Lactic acid dehydration using a non-stoichiometric calcium pyrophosphate catalyst (Ca/P ratio 0.78) has resulted in 78% acrylic acid yield due to formation of calcium lactate as an intermediate on the catalyst surface.

An acrylic acid yield of 74.3% and a formation rate of 12.0 mmol gcat−1 h−1 have been achieved at 340 °C by lactic acid dehydration over Na2HPO4-modified NaY nanocrystallites (NaY-n) due to appropriate surface acidity together with the unique structural features of NaY-n.

Vanadium oxide catalysts doped or mixed with 1-50 mole % Fe3+ ions were prepared. The structure of the original samples and those calcined from 200 up to 500 °C were characterized by TG, DTA, IR and X-ray diffraction. The SBET values and texture of the solid catalysts were investigated. The catalytic dehydration-dehydrogenation of isopropanol was carried out at 200 °C using a flow system. The results obtained showed an observable decrease in the activity of V2O5 on the addition of Fe3+ ions. Moreover, Fe2V4O13 is the more active and selective catalyst than FeVO4 spinels. The results were correlated with the active sites created on the catalyst surface.

Biotechnological production of lactic acid has experienced a boom that is hindered only by the lack of low-cost, abundant material that might be used as a substrate for lactic acid bacteria. Such material should contain not only carbon but also complex nitrogen sources, amino acids and vitamins necessary for the balanced growth of the bacteria. Here, for the first time, a combination of hydrolysates of wheat straw and chicken feathers was used as a complete waste cultivation medium for lactic acid production. It was shown to be a promising substrate for lactic acid production, reducing the medium price by 73% compared with MRS broth, providing more than 98% lactic acid yield and high productivity (2.28 ± 0.68 g/l/h) in a fed-batch process using Lactobacillus reuterii LHR14.

1.25 – 5wt%Pt/Al2O3, 1.25 – 5wt%Pd/Al2O3, 1wt%Pd/TiO2, 1 – 5wt%Pd/TiO2-NF, 1.25wt%Pt+1.25wt%Pd/Al2O3, 5wt%Pt/SiO2, 5wt%Pt/C catalysts were synthesised and tested in the selective oxidation of 1,2-propanediol by molecular oxygen. It was found that all catalysts were active in alkaline water solutions; lactic acid was obtained as the main product of the reaction. The conversion of 1,2-propandiol and the yield of lactic acid depended on the content of active metal in the catalysts. The most active for the oxidation of 1,2-propandiol were palladium-containing catalysts supported on TiO2 nanofibers (Pd/TiO2-NF). The highest 1,2-propanediol conversion (100 %) and lactic acid yield (96 %) were obtained using the 5wt%Pd/TiO2-NF catalyst at the following oxidation parameters: c0(1,2-propanediol) = 0.3 mol/L, P(O2) = 1 atm, n (1,2-propanediol)/n (Pd) = 500 mol/mol, t = 60 °C, c0(NaOH) = 1.5 mol/L.
