Abstract

The uncontrolled increase in population and human activities has led to a significant rise in the demand for energy resources. The excessive use of limited fuel sources, unplanned deforestation, and greenhouse gas emissions have necessitated the search for and development of alternative, sustainable energy resources that cause minimal or no harm to the environment. The introduction of green and eco-friendly technologies offers a potential solution to address the growing demand in fields such as petroleum and hydrogen production, with the ultimate goal of promoting environmental sustainability. This review article highlights recent innovations in the field of heterogeneous catalysis, focusing on the development of various catalytic materials and processes, as well as their future prospects for both industrial and academic advancements. A brief discussion is presented on the efficient performance of solid acid and base catalysts, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), electrocatalysts, and photocatalysts. The discussed catalytic systems have been explored for their potential applications, including biodiesel and hydrogen production as alternative energy sources, as well as CO2 reduction and the degradation of toxic dyes and organic pollutants for environmental remediation. Overall, the significance of heterogeneous catalysts has been explored, emphasizing their critical role in driving industrial progress and economic growth.

1 Introduction

Catalysis is a fundamental element of many chemical processes and hence it is a main strength of all chemical industries. 1 It is proven and now a day there is a growing concern about the catalysts that are environmentally friendly and safer technologies for the better industrial productions. Not less than 15 Nobel prizes have been awarded for studies on catalysis and many chemists around the world are repeatedly advancing the catalysts they have, and are motivated to discover new ones.

All the catalytic process can be applied either homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysis. Heterogeneous catalysis is a process in which catalyst being used is in a different phase than the reactants, i.e. the catalysis is usually in a solid phase and the reactant is in a liquid or in gaseous phase. As a part of catalysis, heterogeneous catalysis has prior importance in many areas of the chemical research for energy and environmental applications. 2 , 3 Although, there are many advantages of homogeneous catalysis which is pH dependent and can function with wide pH range. 3 Further, overall, most of (>80 %) chemical and bio-catalytic processes well established with heterogeneous catalysis and thus it is much successive catalytic process of vibrant branch of chemistry as well as pharmaceutical world. Figures 13 emphasizing the importance of the catalytic process and among all the process, how heterogeneous catalysis being a large part of chemistry itself can be found here. 4 , 5

The beginning era of heterogeneous catalysis, academic research and industrial processes were focusing on production of bulk chemicals and refining the oil as fuel on large scale requirement and it has been expanded rapidly in the recent decades. 6 , 7 Heterogeneous Catalysis is now become a key factor for many industries for the conversion of petroleum and natural gas into cleaner and efficient fuels, but now there is a demand for the production of alternative fuels such as hydrogen and biofuels. 6 , 7 , 8 Heterogeneous catalysis is still in use for the selective synthesis of special intermediates or products and fine chemicals in bulk production. Now a day it is possible to find the alternative route for the energy and environmental issues due to major advances in the design and development of catalyst at the molecular level.

In continuation, there are many efforts in progress to unlock energy sources that are much more difficult to use than fossil fuels, but are “greener”, where heterogeneous photocatalysis could make it economically feasible to produce hydrogen fuel from water splitting and leads to find novel methods to produce efficient energy sources from the raw resources such as CO2, 8 biomass 9 etc. Green technologies have included heterogeneous catalysis as being advantageous for regeneration and reusability, production of no waste or very less amount of waste, easy set up process with lower cost, high thermal and chemical stabilities and good selectivity of final product. Indeed, heterogeneous catalysis is being used for the environmental remediation for water, air and soil by applying an environmentally benign approach.

The conceptual platform for the practicable uses of catalytic systems can be defined by energy and mass dimensions. It consists of processes and materials being used with mass inputs in terms of raw materials to be converted into added-value ones directly or indirectly equal to the energy resources with or without emissions to be treated. 10 , 11 In this context, the consumed energy can be considered an input for endothermic reactions, while the energy generated serves as an output for exothermic reactions. Light, heat and electrons are often considered specific resources that promote catalytic systems by adding energy, leading to processes such as photocatalysis or photoelectrocatalysis. 10 , 12 , 13

The types of catalytic systems can be identified based on the structure and nature of the catalytic materials, which impart their catalytic functionality. Table 1, 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 and Figure 4 illustrate the most commonly used catalytic processes and materials.

There are also some drawbacks of heterogeneous catalysis such as it requires higher temperature and pressure for the reaction to occur, thus it requires higher energy consumption and therefore utility and energy related costs are very high. 2 To develop and design a highly efficient and environmentally-friendly catalytic materials and systems are very effective approaches to generate novel energy sources and remediation of contaminated soil, air and wastewater. 6 , 7b Thus, the bridging connection between a material structure and chemistry with efficient performance of heterogeneous catalyst would provide rational informations for catalyst design and addressing the challenges in promising use in the research area of energy resources.

The current review article shows recent development and progress in heterogeneous catalysis for energy and environmental applications. Heterogeneous catalysis consists of many subclasses depending on nature and structure of the catalyst used in solid phase such as solid acid catalyst, solid base catalyst and nano catalyst.

2 Energy applications

2.1 Biodiesel production

Currently, the use and storage of fuel energy for economic development and finding of an alternative fuel sources are in prior demand due to the ever-increasing world population. It is now an urgent worldwide issue to implement the possible all the efforts for the sustainable automotive fuels. 7 Since, last few decades, the biodiesel production has been promoted on the large scale as a safe and novel technology. Biodiesel belongs to the class of renewable and sustainable fuel source receiving more attention as rapidly growing field with high potential rather than other energy sources and evidently beneficial for a long-term investment. 32 , 33 , 34

Processes for biodiesel production can be classified as catalytically, chemically (base or acid catalysis), biologically (enzyme catalysis) and non-catalytic processes. Chemically, biodiesel (alkyl-ester derivatives) is usually produced by chemical catalytic transesterification of refined vegetable oils/waste cooking oils (long chain fatty acids) or animal fats. The chemical catalysts used earlier are strong acidic (HCl, H2SO4, HF, p-toluenesulfonic acid) or basic solutions (NaOH, CH3ONa and KOH).7b

