Synthesis of ethyl levulinate over sulfonated lignin-based carbon catalyst as a fuel additive to biodiesel-diesel blends towards engine emissions
Biodiesel-diesel blend is a promising approach for petroleum diesel substitution but concurrently requires modifications to improve its properties. In this study, ethyl levulinate (EL) was synthesized via levulinic acid (LA) esterification over a sulfonated lignin-based carbon catalyst and employed...
