Summary
The present proposal is aimed at utilizing the large expertise of our research group in heterogeneous catalysis in order to develop new valorization routes for two byproducts from oil mill (olive leaves and stones). In the former case, leaves will be used as biotemplates to incorporate titania thus obtaining artificial leaves to be used to generate hydrogen through photo-catalytic reforming of alcohols. In the latter case, a new procedure to obtain carbons (carbon sponges) through softer reaction conditions than usual (hydrothermal treatment) and using surfactants is proposed. Those carbons will be used as catalysts or supports of some active phases (Zr, Cu, Pt) and used to obtain glycerin ethers used as additives to (bio) fuels or furfuryl alcohol, utilized in the production of fibers, resins or as a solvent, just to cite some examples.
This will definitely contribute to one of the current challenges of olive oil sector: incorporation of new products/activities.

The present proposal utilized the large expertise of our research group in heterogeneous catalysis to develop new valorization routes for two byproducts from oil mill (olive leaves and stones).
In the former case, leaves were used as biotemplates to incorporate titania (as anatase) thus obtaining artificial olive leaves (AOL) which exhibited an enhanced catalytic activity (as compared to benchmark P25 TiO2) in hydrogen photoproduction through glycerol photoreforming. Moreover, activity was subsequently improved by incorporating noble (Au, Pt) and more interestingly non-noble (especially Cu) metals.
In the latter case, olive stones were used to obtain carbon with the appropriate textural characteristics as to disperse several active phases (TiO2, ZrO2 or sulfonic acid groups) and result in active catalysts for hydrogen photoproduction, furfural to furfuryl alcohol selective reduction or etherification of glycerol with tert-butyl alcohol, respectively.
Results closely related to the proposal led to 7 publications (plus 3 additional ones in progress) in high-impact JCR journals, contributed to 2 PhDs and 13 communication to congresses (7 international, 6 national). More interestingly, the project contributed to one of the current challenges of olive oil sector: incorporation of new products/activities.