Now days, a “green” approach for biodiesel production has been adopted the use of sustainable solid acid catalysts as replacements for such liquid acid catalysts so that the use of harmful/corrosive substances and unwanted formation of toxic wastes could be avoided. With remarkable developments and fruitful researches reported in the past few years for the industrial production, heterogeneous catalysis is growing up in the market for the biodiesel production.7b , 33a Heterogeneous catalytic transesterification is a process where the catalysts remain in different phase to that of the reactants and provides easier separation of biodiesel from glycerol. 35 , 36 , 37 The catalytic conversion of oil into biodiesel is slowly but the resulting biodiesel could be possible in an economical way. 38 , 39 Firstly, surface morphology characteristics, having large pore size to minimize diffusion problems is an ideal characteristic of a solid catalyst as being a part of heterogeneous catalysis. Another one, is deactivation, mainly achieved because of availability more active catalytic sites, high catalytic stability versus leaching and the probability to tune the hydrophobicity of the surface with the repulsion of highly polar compounds. 40 From the literature, solid base catalysts such as base zeolites, alkali earth metal oxides, hydrotalcites (or layered double hydroxides), alumina loaded with various compounds and mixed oxide have been quite successful with high conversion and yield of biodiesel obtained.33b

2.1.1 Solid acid catalyst (SAC)

SAC can be defined on the basis of nature and number of present active acid sites (Brønsted or Lewis acidity), arability of the acid sites and morphology of the support. Therefore, the acid catalysts could be used directly for biodiesel formation from low-grade, highly-acidic and water-containing oils. Thus, solid acid catalysis is now well established as benign alternatives to the unrecyclable-homogeneous acid catalysts and succeeds in the petrochemical industries. Many more benefits avail to this class of catalysts such as, (i) the catalysts could be modified and tunable, selective and easy regenerate and reuse, (ii) minimize product contamination through easy separation from target product, (iii) elimination of washing step particular for biodiesel production, (iv) replaced use of corrosive liquid acids and thus corrosion issue could be minimized, (v) could be employed in continuous flow process, (vi) minimum catalyst deactivation, (vii) catalyst could be rapidly prepared through economically and environmentally affordable process. 3 The surface morphology of the solid catalyst plays a key role for better catalytic performance through selective adsorption of reactant molecules and converts into the desired product. However, many more finding has to search out to connect and fill the knowledge gap between the fundamental concept of reaction pathway and the mechanisms of reactants on the solid catalysts.

They are mainly used for important acid catalyzed organic transformations such as Friedel-Craft alkylation/acylation, esterification/transesterification, acetal/ketal formation etc.7b Literature report highlighting the extensive use of solid acid catalysts for biodiesel production through esterification or transesterification processes. For example, the mechanism of the acid catalyzed transesterification reaction of triglycerides is well understood. 6 , 41 , 42 Still there are some challenges facing for biodiesel production such as to increase rate of reaction and to reduce unwanted side reaction. Thus, these challenges lead to develop a novel, efficient and stable catalytic system and more efforts for reduction in cost of preparation the catalyst and sequentially reduced biodiesel production costs. There is lots of research work in progress to overcome the said challenges through potential application of various solid acid catalysts for biodiesel production.

The ideal characteristics of a solid acid catalyst are strong Brønsted and/or Lewis acid properties, unique porosity or textural properties and a hydrophobic surface. Till date, the catalytic potential of solid acids have been reported for the biodiesel production such as acidic inorganic ion exchangers, acidic clays, metal oxides, mixed metal oxides, H-form zeolites, heteropolyacids (HPAs), modified silica, acidic ionic liquids, hybrid organo-inorganic materials and carbon based materials.

The Brønsted acid sites are highly polarized hydroxyl groups at the surface of the catalyst that serve as the H+-donor, while the Lewis acid sites are coordinatively unsaturated cationic sites, which leave the exposed M+ ion to interact with guest molecules and act as the acceptor of the electron-pair. With respect to base catalysts, biodiesel production processes based on the use of solid acid catalysts are effective alternatives to the conventional processes because of their easy workup and the simultaneous promotion of esterification and transesterification reactions without soap formation.

Zeolites and zeolite type materials : Zeolites are naturally abundant three dimensional frameworks with crystalline structures of aluminosilicates interlinked by oxygen atoms. They contain Al, Si and O in their framework, and cations, water and/or other molecules within their pores. 34 They are well established and robust materials because of having molecular porous structure with channel of uniform sizes gives materials to be ion exchange characteristic. The catalytic activity depends on replacement of Si4+ by Al3+ with crystalline SiO2 framework which generates negative charges in the catalyst framework and thus improves catalytic activity. Interestingly, the adsorption ability could be modified through synthesis methods as expected due to the strong electric field created by the loosely held cations within the catalyst framework. Thus, desired catalytic performance in term of good activity and selectivity could be obtained as it has ability to introduce active sites within the pores and channels. 3

Zeolite can accommodate number of cations such as Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ and many more from which it has its basic nature. H-ZSM-5, H-MOR, H-BETA and H-USY are H+ ion exchanged acid form zeolites found to be not much catalytic active for esterification or transesterification reactions of biodiesel production due to internal diffusion limitations of the bulky reactant molecules into the micro-pores of zeolites. 3 Zeolites Y are weak solid acid catalyst while Zeolites β are three-dimensional structure of 12-membered ring channels with high silica content having both Lewis and Brønsted-acid sites. Lewis-acid sites are mainly present in the micro-porous walls. Zeolite β does not exhibit high activity in transesterification, but it could be used for selective removal of FFAs in waste oil. Silicoalumino-phosphates, the recently developed Zeolite types materials foe examples, SAPO4, ALPO4, MeAPSO4 and MeAPO4 could be synthesized with coordinated Al, Si, P, transition metals and other elements. 3

The catalytic activity of the protonated form of H–Y zeolite (Faujasite with high Si/Al ratio) has been investigated as solid acid catalyst for esterification of oleic acid with methanol. 43 At optimized conditions, methyl esters production yield reaches up to ∼95 % and the used catalyst could be regenerated easily and reused for the same. Septiani et al. 44 have prepared Zeolite ZSM-5 and studied its catalytic activity for the transesterification of vegetable oil for biodiesel production. The results of the catalytic reaction show a maximum biodiesel yield of ∼92 % at the optimized reaction time and temperature. Zeolite and zeolite-based heterogeneous catalysts 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 for biodiesel production have been summarized in Table 2.

Metal oxides: Metal oxides are materials of typical characteristics such as thermal and mechanical stability, high specific surface area, and large pore size and pore volume. Thus, they are extensively being used as catalyst supports for catalytic purpose.

