Electrocatalytic Hydrogenation of Biorenewable Cyclic Terpenes to Sustainable Aviation Fuels
Abstract
A critical challenge for the USA military is to develop sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) that can be produced in remote locations.Coupling biosynthetic production of cyclic monoterpenes with hydrogenation could allow for SAF synthesis at forward operating bases. Our research will advance knowledge of electrocatalytic hydrogenation of terpene compounds and increase the ability to generate SAFs in remote locations.
