Catalytic conversion of glycerol or acetol to alcohols |
摘要 |
The catalytic conversion of glycerol or acetol to alcohols, such as polyhydric alcohols like propylene glycol and simple alcohols like methanol and ethanol, without the addition of external hydrogen, is improved by the use of a transition metal alloy catalyst which, in the case of glycerol, is a nickel alloy catalyst. |

1. A method for catalytically converting glycerol to one or more alcohols, including propylene glycol, comprising combining in a suitable reactor, glycerol, a source of hydrogen other than a hydrocarbon or molecular hydrogen, and a nickel alloy catalyst, and allowing the glycerol to be converted to one or more alcohols, wherein the pressure of hydrogen gas within the reactor during the conversion is less than 10 atm, and wherein hydrogen required for the conversion is produced from water or from water and a non-hydrocarbon source other than water. |
