On the reduction of CO2 footprint via selective hydrodeoxygenation by ZnO–Ti3C2Tx catalyst under solvent-free conditions

A series of ZnO–Ti 3 C 2 T x catalysts was studied first time for the catalytic hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) reaction. The catalyst exhibited complete conversion and >90% selectivity for octadecane (C-18) with 5-cycle recyclability.
