Cu and Zn Bimetallic Co-Modified H-MOR Catalyst for Direct Oxidation of Low-Concentration Methane to Methanol.

The direct oxidation of low-concentration methane to value-added chemicals can not only reduce carbon emission but also provide an alternative production route for fossil fuels. Herein, we proposed a novel catalyst for the direct oxidation of low-concentration methane to methanol via the impregnation method, which selected copper and zinc as co-modifiers to modify the MOR catalyst. The highest methanol yield of 71.

Ethylene glycol based acid pretreatment of corn stover for cellulose enzymatic hydrolysis.

A highly efficient pretreatment strategy using ethylene glycol with dilute sulfuric acid was developed for the fractionation of lignocellulose. The pretreatment behaviors were related to the composition analysis and structure of the samples analyzed by SEM, XRD, FTIR and 2D HSQC NMR, resulting in 80.3% delignification and 84.
