| Title | A novel heterogenous iridium catalyst for the preparation of formic acid / formate |
| Knowhow is available for | An integrated process for the synthesis of iridium supported on sulfonated carbon, which can then catalyze the synthesis of formic acid / formate from carbon dioxide and hydrogen |
| Summary | |
| Advantages | (1) The prepared heterogenous iridium catalyst was very efficient in catalyzing the hydrogenation reaction at significant scale and good selectivity of formate.
(2) Use of heterogeneous catalyst that can be recycled up to 10 times without loss in catalytic activity
(3) the use of the catalyst makes the hydrogenation process free of any ligands, alkali bases, and organic solvents
(4) Easy scalability to large-scale production
(5) Is a more sustainable alternative for the synthesis of formic acid / formate
(6) Avoids generation of intermediates and tedious purification steps |