The typical superacids such as SO4 2−/ZrO2, SO4 2−/TiO2, SO4 2−/Ta2O5, SO4 2−/Nb2O5 etc.7b They possess potential economic and green benefits for a number of hydrocarbon reactions under mild reaction condition and thus, interest has been generated to use of such materials for transesterification and esterification reactions to produce biodiesel. 70 Herein, an interesting factor about the metal oxides (ZrO2, TiO2, Ta2O5, Nb2O5), they possess the both Brønsted and Lewis acidity that can be improved by modifying its surface by sulfate groups which makes materials to be promising catalyst to promote protonation in the esterification process. 71 Castro et al. 72 have studied heterogeneous solid acid catalysis for esterification and transesterification processes for biodiesel production as renewable fuels to meet the future societal requirements. The authors have prepared sulfated niobium oxide (Nb2O5/SO4) impregnation method and used as solid acid catalyst for biodiesel production from macaw palm oil via high free fatty acid content transesterification with ethanol. As results, the catalyst Nb2O5/SO4, exhibits excellent catalytic activity towards biodiesel production (about ∼99 % ester content). The spent catalyst could be reused up to five consecutive catalytic cycles which shows excellent yield of the desired products and the reducing of the yield after fifth catalytic cycle could be due to the handling/physical loss of the catalyst during recycles and regeneration. 72 Sulfated zinc oxides SO4 2−-ZnO and SO4 2−/ZnO have been synthesized by co-precipitation and impregnation respectively and characterized as active solid acid catalyst. 73 The prepared catalysts have been used for trans-esterification of soybean oil with methanol to compare their performance for biodiesel production. As results at optimized reaction conditions, SO4 2–ZnO prepared by co-precipitation method exhibit highest catalytic activity and obtained FAME yields of ∼80 %.

Sulfonic ion exchange resins such as Amberlyst-15, –16, −35, −36 and −131, 74 , 75 Nafion resins 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 , 80 as SAC-13 and NR50 and EBD-100, -200 and −300, 81 were commonly used heterogeneous catalysts and found to be effective in liquid phase esterification and trans-esterification reactions. The protons bonded to the sulfonic groups are the responsible for the strong acidic active sites which are available on the cross-linked polymeric matrix of these ion exchange resins. The catalytic activity more depend on their surface properties which in turn effective populations of the acidic active sites for the trans-esterification and esterification reactions.

Mesoporous silica (SBA-15) supported ZnO/SBA-15 and MgO/SBA-15 have been prepared and characterized for solid acid catalytic activity. The results show that catalysts exhibit good catalytic activity and promote the esterification of lauric acid with 1-butanol to produce biodiesel (∼81 % yield of butyl ester) under atmospheric pressure and reflux conditions. 82 Tesser et al. have prepared Niobia supported catalyst by impregnation of silica pallets with loading of Nb and characterized for catalytic characteristics. The prepared solid acid catalyst has been used in both transesterification (free acid methyl ester conversion) and esterification (free fatty acid conversion) reactions of triglycerides for biodiesel production. The study, Nb supported on silica found to be much active in both the mentioned reactions with no loss of catalytic activity in the continuous run of 100 h but slow leaching of Nb observed which could be reduced the catalytic potential. 83 Xie et al. prepared lithium doped zinc oxide (Li/ZnO) using impregnation method followed by calcination at different temperatures and evaluated its catalytic activity for transesterification of soybean oil with methanol at optimized reaction conditions. 84 As results, Li/ZnO exhibits good catalytic activities towards soybean conversion to ester as obtained ∼96 % yields. The catalytic sites are in basic nature which is due to formation of Li2O from thermal decomposition of LiNO3 at higher calcination temperatures. The authors also have prepared CaO–MoO3-SBA-15 by incipient impregnation method with different calcination temperatures and tested for the similar transesterification reaction of soybean oil with methanol for biodiesel production. 85 The prepared solid catalysts, a catalyst with loading of 40 % and calcined at 550 °C shows highest catalytic activity (∼83 % yield of oil conversion) at the optimized the reaction conditions. The catalyst could be easily revered and reused without loss of its potential catalytic activity. 85 Viswanathan et al. 86 prepared sulfated Fe2O3–TiO2 from ilmenite and calcined for different temperatures. The prepared catalyst examined for its acidic active sites and used for conversion of vegetable oil to biodiesel via transesterification reaction with methanol. As results, the catalyst calcined below 500 °C shows higher conversion of vegetable oil with remarkable yield of biodiesel which is attributed to the high affinity of hydroxyl groups of methanol on Fe2O3–TiO2. The removal of sulfate groups has been observed during calcination on above 500 °C could reduce % yield of biodiesel production. 86

Mixture of strontium and nickel oxide has been synthesized by coprecipitation method followed by different calcination temperatures and characterized for catalyst properties. 87 The prepared catalysts have been used as heterogeneous catalysts for the transesterification of macaw palm oil with methanol for biodiesel production. The catalyst with the calcination temperature of 1,100 °C has highest catalytic activity as achieved ∼97 % conversion at the optimized reaction conditions as well as recycling studies also favoring the good % yield for the five catalytic runs. 87 Ong et al. 88 have studied catalytic activity of the carbon supported CuO catalyst in which the copper nanoparticles have been synthesized by sol-gel method and the nanoparticles impregnated into the pore network of the carbon supported. The prepared catalysts used in esterification of free fatty acid in the rubber seed oil and ∼95 % of the free fatty acid conversion was obtained at the optimized reaction conditions. The catalytic performance is comparable to the liquid acid H2SO4 as well as compared with other heterogeneous catalysts, the carbon supported-CuO could performed at lower temperature. The reusability study also shows about easy recovery and separation of the catalyst after process completion however it found with lower activity in the use of first catalytic cycle. Zhang et al. 89 have prepared sulfonic/carboxylic dual-acid catalyst based on sulfur-rich graphene oxide (GO-S) as cost effective SAC used for the esterification of the oleic acid with methanol to produce methyl-ester as biodiesel. The results show, GO-S exhibits good catalytic performance in term of activity and reusability which has high TON factor compared to other carbon based SACs. Having a two-dimensional layered structure and the strong synergetic effect between–SO3H and–COOH groups on the graphene nano-sheets, are the key factors for the catalytic activity of GO-S. 89 The study reveals the promising use of the GO-S in the esterification of the waste fatty acids to convert into the valuable biofuels.

