Single phase CuCoMgAl-layered hydroxides were obtained by making fine adjustment to their composition through changing the (Co + Cu)/Mg = 0.5; 1; 2; 3 and Co/Cu 2 ratios. The rise of in systems contributed increase thermal stability. CuCoMgAl-catalysts showed high selectivity carbonyl group hydrogenation furfural 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. In hydrogenation, furfuryl alcohol was more than 99%, 5-h...

Objective: The present study aimed to investigate the phytochemical and heavy metals components of A. leiocarpus considering its applications in ethnomedicine.
 Material Method: were determined qualitatively quantitatively gravimetrically, while component identification was done using (Gas spectrometer-mass spectrometer (GC-MS) technique. Heavy quantified by atomic absorption spectrophotom...

The Front Cover sketches the generation of platform molecules furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural from agricultural waste, their subsequent valorization by transformation into value-added chemicals, as imagined artist Monica Rizzi. More information can be found in Review G. Poli, J. Oble et al.

sour cherry and orange juice were successfully cryoconcentrated. novel clarification (electro-flotation and ultra-filtration) improved cryconcentration efficiency. ef-uf clarified sour cherry and orange juices were cryoconcentrated in three stages up to 34.52±0.14, 44.42±0.19, 52.44±0.13 and 28.43±0.16, 40.51±0.15, and 45.42±0.19° brix at -10˚c respectively. duncan's multiple range test was use...

Furan derivatives obtained from renewable biomass resources have the potential to serve as substitutes for the petroleum-based building blocks that are currently used in the production of plastics and fine chemicals. We developed a process for the selective dehydration of fructose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) that operates at high fructose concentrations (10 to 50 weight %), achieves high y...
