Electrochemical production of methyltetrahydrofuran, a biofuel for diesel engines† Mia D. Stankovic, a Jessica F. Sperryn, a Roxanna S. Delima, bc Connor C. Rupnow,b Michael B. Rooney, a Monika Stolar a and Curtis P. Berlinguette *abcd Abstract Methyltetrahydrofuran (MTHF) can be derived from non-edible biomass and used to replace diesel fuel. MTHF can be produced through the hydrogenation of furfural using hydrogen sourced from methane.

Selective hydrogenation of furfural using a membrane reactor† Roxanna S. Delima, ab Mia D. Stankovic, c Benjamin P. MacLeod, bc Arthur G. Fink, c Michael B. Rooney, c Aoxue Huang, c Ryan P. Jansonius, c David J. Dvorak b and Curtis P.

Selective hydrogenation of furfural using a membrane reactor Electrocatalytic palladium membrane reactors (ePMRs) use electricity and water to drive hydrogenation reactions without ever forming H2 gas. In these reactors, a palladium membrane physically separates electrochemical hydrogen formation in aqueous media from chemical hydrogenation in organic media.
