RT Conference Proceedings T1 Role of Mo in catalysts based on noble metals in hydrodeoxygenation reactions A1 Ballesteros-Plata, Daniel A1 Infantes-Molina, Antonia A1 Rodríguez-Aguado, Elena A1 Braos-García, María del Pilar A1 Rodríguez-Castellón, Enrique K1 Recursos energéticos renovables K1 Energía de biomasa AB The use of bio-energy as a renewable alternative to fossil fuels is nowadays attracting more and moreattention. The bio-fuel from biomass seems to be a potential energy substitute for fossil fuels since it is a renewable resource that could contribute to sustainable development and global environmental preservation and it appears to have significant economic potential1. The problem is its high oxygen content, which gives undesirable properties for combustion. To remove oxygen, catalytic hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) reactions are carried out. Monometallic Mo/Si, Pt/Si as well as bimetallic PtMo/Si catalysts were preparedand evaluated in the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO)reaction of dibenzofurane (DBF) as a model molecule in biomass derived bio-oil.
