What is Glycerol to Bio-Propanol: Ni Catalyst Study about?

The research investigates the hydrogenolysis of glycerol to produce 1-propanol using a Ni catalyst modified with Al(H2PO4)3, achieving total glycerol conversion and 74% selectivity towards 1-propanol under specific conditions. A power-law kinetic model was developed, showing good predictive capability with an average error of less than 7%. The study highlights the potential of using carbon-based composites and nickel catalysts for efficient bio-propanol production from glycerol.
