From: Platinum–copper single atom alloy catalysts with high performance towards glycerol hydrogenolysis

Catalytic evaluation of PtCu-SAA and monometallic catalysts (Pt/MMO and Cu/MMO) toward glycerol hydrogenolysis to 1,2-PDO: a conversion versus reaction time, b ln (CA0/CA) versus reaction time, c the product selectivity, and d the TOF value determined as moles of initial glycerol converted per mole of exposed active sites per hour in the catalytic dynamic range. Reaction conditions: 10 mL of glycerol alcoholic solution (10 wt. %), 0.14 g of catalyst, 200 °C, and 2.0 MPa of H2 pressure. Error bars were defined as standard deviation, n = 3.
