Abstract

Highlights: [•] Ni2P/SiO2 catalyzed the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MTHF). [•] Ni2P/SiO2 had higher selectivity to n-pentane than Pd/Al2O3 and Ru/C. [•] Contact time analysis was applied for the reaction network of HDO of 2-MTHF. [•] Ring-opening of the furanic ring by cleavage of a C O bond was rate-determining. [•] Kinetics indicates that 2-MTHF and H2 are competitively adsorbed on surface. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
