V2O5/TiO2 Catalyst for Catalytic Glucose Oxidation to Formic Acid in Batch Reactor: Vanadium Species Nature and Reaction Conditions Optimization. Topics in catalysis, 68 (1-2), 49-58. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11244-024-01982-0.1572-90281022-5528https://hdl.handle.net/11441/174039This study focused on the development of vanadium-based catalysts for formic acid production from glucose. The influence of different vanadium precursors on the catalytic activity of titania supported catalysts was contemplated and compared to the performance of commercial and synthesized unsupported V2O5. The obtained results reveal a successful deposition of multiple vanadium species on TiO2 as confirmed by XRD, Raman, and UV-Vis measurements. Catalyst screening identifies V5+ species as main player indicating its important oxidizing potential. Afterwards, the key reaction conditions, as temperature, time, pressure and catalyst loading, were optimized as well as the state of the catalyst after the reaction characterized.application/pdf10 p.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Formic acidVanadium catalystBiomass conversiónGlucose oxidationinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess10.1007/s11244-024-01982-0
