Abstract

Strong synergy between proximate Bro̷nsted acid and metal sites over a Pt/amorphous silica-alumina (ASA) catalyst confers striking activity and selectivity enhancements for m-cresol hydrodeoxygenation to methylcyclohexane, a fuel additive and potential liquid organic hydrogen carrier for storing renewable energy.
