol solvent mixtures at 304.25–354.65 K, in binary cyclohexane + cyclohexanol solvent mixtures at 300.15–346.15 K, in binary cyclohexane + cyclohexanone solvent mixtures at 297.65–351.25 K, and in ternary cyclohexanol + cyclohexanone + cyclohexane solvent mixtures at 306.95–343.15 K were determined by the synthetic method at atmospheric pressure. The experimental solubility data in binary solvent mixtures were correlated by the Apelblat equation and nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) activity coefficient model, and the calculated solubility data by the models have a good agreement with the experimental data. Then, the solubilities of succinic acid in ternary cyclohexanol + cyclohexanone + cyclohexane solvent mixtures were predicted by the NRTL model and compared with the experimental solubility data. Finally, the solubilities of succinic acid in the three studied binary solvent mixtures were compared with the solubilities of glutaric acid and adipic acid in the same solvent systems at 303.15–343.15 K. The result shows that in the three studied solvent mixtures, glutaric acid with an odd number of carbon atoms is much more soluble than succinic acid and adipic acid with an even number of carbon atoms. The reasons for this “odd–even effect” phenomenon are the interlayer packing of molecule chains and the twist of the carbon chains.

The solubilities of adipic acid in cyclohexanone + cyclohexanol mixtures at (303.15–349.45) K, in cyclohexane + cyclohexanol mixtures at (304.15–339.45) K, and in cyclohexane + cyclohexanone mixtures at (304.85–342.45) K were determined at atmospheric pressure by the dynamic method. Experimental results show that when solvent composition remains constant, solubilities of adipic acid in the studied binary mixed solvents increase monotonically with temperature increasing, and when temperature remains constant, solubilities of adipic acid decrease monotonically with the increasing mass fraction of cyclohexane in cyclohexane + cyclohexanol and cyclohexane + cyclohexanone mixture. However, the measured solubility firstly increases monotonically with the increasing mass fraction of cyclohexanone in cyclohexanone + cyclohexanol mixtures and then reaches the maximum solubility at the mass fraction of cyclohexanone at 0.4. When the mass fraction of cyclohexanone was bigger than 0.40, the solubility of adipic acid decreased with the increasing mass fraction of cyclohexanone. There exists a maximum-solubility effect. Further, both the NRTL equation and the Apelblat equation were used to correlate the experimentally determined solubilities. A fairly good agreement was obtained between the correlated solubilities with the experimental observations. Thermodynamic quantities of dissolution were calculated by the Clark and Glew equation, including dissolution enthalpy, entropy, Gibbs energy and isobaric heat capacity for adicip acid in cyclohexane + cyclohexanol, cyclohexane + cyclohexanone, and cyclohexanone + cyclohexanol solvent mixtures .

Liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE) data for ternary systems water + cyclohexane + cyclohexanol and water + cyclohexane + cyclohexanone were measured at (303.2–333.2) K and under atmospheric pressure. The reliability of the experimental tie-line data was checked by the empirical Othmer–Tobias correlation. The distribution coefficient and separation factor were used to investigate the distribution of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone between water and cyclohexane. The results show that the distribution coefficient of cyclohexanol or cyclohexanone between organic and aqueous phases increases with the increasing content of cyclohexanol or cyclohexanone in water, and so does it with the increasing of temperature. By using the NRTL and UNIQUAC activity coefficient models, the experimentally determined LLE data, along with the LLE data for another ternary system water + cyclohexanol + cyclohexanone [G. Xing, W. Qinbo, L. Fuqiong, S. Binwei, J. Chem. Eng. Data 59 (2013) 1651–1655], were correlated simultaneously. Good agreements were obtained between the correlated and experimentally determined tie-line data. The binary NRTL and UNIQUAC interaction parameters were obtained. Furthermore, four sets of quaternary LLE data for water + cyclohexane + cyclohexanol + cyclohexanone were experimentally determined at 318.2 K. The experimentally determined quaternary LLE data were compared with the NRTL model predicted LLE data, and generally agreements were obtained. It further verifies the reliability of the obtained binary model parameters, and indicates the obtained parameters could be used for prediction, as well as design and optimization of the related separation process.

