Made-to-measure reactors for bio-based hybrid catalysis

In the 21st century, the challenge of the ecological transition is requiring the chemicals industry to develop innovative processes in line with environmental, energy and societal constraints. There is a dual challenge here: - new conversions need to be developed using renewable resources, the reactivity of which has yet to be fully mastered on a large scale; - researchers need to design and propose innovations to make these conversions more efficient and less energy intensive. The second aspect concerns processes and requires researchers to consider various avenues for progress: new reactors, reduction in the number of steps, combination of catalysts, etc.