2.1.2 Solid base catalysts

Metal oxides: Recently, alumina has been exhibited as a good support for catalytic material in catalytic process due to having good characteristics such as thermal and mechanical stabilities, high surface area, large pore size and pore volume. 90 Anisuzaman et al. have prepared CaO-supported basic alumina catalyst by impregnation method followed by calcination temperatures and characterized for their catalytic properties. 90

Alkali metal oxides (CaO, MgO and BaO) doped silica (SiO2) has been synthesized using sol-gel method followed by different calcination temperatures and used as base catalysts for the biodiesel production. 91 The catalytic transesterification reaction of corn oil with methanol shows that the catalyst CaO/SiO2 exhibits highest biodiesel production compared to other catalysts with the purity and yield of ∼97 % and ∼82 % respectively. 91 Ismail et al. have synthesized calcium oxide (CaO) from mud clam shell and used as potential heterogeneous catalyst for the biodiesel production. 92 The results of the catalytic transesterification reaction of castor oil with methanol show a good efficiency of CaO catalyst with the obtained ∼96 % yield of biodiesel formation using the optimum reaction conditions as well as the CaO catalyst from mud clam shell could be recycled and reused up to five catalytic runs. 92 Thitsartarn et al. also have reported calcium doped cerium-incorporated SBA-15 (Ca/CeS) synthesized by direct synthesis of Ca-incorporated-SBA-15 followed by impregnation of CaO. 93 The catalytic studies, the Ca/CeS shows excellent catalytic performance for biodiesel production trough catalytic transesterification of palm oil with methanol and also the highest catalytic activity found amongst the other supported catalyst such as CaO/CeO2 and CaO/CeO2-SBA-15. As being heterogeneous catalysis, negligible leaching of elements was observed due to strong interaction between CaO and CeS support. Furthermore, beneficially the catalyst could be reused for 15 catalytic runs with insignificant decrease in catalytic activity which reveals the very good efficiency of the catalyst for the biodiesel production. 93 Heterogeneous strontium oxide/calcium oxide (SrO–CaO) mixed metal oxides catalyst has been used in the ultrasonic-assisted transesterification of Jatropha oil into biodiesel. The catalyst characterization and the catalytic studies show that the prepared catalyst exhibits high efficiency for the conversion of Jatropha oil into biofuels. 94

Biodiesel production from non-edible Jatropha oil has been reported using acid-base bi-functionalized CaO–La2O3 heterogeneous catalyst. 95 The catalyst comprising CaO and La2O3 mixed metal oxides with different Ca/La ratios have been prepared by using co-precipitation method. As results, the highest biodiesel yield of ∼98 % has been achieved and binary catalyst system found to be more stable which was supported by recycling and reusability of the catalyst even after four catalytic cycles. The observed very good catalytic activity in the mixed metal-metal oxide is due to well dispersion of CaO on composite surface which enhance both surface acidic and basic sites as compared to that of bulk CaO and La2O3 metal oxide. 95 Wang et al. 96 have reported a series of acid-base bi-functional metal-boron catalysts prepared by sol-gel method followed by calcination temperatures and characterized by spectral and surface characteristics. Amongst the prepared catalysts, the Ca-Boron (700 °C) catalyst shows highest catalytic performance for the production of biodiesel with high acid value (yield of ∼98 %) through transesterification reaction of non-edible oil (Jatropha) with methanol using optimized reaction conditions. The catalyst exhibits a good stability and reusability which makes it promising acid-base bi-functional catalytic material for the biodiesel production. 96

Lee et al. 97 have studied the catalytic activity of mixed metal oxides (MMOs) (CaO–MgO, CaO–ZnO, CaO–La2O3 and MgO–ZnO) synthesized by co-precipitation method followed by calcination at different temperatures. MMOs contained high basicity and strong basic strength compared to single metal oxide which shows excellent catalytic performance in the transesterification process. As results of the studied catalytic reactions, the Ca-based MMOs catalysts exhibit highest catalytic activity in term of ∼90 % yields of biodiesel production and reusability with low metal leaching. Amongst three Ca-based MMOs, CaO–ZnO has comparative high conversion rate with ∼94 % yield of biodiesel and could be used for four catalytic cycles with negligible loss of activity. 97 Yigezu et al. 98 have studied catalytic activity of metal oxides such as Co3O4, KOH, MoO3, NiO, V2O5 and ZnO for catalytic conversion of oil into organic liquid products. As results, the catalysts are found to be suitable and active solid catalysts for the catalytic cracking of vegetable oil for bio-fuel production. 98

The review chapter more discussed on basic mixed-metal oxides (CaO and MgO based), acidic mixed-metal oxides (SiO2, SnO2 and Fe2O3 based) and acid-base bi-functional mixed-metal oxide (ZnO–La2O3, MnCeO2 and SrO–ZrO2). 60 Many of the catalysts studied are excellent in the catalytic performance for the biodiesel production through esterification or in-situ esterification and transesterification processes. 60 Refaat has briefly presented a review chapter on synthesis methods and characterization of various metal oxides commonly being used in the esterification and transesterification of oil with alcohol for the biodiesel production. 99 The chapter highlighting about the catalytic activity of alkali earth metal oxides, transition metal oxides, mixed metal oxides and supported metal oxides as heterogeneous catalysts in the transesterification reaction. The author has discussed about the catalyst selection and catalyst preparation for efficient transesterification process as well as explained the deactivation issue of the catalyst as important as catalyst activity. The author has concluded about the synergy between emerging technologies as ultra-sonication and microwave irradiation, on one side, and heterogeneous catalysis, on the other side, for the production of biodiesel appears to be very promising. 99 Cardoso et al. 100 have reported a review article about the importance characteristics related to the synthetic route, stability and activity of the tin catalysts in the esterification of triglycerides for biodiesel production with high free acid methyl ester content. They have explained the main structural features and physical properties of the solid tin catalysts such as SnO2, SO4 2−–SnO2, SO4 2−–SnO2–Al2O3, SO4 2−–SnO2–Fe2O3 with different Sn to Al and Fe molar ratio, for better understanding and significant contribution for the biodiesel production. 100

