Development of copper-iron based catalyst for mixed alcohol synthesis from syngas

Yongwu Lu, Qiangu Yan, Jin Hu, Jason Street, James Wooten, Eugene Columbus, and Fei Yu wrote a paper on the use of a copper-iron based catalyst for mixed alcohol synthesis from syngas. The team is based at the Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering at Mississippi State University. Selection of a catalyst is a critical decision in producing biofuels from a synthesis gas?, or syngas in thermochemical production platforms.