Selective hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of phenolic compounds derived from the pyrolysis lignin-oil to desired products is a promising route in the high-value utilization of biomass-derived products. Cyclohexanol, as one of the important chemical materials, is an intermediate of catalytic HDO of guaiacol. Controllable selective HDO is conducted to improve the cyclohexanol selectivity over RuFe bimetallic catalyst prepared by ethylene glycol reduction method in this work. 99.99% guaiacol conversion and 81.35% cyclohexanol selectivity are obtained over optimized 2Ru2.5Fe/Al 2 O 3 -EG catalyst, which is better than those over 2Ru/Al 2 O 3 -EG catalyst. The mild catalyst preparation method gives it a high dispersion and uniform distribution of Ru and Fe species on the support. Various characterizations have proved that the intimate contact between Ru and Fe 2 O 3 species contributes to the improvement of cyclohexanol selectivity. Partial blockage of Ru sites by Fe 2 O 3 species slightly reduces the hydrogen adsorption capacity while the addition of Fe helps enhancing the hydrogenolysis of C-OMe bond. The reciprocal effect facilitates the removal of methoxyl groups and hinders the dehydroxylation of cyclohexanol to cyclohexane. Besides, other phenolic compounds and pyrolysis lignin-oil as substrates also show good selective HDO reactivity to corresponding alkyl cyclohexanols, implying potential application in the transformation from lignin-oil to high-value products.

Lignin, an abundant aromatic polymer in nature, has received significant attention for its potential in the production of bio-oils and chemicals owing to increased resource availability and environmental issues. The hydrodeoxygenation of guaiacol, a lignin-derived monomer, can produce cyclohexanol, a nylon precursor, in a carbon-negative and environmentally friendly manner. This study explored the porous properties and the effects of activation methods on the Ru-based catalyst supported by environmentally friendly and cost-effective hydrochar. Highly selective cleavage of C aryl -O bonds was achieved under mild conditions (160 °C, 0.2 MPa H 2 , and 4 h), and alkali activation further improved the catalytic activity. Various characterization methods revealed that hydrothermal treatment and alkali activation relatively contributed to the excellent performance of the catalysts and influenced their porous structure and Ru dispersion. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results revealed an increased formation of metallic ruthenium, indicating the effective regulation of interaction between active sites and supports. This synergistic approach used in this study, involving the valorization of cellulose-derived hydrochar and the selective production of nylon precursors from lignin-derived guaiacol, indicated the comprehensive and sustainable utilization of biomass resources.

2-Ethyl-1-hexanol has extensive industrial applications in solvent extraction, however, in view of its potential pollution to environment, the removal and recovery of 2-ethyl-1-hexanol is considered an essential step toward its sustainable use in the future. In this work, we report the removal of 2-ethyl-1-hexanol from aqueous solutions containing salts in high concentrations by adsorption on a coal-based activated carbon. Adsorption thermodynamics showed that the experimental isotherms were conformed well to the Langmuir equation. Also it was found that inorganic salts, i.e. MgCl 2 and CaCl 2 in high concentration significantly enhanced the adsorption capacity from 223 mg/g in the deionized water to 277 mg/g in a saline water. This phenomenon of adsorption enhancement could be ascribed to the salt-out effect. Kinetic analysis indicated that adsorption kinetics follows the pseudo-second-order equation and the adsorption rate constants increase with the salt concentration. The dynamic breakthrough volume and adsorbed amount of 2-ethyl-1-hexanol were significantly elevated when the salt is present in the water. The dynamic saturated adsorption amount increased from 218.3 mg/g in the deionized water to 309.5 mg/g in a salt lake brine. The Tomas model was well applied to predict the breakthrough curves and determine the characteristics parameters of the adsorption column.

