Efficient hydro-deoxygenation of lignin derived phenolic compounds over bifunctional catalysts with optimized acid/metal interactions

A stable bifunctional catalyst for hydro-deoxygenation of lignin derived phenolic compounds was obtained through simple selective deposition of Pt on alumina in a commonly used Al₂O₃-ZSM-5 nanocomposite, and the catalyst retained its complete deoxygenation capacity for more than 500 h.
