Lactic acid is a high-value-added chemical with large production, which is used in many industries including the production of pyruvic and acrylic acids. Lactic acid is largely obtained from the oxidation of glycerol, which is a prevalent by-product of biodiesel production. However, the oxidation of glycerol to lactic acid requires harsh reaction conditions such as high temperature and pressure as well as the use of a hefty strong base. In the presence of suitable catalysts, the production of lactic acid from glycerol can be achieved under mild conditions with 1 equivalent base per mole of glycerol. Herein, we review the reports of the catalytic conversion of glycerol to lactic acid in an aqueous alkaline medium considering the reaction conditions, catalytic activity for glycerol conversion and selectivity for lactic acid. We start first with the reports on the use of homogeneous catalysts that have high catalytic activity but miserable recovery. Next, we discuss the employment of colloidal metal(0) nanoparticles as catalysts in glycerol oxidation. The papers on the use of supported metal(0) nanoparticles are reviewed according to the type of support. We then review the polymetallic and metal/metal oxide nanocatalysts used for the conversion of glycerol to lactic acid in an alkaline medium. The catalysts tested for glycerol conversion to lactic acid without any additional bases are also discussed to emphasize the importance of a strong base for catalytic performance. The proposed mechanisms of glycerol oxidation to lactic acid in the presence or absence of catalysts as well as for the formation of side products are discussed. The available experimental kinetics data are shown to fit the mechanism with the formation of glyceraldehyde from glycerol alkoxide as the rate-determining step.

A density functional theory study of propylene epoxidation mechanism on Ag2O(001) surface
Tezsevin, I.; van Santen, R. A.; Önal, Işık (2018-11-07)
Propylene oxide (PO) is one of the 50 most produced chemicals according to the production volume. Environmental and economic drawbacks of conventional PO production processes necessitate new production methods. Among the new production alternatives, direct epoxidation of propylene to propylene oxide by molecular oxygen is a highly desired method and seen as the holy grail of propylene epoxidation studies. In this study, the propylene epoxidation mechanism on an Ag2O(001) surface is investigated computationa...
A review of the biogeochemical controls on the occurrence and distribution of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) in coals
Wang, Ruwei; Sun, Ruoyu; Liu, Guijian; Yousaf, Balal; Wu, Dun; Chen, Jian; Zhang, Hong (2017-08-01)
The organic matter in coal contains polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) of varying quantities in diverse soluble and insoluble forms. PACs in coal are of special interest for organic geochemical studies because they have been successfully used as biological marker compounds (biomarkers) and indicators of thermal maturity. In addition, they could provide critical information to understand the structural and compositional evolution of the coal organic matters during coalification, and to predict PAC releasin...
A comparative study on the effects of glucose monohydrate, hot water, and sodium pyrophosphate on quality parameters and microbial flora of deboned and matured brisket
Göğüş, Uğur; BOZOGLU, F.; Alpas, Hami (Wiley, 2007-09-01)
Organic acids, hot water (HW), and chlorine have been commonly used incarcass decontamination for years. However, it has been observed that organic acids have adverse effects on color and are corrosive, while HW is discoloring. On the other hand, glucose fermentation by lactic acid bacteria in meat during the rigor period might be effective in microbial inhibition, without producing an adverse effect on the organoleptic quality of meat. Therefore study, briskets were treated with 6 different applications: D...
A case study for control structure selection: Chlorination stage in the bleaching process of a pulp and paper plant
Qushsho'o, MH; Ozgen, C; Yetiş, Ülkü (2004-01-01)
The minimization of chlorinated organic compounds in the effluents of the chlorination unit of a pulp mill is proposed by the use of a control structure for the chlorination unit. Bleached pulp properties are related to the unbleached pulp properties: lignin content, brightness, and viscosity, as well as the amount of chlorinated organics in the bleachery effluent. The best feasible control pairings are studied by RGA and SVD methods. Kappa number of the bleached pulp (a measure of lignin content) and perce...
A Molecular Dynamics Study on the Local Structure of Al90Sm10 Marginal Metallic Glass and Liquid
Sarıtürk, Doğuhan; Kalay, Yunus Eren (2023-01-01)
The liquid and the amorphous Al90Sm10 marginal metallic glassy alloy are investigated using Molecular Dynamics. The Al90Sm10 system consisting of 32,000 atoms is simulated under the constant number of atoms, pressure, and temperature (NPT) ensemble where the temperature and pressure are controlled via Nose–Hoover thermostat and barostat, respectively. The corresponding liquid model is initially held at 2300 K; then, the liquid is continuously cooled down to 300 K with a constant cooling rate of 1010 Ks−1, d...
