Abstract
Sustainable energy production is a worldwide concern due to the adverse effects and limited availability of fossil fuels, requiring the development of suitable environmentally friendly alternatives. Hydrogen is considered a sustainable future energy source owing to its unique properties as a clean and nontoxic fuel with high energy yield and abundance. Hydrogen can be produced through renewable and nonrenewable sources where the production method and feedstock used are indicators of whether they are carbon-neutral or not. Biomass is one of the renewable hydrogen sources that is also available in large quantities and can be used in different conversion methods to produce fuel, heat, chemicals, etc. Biomass gasification is a promising technology to generate carbon-neutral hydrogen. However, tar production during this process is the biggest obstacle limiting hydrogen production and commercialization of biomass gasification technology. This review focuses on hydrogen production through catalytic biomass gasification. The effect of different catalysts to enhance hydrogen production is reviewed, and social, technological, economic, environmental, and political (STEEP) analysis of catalysts is carried out to demonstrate challenges in the field and the development of catalysts.

Abstract
The constant increase in greenhouse gases in the environment is forcing people to look for different ways to reduce such pollution. One of these ways is the use of biodiesel for road transport. Conventional biodiesel production involves the catalytic triglyceride transesterification process. When using homogeneous two-stage catalysis, it is difficult to purify the resulting product from the by-products formed, and the catalysts cannot be reused. In the case of heterogeneous catalysis, the process costs are increased due to separation and regeneration of the catalysts. To solve these problems of catalytic synthesis, a noncatalytic process has been recently studied that which takes place under supercritical conditions for an alcohol or other acyl receptor. In such biodiesel production, fatty feedstocks and alcohols are used as raw materials, with the synthesis taking place at supercritical conditions for alcohol, i.e., high temperature and pressure, thus making the process quite simple. This paper reviews the results obtained from biodiesel synthesis using a noncatalytic supercritical process for transesterification using both alcohols and carboxylate esters of low molecular weight, evaluating the optimal conditions for these processes and biofuel stability at high temperatures.

Abstract
Recently, the incorporation of hydrophobicity on the surface of UiO-66(Zr) has received much attention due to the deactivation of hydrophilic active sites of UiO-66(Zr) upon water adsorption. In this work, we report UiO-66(Zr) catalysts with an assortment of surface hydrophobicities fabricated by the solvent-free method to elucidate the impact of the environment framing Lewis acid sites on their catalytic activity in the production of fatty acid methyl ester (biodiesel) via the esterification of fatty acids at room temperature with high selectivity (100%) and good recyclability. A detailed structural analysis of the materials by N2 sorption, FT-IR, SEM, XRD, water contact angle measurement, dynamic liquid scattering (DLS), NMR and TGA revealed the fabrication of stearic acid-grafted UiO-66(Zr) catalysts (10SA/UiO-66) with fine particle size and a highly hydrophobic network. 10SA/UiO-66(Zr) with enhanced hydrophobicity exhibited superior catalytic performance in the esterification of a fatty acid with a long alkyl chain compared with conventional solid acid catalysts and even liquid acid catalysts. Detailed kinetic studies corroborated that the adsorption of lipophilic acids at the Lewis acid sites besides the enhancement of wettability between the reactants was facilitated by the hydrophobic environment, thus significantly motivating the esterification reaction at room temperature. Furthermore, 10SA/UiO-66(Zr) showed good catalytic activity in the esterification of oleic acid in the presence of water (∼10% in the light of acid weight). Recently, the incorporation of hydrophobicity on the surface of UiO-66(Zr) has received much attention due to the deactivation of hydrophilic active sites of UiO-66(Zr) upon water adsorption.![]()

Abstract
Biodiesel obtained from palm oil over an environmentally friendly catalyst is highlydesirable. For that matter, dolomite, a natural material was used as a catalyst in this work, and this included potassium oxide (K2O)-doped dolomite, 5 wt% K/D, 10 wt% K/D, 15 wt% K/D, and 20 wt% K/D. X-ray diffraction analysis of dolomite revealed the CaO and MgO phases with high crystallinity, in which intensity reduced after doped with varying concentrations of K2O. When the catalysts were evaluated, the K2O-doped dolomite exhibited a better catalytic activity for palm oil transesterification. In the presence of K2O, the methyl ester reached 98.7%, with the highest being displayed by 15 wt% K/D as compared to 87% over dolomite at reaction temperature of 60 °C, 12:1 methanol to palm oil ratio, 1 wt% catalyst amount and 1 h reaction time. SEM revealed that as more K2O was doped on dolomite, the particles became more agglomerated, with a reduced BET surface area of 1.3 m2/g in 20 wt% K/D as opposed to homogeneously small-sized MgO and CaO particles in dolomite with a high BET surface area of 19.0 m2/g. However, the high activity of the doped catalyst was dictated by the high amount of basic site, as evidenced in TPD-CO2 which showed an increase in the capacity of the basic site with an increased amount of K2O. The catalyst was also reusable up to six times with a negligible decrease in activity due to K+ leaching.