The solubilities of glutaric acid in binary cyclohexane + cyclohexanol solvent mixtures at 298.05–343.65 K, in binary cyclohexane + cyclohexanone solvent mixtures at 299.10–340.65 K, in binary cyclohexanone + cyclohexanol solvent mixtures at 299.75–343.65 K, and in ternary cyclohexanol + cyclohexanone + cyclohexane solvent mixtures at 298.15–330.95 K were studied by the dynamic method. The results show that the solubility of glutaric acid increases as temperature increases at constant solvent composition in three determined binary solvent systems. For binary cyclohexane + cyclohexanol and cyclohexane + cyclohexanone solvent mixtures, solubilities of glutaric acid decrease monotonically with the increasing mass fraction of cyclohexane in solvent mixtures at constant temperature. However, for binary cyclohexanone + cyclohexanol solvent mixtures, cyclohexanone with a mass fraction at 0.6 in solvent mixtures has the best dissolving capacity for glutaric acid at constant temperature. The experimental solubility data of three determined binary solvent systems were correlated by the Apelblat equation and nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) activity coefficient model, and the correlated solubilities data were in good accord with the experimental data. The obtained binary interaction parameters for the NRTL model were used to calculate the solubilities of glutaric acid in the ternary cyclohexanol + cyclohexanone + cyclohexane solvent mixtures, which were compared with the experimental solubilities data.

Hydrodeoxygenation is one of the key steps to upgrade of biomass derived bio-oil into valuable biofuels and chemicals. Developing of highly reactive and cost-effective catalysts for bio-oil hydrodeoxygenation is highly desired. Layered Ni x Co y Al z catalyst was prepared using layered double hydroxide (LDH) as the precursors. The optimized Ni 1 Co 3 Al 2 -600 catalyst exhibits excellent catalytic performance for guaiacol hydrodeoxygenation. Guaiacol could completely converted with 90.0% of cyclohexanol selectivity under relatively mild reaction conditions. The XRD and HRTEM characterizations of the as prepared catalysts confirmed the formation of Ni-Co alloy and the XPS analysis revealed the strong interaction between Al species with both Ni and Co in catalyst Ni 1 Co 3 Al 2 -600, which should contribute to its high catalytic activity for guaiacol hydrodeoxygenation. Catalyst Ni 1 Co 3 Al 2 -600 also demonstrated excellent versatility for the hydrodeoxygenation reactions of guaiacyl and syringyl compounds as well as high stability. The results from this work could provide a new approach for the constructing of effective catalysts from non-noble metal LDHs.

Aqueous catalytic phenol has been explored using Pd 7 P 3 /SiC catalysts in the presence of H 2 . Palladium phosphide was prepared by oleoamine reduction and supported on silicon carbide. The physicochemical properties of the catalyst were characterized by inductively Coupled Plasma Emission Spectrometer (ICP-MS), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results show that palladium phosphide is successfully supported on silicon carbide, and the dispersion is relatively uniform with the particle size is about 6–9 nm. Under the same catalytic conditions, a catalyst with a loading of 2.4 wt% exhibits the best activity. When the temperature is 40 °C, the initial pressure is 5 bar, the conversion of phenol can reach more than 99%, and the selectivity of cyclohexanol reaches 94% after 2 h reaction.

Lignin accounted for the second largest amount in biomass, and was regarded as an important carbon source and important renewable source for value-added chemicals. Herein, a series of lignin-derived carbon-based heterogeneous catalyst was synthesized through a simple hydrothermal method , using Co-MOFs as template. Lignin was introduced as a carbon material into MOF catalysts. Through some characterizations, it has been proven that lignin has been successfully introduced into MOF materials and significantly improved the catalyst performance. Then, lignin-MOF derived catalysts (Co/C-EL-X) were successfully introduced into the catalytic hydrodeoxygenation of lignin-derived phenols . The addition of enzymatic hydrolysis lignin (EL) in catalysts, calcination temperature and some other factors were investigated in detail, considering the catalytic performance during the HDO of vanillin and other typical lignin-derived phenols. Co/C-EL-0.5(500) exhibited the best catalytic performance for the conversion of different kinds of lignin-derived phenols to either 2-methoxy-4-methylphenol (MMP) or cyclohexanol . Under the optimal conditions of 240 °C, 0 MPa N 2 , and 2 h, the conversion rate of vanillin reached 100 %, and the yield of 4-methyl-2-methoxyphenol (MMP) was up to 92 %. Furthermore, vanillin could also be converted into 4-methylcyclohexanol (MCYL) by changing the initial nitrogen pressure. Also, Co/C-EL-0.5 (500) exhibited high activity for the conversion of other lignin-derived phenols into cyclohexanol (COL). This work provided a novel strategy for the catalytic valorization of lignin sources.
