Abstract

The immobilized metallic nano-base catalysts were tested for hydrogenation of glycerol and cellobiose by using of commercial Pt, Pd, Ru and Rh catalysts. The reactions were carried out at the similar conditions to comparison with conventional heterogeneous catalysts. The influence of alkali promoter is also tested for the reaction. Obtained results show that the anchored Ru as nano-catalysts give very good activity and selectivity to 1,2-propane diol in hydrogenation of glycerol.
