Lactic Acid Production from Glucose Over a Novel Nb2O5 Nanorod Catalyst

  • Published:
Catalysis Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

A novel Nb2O5 catalyst with the highly single crystallinity and well aligned nanorods was successively synthesized by hydrothermal method and presented promising catalytic behavior for lactic acid synthesis from glucose. Notably, the sample was easily separated and reused without the obvious deactivation. It might shed light on an alternative process for lactic acid production instead of conventional fermentation.
