In the presence of hydrogen, the Ce 4+ and Cu 1+ are reduced to Ce 3+ and Cu 0 with a change in the structure of the catalyst surface. The activation of CO 2 and its hydrogenation to alcohols or other hydrocarbon compounds is an important approach to recycle the released CO 2. CH 3 OH conversion not seen over a Cu-Zn alloy.

Researchers in Sweden and Spain have devised a three-step process for the conversion of precipitated kraft lignin from black liquor into green diesel. First, a mild Ni-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation/hydrogenolysis using 2-propanol generates a lignin residue in which the ethers, carbonyls, and olefins are reduced.

In 2017, the team started scaling up the design and built a solar fuel-production plant at IMDEA Energy Institute in Spain. The ceria—which is not consumed but can be used repeatedly—converts water and CO 2 injected into the reactor into syngas, a tailored mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. Zoller et al.

The process will include the drying and crushing of the biomass, torrefaction, gasification, purification of the synthesis gas and its ultimate conversion to second generation biofuels using Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. Carbon conversion is greater than 99%, and typical composition of the raw syngas is more than 85 vol.%
