AC3B Technology for Direct Liquefaction of Lignocellulosic Biomass: New Concepts of Coupling and Decoupling of Catalytic/Chemical Reactions for Obtaining a Very High Overall Performance
The acid-catalyzed conversion of lignocellulosic biomass (AC3B) process has been developed for the direct liquefaction of lignocellulosic biomass. In the original version, the main products, ethyl esters, are ...

Catalytic Compatibility of Methanol with Petroleum Naphtha in Mixed Feeds Used in the Thermal-Catalytic/Steam-Cracking (TCSC) Process for the Production of Propylene and Ethylene
In the thermal-catalytic steam-cracking (TCSC) of “naphtha–methanol” mixtures, the increasing presence of methanol in the feed significantly modified the kinetics of the catalytic cracking. The gradual and sig...

Silica nanoboxes from alumina rich zeolites: thermal and chemical stability of the monomodal and bimodal materials
Silica nanoboxes synthesized from alumina-rich zeolites, showed two distinct categories of nano-structured materials. Entirely mesoporous nanoboxes (monomodal Al-nanoboxes) were highly thermally and chemically...