Vedrine has reported a review chapter on the fundamentals of heterogeneous catalysis and on metal oxides special members of heterogeneous catalyst family, acid-base catalyzed reactions, selective partial and total oxidation, de-pollution, biomass conversion and green chemistry including photocatalysis. 61 The main focus of the article is discussion on current industrial applications of supported and non-supported metal oxide catalysts. Chouhan et al. have presented a comprehensive review on a large number of modern heterogeneous catalysts for biodiesel production. 6 The report content discussed on alkali metal oxides, alkaline metal oxides and their derivatives, transition metal oxides, mixed-metal oxides (MMOs), ion exchange resin type oxides, sulfated oxides as solid acid catalysts, carbon and boron group base solids and enzyme based solid catalysts. The authors have discussed on the catalytic activity, selectivity, catalyst loading, catalyst reusability and summary of the future scopes. 6 Diamantopoulos et al. have introduced heterogeneous catalysts as important materials for the biodiesel production. 101 The authors have discussed on zeolite, mixed oxides, sulfonic acid group catalysts, sulfonic acid modified SiO2, HPAs and polyoxonetalates, supported and substituted HPAs and solid acid catalyst based in waste carbon. They have explained the catalytic activity of these catalysts in terms of their efficiency and reusability. The review revels the fact about the advantages of the solid acid catalysts although they are not much active than base catalysts, benefits such as procedure simplification and positive environmental impacts, support the utility of biodiesel production by using various efficient solid acid catalysts. The lower catalytic activity of the solid acids compared to other catalyst for transesterification reactions is usually compensated by operating at higher calcination temperatures (120–450 °C). 101

Hydrotalcites: The hydroxyl carbonates of magnesium and aluminum, hydrotalcites (HTs) are minerals belonging to the family of anionic clays, containing anionic species in the inter-lamellar space. HTs are being used as solid catalysts due to their physicochemical properties, such as thermal stability, porosity, specific large surface area (after calcination), memory effect, basicity or/and acidity, and anion exchange capacity. 106 , 107 Since last many years, researchers are developing Mg/Al as well as Ca/Al and mixed metal-based HTs materials using various synthesis routes and applied as heterogeneous catalytic materials for base catalyzed organic synthesis. 108 , 109 Herein, such studies have been noted about the performance of HTs for the biodiesel production.

Xie et al. have developed calcined Mg/Al hydrotalcites as heterogeneous base catalyst by using coprecipitation method for transesterification process of soybean oil and methanol to produce FAME through optimization of reaction conditions. 110 The catalyst calcined at 500 °C with Mg/Al ratio of 3.0 found to be most active having higher basicity and suitable for the reaction having ∼67 % FAME conversion. Yagiz et al. 111 have studied catalytic performances of the lipase enzyme immobilized hydrotalcites prepared by co-precipitation method by using commercial zeolites as immobilization materials. The obtained immobilized lipase materials have been used for transesterification reaction of oil. As results, HT was found to be the suitable supporting material for lipase than the other four types of zeolites used and it observed to be able to catalyze the transesterification of waste cooking oil with methanol to produce methyl esters. 111 Mg/Al hydrotalcites prepared by co-precipitation of Mg2+ and Al3+ ions in alkaline solution of NaOH followed by calcination at 400 °C. 112 The prepared catalyst used biodiesel production from pongamia oil with methanol through transesterification under optimized reaction conditions and resulted ∼90 % yield of pongamia oil methyl ester showing potential activity of the present catalyst. 112 The hydrotalcites catalyst with Mg/Al molar ratio of 3.0, calcined at 450 °C under argon (Ar) flow for 6 h has been characterized for spectral analysis. 113 The prepared material has been tested for transesterification reaction of soybean oil with methanol under mild conditions of temperature and pressure to produce biodiesel. The results show highest fatty acid methyl ester conversion of ∼94 % at optimized reaction conditions which makes material to be a promising heterogeneous base catalyst for biodiesel formation. 113 Chelladurai et al. 114 have studied an environmentally benign process for the transesterification reaction of neem oil with methanol to yield fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) using Zn–Mg–Al hydrotalcites as heterogeneous solid base catalysts thorough optimization of reaction conditions. The obtained highest triglyceride conversion rate was ∼92 % at optimized conditions and this could be attributed to the incorporation of Zn into the Mg–Al hydrotalcite material.

Diserio et al. 115 have reported catalytic performances of Mg/Al hydrotalcites (Pural©MG76) for biodiesel production through transesterification of soybean oil with methanol using both an autoclave and continuous packed bed reactor. The observations confirmed about the calcined Mg/Al hydrotalcites as effective heterogeneous catalyst for the transesterification of triglycerides with methanol where the used catalysts could be regenerated by washing with acetone and reused for the economical way without loss of significant performance. 115 Costarrosa et al. 116 have studied influences of the reaction parameters in terms of response surface methodology (RSM) for the heterogeneous transesterification of waste cooking oil with methanol to produce biodiesel using calcined Mg–Al hydrotalcite catalyst. The study has proved RSM as good indicative tool for predicting the biodiesel yield and also about the calcined Mg/Al hydrotalcites as an effective basic catalyst for the production of biodiesel from waste cooking oil. 116 Mg/Al hydrotalcites has been synthesized by urea hydrolysis and co-precipitation methods and characterized. 117 The prepared material tested for transesterification process of waste cooking oil (a triglyceride) with methanol and optimized the reaction conditions using hexane and glycerol as co-solvents. At optimized reaction condition, Mg/Al hydrotalcites as solid base catalyst gives maximum biodiesel yield and compared with the results of KOH as liquid homogeneous base catalyst. 117 A series of solid base catalysts, KF-doped three-metal mixed hydrotalcites (KF/Ca–Mg–Al) with different cation ratio have been synthesized and applied in transesterification process of palm oil with methanol to yield FAME. 118 The doping of KF and synergetic effect of Ca2+ and Mg2+ broadly improved the catalytic activity of the HT catalysts. As results, the prepared three-metal mixed hydrotalcites found to be highly active for biodiesel production and obtained ∼99 % FAME yield at optimized reaction conditions. 118 The spent catalysts could be regenerated and reused in the transesterification reaction where the FAME yield decreased apparently compared to fresh catalyst due to the fact that the layer structure of the catalyst helped raise the activity of the catalyst.

