The application adopts a co-
precipitation method to prepare a NiZr / CoOx catalyst prepared by
topological transformation of a layered double
hydroxide (LDHs) precursor and a method for
catalytic hydrogenation of
biomass-derived compounds. The catalyst used is a NiZrCo catalyst prepared by a co-
precipitation method. The method used is: adding unsaturated
biomass-derived compounds into a reaction container containing a
solvent, using
isopropyl alcohol as a
solvent and a
hydrogen source, and realizing the
hydrogenation reaction of
aldehyde ketone compounds under the action of the NiZr / CoOx catalyst. In order to improve the catalytic activity of Co species in the
hydrogenation reaction, Ni and Zr are doped in the
cobalt salt to obtain the catalyst. The addition of Zr not only helps the dispersion of Ni and Co, but also provides acid sites for the catalytic
system, the strong electronic interaction between
metal species improves the catalytic activity, and the existence of
oxygen vacancies provides adsorption sites for C=O in
furfural, greatly improving the catalytic performance. The method for preparing the NiZr / CoOx catalyst doped with Ni, Zr and Co is simple, the process is easy to operate, the obtained catalyst has
high activity, and exhibits good catalytic performance in the
catalytic hydrogenation reaction of
biomass-derived compounds. The catalyst has
magnetism, and is convenient for recycling. In addition, the method uses an in-situ hydrogenation method to replace the traditional external
hydrogen to provide a
hydrogen source, and has high safety.
