Tailored hierarchical zeolites via greener synthesis for the pyrolytic conversion of peanut shell waste

Peanut shell is a high volume globally produced waste. Catalytic pyrolysis is proposed for its valorization. Hierarchical ZSM-5 zeolites were evaluated as solid catalysts to improve bio oil composition. Starch, cheap, renewable and safe polymeric carbohydrate was employed as a bi...
