Bioethanol Guerbet condensation reaction: Construction of a highly active and stable catalytic system

Key Points

• The aim is to develop a stable and active catalytic system for producing n-butanol from bioethanol through Guerbet condensation.
• Analyzed catalytic performance under various conditions
• Assessed stability and leaching of metal components
• Compared new catalytic system with traditional methods
• The new catalytic system showed significantly reduced metal leaching
• Enhanced activity and stability compared to previous catalysts
• n-Butanol was produced in higher yields than traditional processes
