    Catalytic conversion of ethanol to n-butanol using ruthenium P–N ligand complexes

    Get PDF
    We report several ruthenium catalysts incorporating mixed donor phosphine-amine ligands for the upgrade of ethanol to the advanced biofuel n-butanol, which show high selectivity (≥90%) at good (up to 31%) conversion. In situ formation of catalysts from mixtures of [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene)]2 and 2-(diphenylphosphino)ethylamine (1) shows enhanced activity at initial water concentrations higher than those of our previously reported diphosphine systems. Preliminary mechanistic studies (electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy) suggest the possibility of ligand-assisted proton transfer in some derivatives

    Malaysian Agriculture and Plantation Greenhouse Gas Equilibrium Model (MAPGEM) - 2018 Update

    No full text
    The Malaysian Agriculture and Plantation Greenhouse Gas Equilibrium Model (MAPGEM) predicts the economic impact of renewable energy on the Malaysian agriculture and plantation sectors. MAPGEM forecasts land use, resources, prices, production, domestic consumption, imports, exports, and greenhouse gases between 2018 and 2065. It includes banana, cocoa, coconut, durian, forest, kenaf, mango, oil palm, papaya, pepper, pineapple, rambutan, rice, rubber, and agricultural wastes. MAPGEM allows the study of biodiesel, bioelectricity, butanol, and ethanol and their penetration into the fossil-fuel markets. A user can also study government policies such as a carbon tax, subsidies, and minimum biofuel mandates

    Malaysian Agriculture and Plantation Greenhouse Gas Equilibrium Model

    No full text
    The code for the Malaysian Agriculture and Plantation Greenhouse Gas Equilibrium Model. The code is written in GAMS while the model represents the agricultural sector of Malaysia. The model predicts the potential of the agricultural industry to produce renewable energy. The model allows biodiesel made from palm oil, yellow grease, and palm fatty acid distillates. The model also allows bioelectricity, biobutanol, and bioethanol from waste biomass

    The Malaysian Agriculture and Plantation Greenhouse Gas Equilibrium Model (MAPGEM) predicts the economic impact of renewable energy on the Malaysianagriculture and plantation sectors. MAPGEM forecasts land use, resources, prices, production, domestic consumption, imports, exports, and greenhousegases between 2019 and 2064. It includes banana, cocoa, coconut, durian, forest, kenaf, mango, oil palm, papaya, pepper, pineapple, rambutan, rice,rubber, and agricultural wastes. MAPGEM allows the study of biodiesel, bioelectricity, butanol, and ethanol and their penetration into the fossil-fuelmarkets. A user can also study government policies such as a carbon tax, subsidies, and minimum biofuel mandates.This MAPGEM version contains biodiesel and ethanol production from algae and biodiesel from hemp, jatropha, and kenaf along with their co-products.THIS DATASET IS ARCHIVED AT DANS/EASY, BUT NOT ACCESSIBLE HERE.

    Users can use the code that comprises MAPGEM for free for educational purposes. If you plan to use the code for commercial or for-profit purposes, please contact the author for licensing information. The Malaysian Agriculture and Plantation Greenhouse Gas Equilibrium Model (MAPGEM) predicts the economic impact of rice blast disease infecting the Malaysian paddy fields. MAPGEM forecasts land use, resources, prices, production, domestic consumption, imports, exports, and greenhouse gases between 2023 and 2068. It includes banana, cocoa, coconut, durian, forest, kenaf, mango, oil palm, papaya, pepper, pineapple, rambutan, rice, rubber, and waste biomass. MAPGEM allows the study of rice blast disease spreading across Malaysia. MAPGEM will enable farmers to transfer the infected land to oil palm plantations. The farmers can pay annual treatment costs to recover the infected paddy fields.THIS DATASET IS ARCHIVED AT DANS/EASY, BUT NOT ACCESSIBLE HERE.
