RESEARCH LIQUID-PHASE CATALYTIC FURFURAL REDUCTION
This paper presents an overview of existing furfural hydrogenation catalysts and the results of the practical screening of Pd-containing catalysts on various carbon supports. The study showed the maximum conversion was obtained by using 5% Pd catalyst based on activated carbon at a temperature of 453 K and a pressure of 6.1 MPa, and was 15.72% with 87% selectivity.