The Mg/Al based catalysts (double oxides of Mg and Al) prepared by coprecipitation method and characterized for structural properties. 119 The formed double lamellar hydroxides followed by calcination gives double oxides show interesting catalyst properties such as a large superficial area, synergic effect between its elements (which favors the development of the its basic characteristics) and also a shape memory effect, which allows the regeneration of the original structure. The prepared catalysts have been tested through heterogeneous catalytic transesterification reaction of vegetable oil with methanol and resulted in ∼97 % FAME formation. The study shows the potential use of the MgAl based hydrotalcites for the biodiesel production and suggesting further structural modification for the improved catalytic activity. 119 Mg/Al hydrotalcites doped with lanthanum and zinc cations with different amounts prepared by using co-precipitation method followed by calcination and the materials have been used as solid base catalyst in transesterification of soybean oil with methanol and n-octanol for biodiesel and biolubricants production respectively. 120 The transesterification reaction of canola oil with methanol has been reported using Mg/Al hydrotalcites heterogeneous solid base catalyst prepared by coprecipitation method followed by calcination. 121 The results of the catalytic reaction have been compared with KOH as conventional homogeneous catalyst where the present catalyst found to be less active than KOH.

The potential contribution of Mg/Al hydrotalcites prepared through layered double hydroxide has been reported for the biodiesel production using transesterification of triglycerides. 122 The interesting physico-chemical characteristics such as texture and surface morphology as well as basicity of the prepared materials could be modified through synthesis routes and chemical composition. The present report shows useful catalytic characteristic of the hydrotalcites as mixture of mixed oxides catalysts and as supports of active species like alkaline and alkaline earth metals compound. 122 Simonetti et al. have reported use of Ca/Al based hydrotalcites catalysts prepared by impregnation method using KOH solution followed by calcination for the transesterification reaction of soybean oil in methanol and ethanol to produce biodiesel. 108 The catalytic performance of impregnated and non-impregnated catalysts has been compared for the transesterification reaction and as a result, the non-impregnated exhibited with higher activity and hence better performances due to availability of active sites used in the transesterification process. 108 Mg/Al hydrotalcites prepared by co-precipitation followed by calcination and loaded with K2CO3. 123 The obtained material used as solid base catalyst for transesterification reaction of Jatropha curcas oil with methanol to produce FAME. In the study, spectral analysis confirmed the metal oxide formation which makes catalyst to be highly active and it could produce about ∼96 % yield of biodiesel (FAME) under optimized reaction condition. 123 Xue et al. 124 have synthesized activated Mg/Al hydrotalcites NPs by co-precipitation and hydrothermal activation with aqueous Ca(OH)2 solution and characterized its catalytic properties. 124 The prepared Ca-hydrotalcite contained both acidic and basic active sites due to which it could be used for esterification and transesterification of different oils with high acid value. The results show high catalytic activity for production of biodiesel (∼93 % yield) from crude oils with high acid value without pretreatment. 124

Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs): MOFs are porous materials, composed of metal sites and organic linkers, have become a research hotspot due to their exceptional advantages, such as versatile synthetic strategies for controlled morphology, abundant pores, and high surface area. 125 These properties grant MOFs versatile functionalities, which have attracted significant interest from the scientific community in recent years. 125 Their crystalline-to-amorphous nature, consisting of metal ions or clusters linked to organic ligands, offers remarkable surface areas, a high degree of structural diversity, and tunable porosity, making them ideal for a wide range of applications. 125

With the advantageous character of polyporous materials, MOFs have gained the most suitability for biodiesel synthesis. 126 Molybdenum-MOFs has been synthesized by solvothermal method and applied as catalyst in the esterification reactions of oleic acid and palmitic acid to obtain biodiesel. 127 As a result, a 95 % yield was achieved with the fresh Mo-MOFs, and it was successfully recycled for four cycles, maintaining ∼92 % efficiency. A hydrothermal synthesis of chromium(III) nitrate nonahydrate salt with EDTA as an organic ligand has been reported to prepare Cr(III)-EDTA MOF, which demonstrates efficient and promising performance for the esterification of oleic and palmitic acids under mild reaction conditions. 128 Copper(II) based MOFs, Cu-benzenedicarboxylic acid (Cu-BDC), Cu-benzenetricarboxylic acid (Cu-BTC) and MOF-74, provide many active sides that act as Lewis acid species and therefore, used as catalysts in the esterification process of waste cooking oil. 129 The synthesis of 75 % and 50 % oil content with Cu-BDC catalyst converted in FFA content of 5.49 % and 4.826 %, respectively.

2.2 Hydrogen production

Hydrogen (H2), as a fuel and one of the most extensively studied substitute energy resources for available sources those are being consumed rapidly. 130 , 131 The combustion of hydrogen can be considered as environmentally benign because it produces only water as by-product, and its adoption as fuel in internal combustion engines, would lead to a remarkable reduction in atmospheric pollution. 132 Now days, hydrogen-based technologies are being proposed for having economically and environmentally efficient system to produce hydrogen such as photo-catalytic water-splitting, 133 , 134 , 135 , 136 , 137 hydrocarbon decomposition, 138 , 139 photo-reforming 140 , 141 , 142 , 143 , 144 aqueous phase reforming, 145 , 146 , 147 , 148 , 149 , 150 and auto-thermal/oxidative steam reforming. 151 , 152 , 153 In this view, mono-metallic, bi-metallic or poly-metallic heterogeneous catalysts based on NPs (oxide supported) are well established catalytic systems for hydrogen production. Several Pd, Pt, Ru, Rh-based heterogeneous catalysts with comparable hydrogen production rate have been reported.

Santo et al. 132 have reviewed the specific catalytic applications of reforming processes such as steam, auto-thermal/oxidative steam, aqueous phase and dry reforming, catalytic partial oxidations, decomposition, photocatalytic water-splitting and photo-reforming reactions. The authors have reported heterogeneous catalysis based on supported bimetallic NPs, to the reactions favorable for the hydrogen production from the renewable raw materials. 132 They have discussed on advantageous applications of bimetallic versus monometallic catalytic systems, as well as focused on characterizations of structural properties. The correlation between structure and catalytic properties has an influence on the promoter addition. The potential of bimetallic catalyst NPs could be seen from the number of examples of the industrial applications significantly such as hydrogen production using photo-reforming and photocatalytic water-splitting those are discussed in the present article. 132

Furthermore, metal-supported heterogeneous catalysts can induce changes in the electronic properties of the catalyst surface, offering numerous opportunities for developing advanced catalysts with enhanced catalytic performance. 26 The noble metal catalysts are also interesting aspects of catalysis for hydrogen production through HER because of their ΔGH* is closed to zero. 154 Zhou et al. have related the catalytic activity with the electronic structure and chemical composition of noble metal-based electrocatalysts. 154 In continuation, a series of lanthanum based heterogeneous catalysts of 1 wt% Pt/LaMO3 where M = Al, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni has been synthesized and used in the catalytic study of aqueous phase reforming of waste biomass, such as glycerol for sustainable hydrogen production. 155

