Popis: A high-throughput composite catalyst is prepared from porous carbon with an unconventional nanocube morphology decorated by nickel nanoparticles. Due to the advantageous properties of the designed carbon support, the composite combines a high surface area and a hierarchical pore structure with high functionality. Furthermore, the regularly shaped nanocubes allow for a good packing of a fixed-bed flow reactor, while the internal transport pores cannot be blocked and stay open for efficient column performance. The composite is employed as catalyst in the hydrogenation of 5 hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5-dimethylfuran showing good catalytic performance and overcoming the conventional problem of column blocking.
