The Mixture of Fatty Acids Conversion into Hydrocarbons Over Original Pt-Sn/Al 2 O 3 Catalyst

Development of alternative approaches to fuel components and basic organic synthesis precursors producing based on biomass treatment products is important objective for ecology and chemistry. In this work, a number of original Pt–Sn containing catalysts were used for the mixture of fatty acids conversion. The peculiarities of used catalysts are usage of heterometallic precursors that possesses metal–metal bonds. Such kind of catalysts precursors allow obtaining more active and selective catalysts then ones based on a mixture of monometallic Pt and Sn precursors. Structural peculiarities of catalysts were characterized with TEM&EDS and XAS technique. Relations between Pt clusters structure and its catalytic properties were determined.