Nagaoka et al. 156 have demonstrated hydrogen production by oxidative decomposition of ammonia at room temperature to an acidic RuO2/γ-Al2O3 catalyst. In the study ammonia chemisorbed onto RuO2/γ-Al2O3 catalyst which further increased the amount of the multilayer physisorbed ammonia which causes strong heat evolution that enables to initiate the oxidative decomposition of the ammonia onto large surface of RuO2 NPs. The authors have measured and compared the autoignition temperatures of the RuO2/γ-Al2O3 and RuO2/γ-La2O3 catalysts. 156 As results, on ammonia and oxygen supply to the catalyst at room temperature, it has produced hydrogen along with nitrogen and water vapor. The process requires neither an external energy source nor the use of any complex procedures. The present study briefly introduces a conceptual idea of self-heating of catalysts by adsorption of reactant molecules which is a novel strategy for the cold-start process for hydrogen production from ammonia and other reactions.

Recently, a study discussed the progress and challenges in using non-noble metal cobalt-based heterogeneous supported catalysts, particularly carbon materials, metal oxides, MOFs, and nickel foams, for hydrogen generation from ammonia borane. 157 It provides insights into how the preparation of the electronic and spatial structures of Co-based catalysts can significantly influence the decomposition of ammonia borane for hydrogen generation. 157 Brack et al. 158 have introduced heterogeneous catalysis for the hydrogen production from the hydrolysis process of sodium borohydride (NaBH4). The authors have discussed about the factors affecting the catalytic hydrolysis process of aqueous solution of NaBH4 such as catalyst role, reaction conditions (temperature, time, concentration and volume of NaBH4 and the used stabilizers). The article has brief discussion about the catalysts based on noble metals, mainly focus on Pt and Ru as most efficient at rapid production of hydrogen from the aqueous NaBH4 solution. As noble-metal based catalysts resulting much expensive, transition metal-based particularly Co and Ni-based catalytic system would be a desirable alternative and much more work has been done for the hydrogen generation. Cobalt-borides are found to be emerging catalyst of choice due to low cost and simple synthesis procedures with high catalytic activity leading to maximum hydrogen production yields. They also have explained other transition metal-based as well as metal free-based heterogeneous catalysts for practical applications of the hydrogen generation. 158 Srifa et al. 159 also have studied hydrogen generation by ammonia decomposition using Cs-modified Co3Mo3N catalysts prepared by a facile single-step decomposition of a mixture of hexamethylenetetramine and corresponding metal salts under the flow of nitrogen at 700 °C. The kinetic study of the catalytic process shows influence of the presence of the Cs species as it significantly enhanced the catalytic activity of Co3Mo3N, an excess amount of Cs could be reduced the activity and hence lower the H2 production rate. The observed enhancement could be due to electronic modification of Co3Mo3N by the electron donation of Cs promoter. 159

Yan et al. 160 have compared catalytic activities of Ni, Co and W with ZrO2 support for hydrogen production from PEG-contaminated wastewater by supercritical water gasification process. The results of the analysis show Ni/ZrO2 exhibits highest hydrogen yields which could be due to catalyst inhibition of toxic intermediate production. The study demonstrated the promising use of Ni/ZrO2 as heterogeneous catalyst for hydrogen production in a supercritical water gasification process with high activity and stability. 160 Yuranov et al. 161 have developed a heterogeneous catalytic reactor for continuous production of hydrogen via formic acid dehydrogenation. The catalyst support consisting of cross-linked polystyrene beads and polymer electrolyte fuel cell operated on H2 + CO2 mixtures to produce neat hydrogen. The model presented could help to use formic acid as hydrogen carrier medium and to make maximum industrial application for the sustainable technology. Yamashita et al. 162 have addressed most relevant research approaches in hydrogen generation from two of the most promising hydrogen storage materials such as formic acid and ammonia-borane over carbon supported metal NPs based catalysts. The authors have highlighted recent advancement in mono-metallic and bi-metallic Pd-based and Ru-based catalytic system, also discussed about the important features like nano-particle size, electronic features and composition, functionality of the support and influence of the used additives present in the medium. They have concluded about the prior meet of the high performance heterogeneous catalysts for the hydrogen production with efficiency, economic and reusability. 162 The authors also have reported design and development of efficient Pd-based heterogeneous catalysts supported on carbon or carbon containing materials for the formic acid dehydration process in liquid phase for hydrogen production. 163 They have described important features of metal active phase and catalytic support for finding the efficient catalyst under the optimum experimental conditions. The main issue has been noted about the stability of the catalyst which has to be improved for the practical applications. In this context, modulating the nanoparticle-support interaction could be of great significance in achieving catalysts with notable stability. The incorporation of an adequate heteroatom through doping in the carbon material could be an effective tool to form interesting catalytic system for the current demand through appropriate surface fictionalization. Another way of modification in the synthesis route so that porosity of the carbon material support could be utilized in anchoring and dispersing the metallic active phase would be effective work of interest through which active and durable catalytic system could be developed, and searching useful capping agent to inhibit the nano-particle sintering under using experimental conditions. Also, they have concluded about future investigation to be initiated the use of non-noble metallic NPs as cost effective and durable active catalysts for the hydrogen production from dehydrogenation of the formic acid. 163 Yamaguchi et al. 164 have reported gaseous fuel production from non-recyclable paper wastes such as shredded documents and paper sludge over supported metal catalysts. The gasification catalytic reactions show, a charcoal-supported ruthenium (Ru/C) catalyst found to most active and among to the metal used, the order of the catalytic activity was found to be Ru > Rh > Pt. The gas fuel yield increases by ball-milling treatment of the recycled paper and cellulose powder. 164 The present conceptual technique indicating the possibility of fuel gas production from paper wastes in high-temperature liquid water.

