Furfural is a high-value chemical, being the precursor of even more valuable compounds such as furfuryl alcohol and tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol. Pt is known as active for furfural hydrogenation, but the high price limits its exploitation and imposes the search for alternatives [1,2]. Many papers reported that the introduction of transition metal into noble-metals based catalysts can have a significant influence on the catalytic activity and selectivity [3,4]. Here, we investigated the behavior of Mo and Pt/Mo supported on activated carbon (AC) derived from birch wood in furfural hydrogenation.

Abstract
Furfural is a high-value chemical, being the precursor of even more valuable compounds such as furfuryl alcohol and tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol. Pt is known as active for furfural hydrogenation, but the high price limits its exploitation and imposes the search for alternatives [1,2]. Many papers reported that the introduction of transition metal into noble-metals based catalysts can have a significant influence on the catalytic activity and selectivity [3,4]. Here, we investigated the behavior of Mo and Pt/Mo supported on activated carbon (AC) derived from birch wood in furfural hydrogenation.
