The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of Cu addition to carbon supported Ru catalysts on the hydrogenation of macroalgae-derived alginic acid into sugar alcohols, mainly sorbitol and mannitol. Both geometric and electronic effects were determined based on results of H2-TPR, H2- or CO-chemisorption, and XPS analyses after Cu was added to Ru. The addition of Cu to Ru caused blocking of active Ru surface and electron transfer between Ru and Cu. The intimate interaction between Ru and Cu formed RuCu bimetallic clusters which expedited hydrogen spillover from Ru to Cu. The highest yield of target sugar alcohols of 47.4% was obtained when 5 wt% of Ru and 1 wt% of Cu supported on nitric acid-treated activated carbon reacted at 180 °C for 2 h. The RuCu bimetallic catalyst exhibited deactivation upon repeated reactions due to the carbon deposition on the catalyst.

Paragraph 0036; 0037, (2017/12/09)
The invention discloses a preparation method of gamma-acetyl n-propanol. The method includes the steps of (1) adding the hydrolysate of plant fiber or xylose and other raw materials into a reaction still, adding a two-phase reactive solvent and a catalyst, inletting hydrogen, and heating the reaction still to react for several hours; (2) carrying out standing, liquid separation and then solid-liquid separation on reaction materials in the reaction still, obtaining water phase, oil phase and the catalyst, and recycling the catalyst for reutilization; (3) concentrating water phase products, extracting 1, 4-pentanediol in the oil phase, mixing with the concentrated solution, and carrying out further separation to obtain a crude product of 1, 4-pentanediol; (4) pumping the crude product of 1, 4-pentanediol obtained from the water phase and the oil phase in step (3) to a fixed bed reactor, carrying out dehydrogenation to produce gamma-acetyl n-propanol under the action of a catalytic dehydrogenation catalyst or an oxydehydrogenation catalyst. According to the preparation method, raw materials have extensive sources, the production cost is low, no inorganic acid system is used, and the reaction process is environment-friendly.
