Promising Electrocatalytic Systems 2,5-di-Me-Pyrazine-di-N-Oxide - Cyclohexanol - Single-Walled and Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes for the Simultaneous Metal-Free Oxidation of Cyclohexanol at Anode and Release of Hydrogen Evolution at Cathode

Received: 07 August 2025;  Published: 26 January 2026;  doi: 10.21926/cr.2601003

Abstract

Electrocatalytic oxidation of organic compound in the absence of noble metals or their oxides as catalysts and using metal-free electrodes is a "green" electrochemical, inexpensive and attractive process for practical use in electrocatalysis, power sources and sensors. The process accompanied by the elimination of protons, is of interest both for obtaining valuable organic compounds at the anode and for the release of hydrogen evolution at the cathode. In this work, the catalytic oxidation of cyclohexanol in the pr [...]

Valorization of Agro-Industrial Residues into Furfural via Catalytic Pyrolysis

Received: 15 October 2025;  Published: 12 January 2026;  doi: 10.21926/cr.2601002

Abstract

Pyrolysis is a promising technology for converting biomass waste into bio-oil, a liquid product that can serve as feedstock for fuels and high-value chemicals. In this study, bio-oil was produced via catalytic pyrolysis of pear pulp waste, a byproduct from juice and jam manufacturing, using a fixed-bed reactor. Initial non-catalytic experiments were conducted under nitrogen and vacuum atmospheres at temperatures ranging from 300 to 450°C for 15 minutes to evaluate the effect of temperature on bio-oil yield. The res [...]

Paranitrophenol and Organic Azo Dye Degradation: Catalytic Power of Terminalia Leaf Silver Nanoparticles

Received: 19 September 2025;  Published: 01 December 2025;  doi: 10.21926/cr.2504010

Abstract

Terminalia species is a widely available plant that can be used to synthesise silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and harness their catalytic capacity. This experimental design will explore the potential of Terminalia AgNPs in contributing to the degradation process of toxic chemicals generated by industries such as textiles, food, and pharmaceuticals. This research uses four leaf varieties of Terminalia species—T. arjuna, T. bellirica, T. chebula, and T. catappa—to synthesize AgNPs, evaluate their optimal synthesis condi [...]

Fabrication of CuO-Decorated Fe2O3 Nanoparticles as Efficient and Durable Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Received: 09 August 2025;  Published: 07 November 2025;  doi: 10.21926/cr.2504009

Abstract

The electrochemical water oxidation application of CuO@Fe2O3 materials as potential catalysts is being reported for the first time. A series of CuO@Fe2O3 with different molar ratios of CuO (5, 7, 10, 12, and 15%) was fabricated through precipitation followed by the impregnation method. Structural and electrochemical studies were carried out by using different analytical platforms, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy dispersive [...]

Lignocellulosic Biomass and Enzymes: Fundamentals, Emerging Technologies, and Applications

Received: 25 January 2025;  Published: 19 June 2025;  doi: 10.21926/cr.2502004

Abstract

Lignocelluloses are complex plant polysaccharides made of lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose, and products made from these components find immense market potential. They can be effectively valorized to products related to bioenergy, bioplastics, food and nutrition, medication delivery systems, and other elements. Significant sources of lignocellulosic biomass include sugarcane bagasse, corn cob, rice straw, potato haulms, cocoa pods, etc. Enzyme-based valorization processes find immense potential, as they are eco [...]
