High-performance of fluorine-doped tin oxide immobilized on polyurethane foam composite for crude glycerol to ethyl acetate photoconversion

Photocatalytic conversion of crude glycerol into high-value products offers economic and environmental benefits. However, impurities such as organic and inorganic salts, heavy metals, soap, and matter organic non-glycerol (MONG) can hinder direct conversion. This study investigates the transformatio...
