MOF-based functional catalytic materials for biodiesel production
Recently, PhD student Miss Wen-jie Cong supervised by Prof. Zhen Fang, collaborated with Profs. Hu Li at Guizhou Univ, JA Kozinski at Lakehead Univ and AK Dalai at U of Saskatchewan in Canada, published a review article in Green Chemistry about metal-organic framework-based functional catalytic materials for biodiesel production.
At present, the key point of the biodiesel industry is to find cheap and widely sourced feedstock to reduce production costs. High-efficiency heterogeneous catalyst can enhance biodiesel yield from low-quality feedstocks. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted extensive attention in the field of clean energy and chemicals due to their porous, controllable structure and good compatibility. However, the application of MOF materials on biodiesel production is still in its infancy but their usage is on the rise year by year. There is no relevant review article to summarize and point out the work and defects in this field. This review focuses on MOF-based functional catalytic materials for biodiesel production. Catalytic performance of MOF-based catalysts, synthesis method and catalytic loading strategy are described in detail. This review also analyzes the mechanism of functionalized MOFs classified via enzyme, base, acid, and bifunctional catalysts and summarizes technologies employing MOF-based catalysts for biodiesel production. Additionally, technical perspectives on the feasible reaction mechanisms are discussed, and the realistic necessity of MOF-based nanocatalysts is provided. The MOF-based functional catalytic materials show great potential in biodiesel production and other relevant biorefineries.

金属有机骨架基功能催化材料制备生物柴油
最近，博士生丛文杰（女）在方老师的指导下，与贵州大学李虎教授、加拿大湖首大学JA Kozinski院士和萨斯卡彻温大学AK Dalai院士合作，在国际学术期刊Green Chemistry（IF9.707，Q1）发表功能化金属有机框架材料用于制备生物柴油的综述论文。
目前，生物柴油工业的发展重点是寻找价格低廉、来源广泛的原料以降低生产成本。高效多相催化剂可以提高低质原料制备生物柴油的收率。金属有机框架（MOFs）具有多孔、结构可控、相容性好等优点，在清洁能源和化工领域受到广泛关注。然而，MOF材料在生物柴油生产中的应用还处于起步阶段，但其使用量逐年上升。目前还没有相关的综述文章来总结和指出这方面的工作和不足。本文综述了MOF基功能催化材料在生物柴油生产中的应用，详细介绍了MOF基催化剂的催化性能、合成方法和负载策略。本文将功能化MOF分为酶、碱、酸和双功能催化剂四大类，分析了它们的作用机理，总结了MOF基催化剂在生物柴油生产中的辅助技术。此外，还对可行的反应机理进行了技术展望，并提出了MOF基纳米催化剂的现实必要性。详情可见：
