ZnO-Enhanced Cu/ZrO2 for Photothermal Catalytic CO2 Hydrogenation to Methanol

Abstract The photothermal conversion of CO2 to methanol represents a sustainable pathway for energy storage and carbon neutrality. However, most highly active photothermal catalysts have been evaluated under Xenon-lamp irradiation, in which the photothermal effect arises predomin...

Sn/Zr Mixed-Metal Clusters in MOFs as Lewis Acid Catalysts for Biomass-Derived HMF Synthesis

Abstract The depletion of fossil fuels has spurred the search for sustainable routes to platform chemicals, yet the efficient conversion of biomass-derived fructose to 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF) remains challenging. While Sn-based Lewis acids are promising catalysts for this...
