Fluorine-doped tin oxide catalyst for glycerol conversion to methanol in sub-critical water

In this study, a method for the catalytic conversion of glycerol to methanol in sub-critical water (subCW) is proposed. Glycerol conversion to methanol using the subCW method is a new attempt to the best of the authors's knowledge and this process was compared with the conventional hydrogenolys...