Sikander et al. 165 have introduced scientific approaches reported by researchers for the hydrogen production using HTs based catalysts through describing synthesis methods and structural properties. The authors have briefly explained co-precipitation, urea hydrolysis, microwave treatment and sol-gel method of synthesis for HTs. Various methods of hydrogen production have been discussed such as steam reforming of methane, methanol, ethanol and dry hydrocarbons and partial oxidation of methane. The catalysts, HTs are observed to be more active in almost all hydrogen production processes because of high surface area. Furthermore, the compositional ratios of active metallic cations along with their interaction with the interlayers are a key role for catalytic efficiency. 166 , 167 Doping of element is another way to enhance the catalytic performance where use of noble metals (Pd, 168 , 169 Pt, 170 Rh 171 ) have been reported successfully. The rigorous operating conditions of hydrogen production processes could damage structural properties of the catalyst, sintering of the cations and deactivation of the catalyst also affects the catalytic efficiency of the HTs. The authors also have developed double layered HT based Mg–Ni–Al catalyst using co-precipitation method by varying Ni content and studied its catalytic performance for the hydrogen production through methane decomposition. 172 The nickel concentration has not been effective to the overall methane decomposition reactions due to the sintering of active sites species leads to depriving of the overall rate of methane conversion. The used catalyst support have played a typical role in the diffusion of the deposited carbon, resulted improved the overall performance rate.

Three metal-based HTs (Ni/Zn/Al-HT) with different Ni/Zn ratios have been prepared by a coprecipitation method and characterized for structural properties where HT and ZnO phases observed along with Zn2+ into the layer. 145 The prepared material has been used for hydrogen production via aqueous phase reforming of ethylene glycol and resulting high H2 generation rate with high selectivity. 145 Ni–Fe mixed oxides obtained from reevesite, a HTs type material prepared by co-precipitation method and tested for steam reforming of ethanol for hydrogen production. 145 The comparative performance of hybrid materials comprising a Ni-based reforming catalyst and HT (Ni-HT) or calcium based sorbents (Ni–CaO/Al2O3) has been reported for sorption-enhanced steam methane reforming for H2 production. 173 The prepared hybrid material (Ni-HTs) exhibited with superior adsorption characteristics and stability compared to powdered mixtures of commercial Ni/Al2O3 catalyst and the respective sorbent (CaO). 174 He et al. 175 have studied catalytic performances of noble-metal free-catalyst obtained from Ni/Al HTs for hydrogen production through hydrous hydrazine (N2H4·H2O) decomposition and compared with the ∼78 wt % Ni/Al2O3-IMP sample. The results show that supported Ni catalyst with a high loading and good dispersion exhibits ∼100 % conversion and ∼93 % H2 selectivity for the N2H4·H2O decomposition at room temperature. The observed activity is due to the cooperation of Ni NPs and strong basic sites which make catalyst as a promising candidate to replace noble-metals for hydrogen production under ambient conditions. 174 Homsi et al. 176 have prepared Co-based HTs (Co6Al2 oxide) and thermally stabilized and impregnated using metal precursors of Cu and Ru followed by calcination. The characterization results show formation of CuO, RuO2, Co3O4 and CoAl2O4 after calcination of the impregnated materials. Both, impregnated and non-impregnated samples have been used for the steam-reforming of the ethanol for H2 production. 176 As results, Ru with impregnated samples exhibit high catalytic activity compared to Cu-impregnated sample which is attributed to the formation of easily reducible Ru and Co-oxide species at the surface of the support. 176 The authors also have studied catalytic performances of Cu/Co–Mg–Al-based catalysts in the ethanol steam reforming reaction under atmospheric pressure in a fixed catalytic bed reactor coupled to a micro-gas chromatography. 177 From the reaction, H2 and CO2 evolved and it increased with the cobalt content and 5Cu/Co6Al2 gives very good conversion of H2 and CO2. The presence of copper as an active phase has improved ethanol conversion and H2 production compared to the results obtained in the case of the supports alone. The study leads to develop a catalyst operate at low temperature with high selectivity to avoid formation of by-products. 177 Tuza et al. 178 have reported hydrogen production by aqueous-phase reforming of glycerol using Ni/Cu catalysts derived from HT precursors. The obtained materials have been characterized for structural and surface properties. A clear improvement in the orderliness of the layer has been noted with decreasing copper content and samples with higher amount of copper have larger BET surface areas. The Ni-catalyst without Cu shows high catalytic glycerol conversion observed with good H2 selectivity and Ni5Cu catalyst also shows high H2 selectivity with the smallest amount of CO and CH4. 178

The compositional variation and structural advantages such as highly ordered and tunable metal nodes and organic linkers, MOFs enable rapid ion transport and high capacitance. With their abundance of active energy storage sites, MOFs have emerged as attractive candidates to meet the demands of next-generation energy storage technologies in batteries and supercapacitors.125c MOFs and their nanocomposites have been widely synthesized, particularly for their potential applications as hydrogen storage materials in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). 179 MOFs are also of interest as potential materials for use as electrode in lithium, zinc and sodium-ion batteries. 180

3 Environmental applications

Currently, the problem associated to the energy and environment has no universal solution to solve it. Most of human activities and more, rapidly increasing population and thus, even faster increasing global energy consumption and environmental burdens lead to generate the said unsolved problems. Many more awareness and progressively efforts are being applied to improve the efficiency and accessibility of environmental remediation and Green Chemistry processes. Environmental catalysis certainly plays a typical role in the design and development of efficient processes and technologies to reduce or to minimize waste generation throughout saving energy. 183 Herein, different heterogeneous catalytic systems have been discussed to understand relation between the structure/chemistry and the performance in heterogeneous catalysis which would help to design novel efficient materials for addressing the challenges in potential applications for environmental remediation. These include metal-based and/or metal-free-based catalysts and carbon-based catalysts for green chemistry, semiconductors-based catalysts for photocatalysis and other catalytic systems for environmental technologies.

3.1 Carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction

Faster deforestation makes sudden increment of CO2 concentration in atmosphere and thus, global warming problem and climate change become the interest of attention. 150 Therefore, now it is become necessary to find out a significant alternative to capture CO2 and convert it into useful chemicals and sources of fuel. 183 The availability of the alternative energy source is connected to the source of hydrogen which is carbon neutral and economically feasible. In this view, the hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol synthesis is providing a renewable or sustainable source of hydrogen.

There has been focused research work on finding selective catalyst that can capture or convert through CO2 activation under mild reaction conditions with maximum selectivity and yield of methanol. Bahruji et al. 184 have studied structure activity relationship of two series of Pd/ZnO catalysts prepared by immobilization and impregnation methods for direct hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol. As results, different performances observed for both catalysts prepared by different methods. Pd-NPs deposited through sol-immobilization method which produced active Pd/ZnO NPs catalysts with controlled particle size. It is observed that, high Pd loadings for colloidal catalysts increases methanol formation due to Pd–Zn bimetallic formation and also, methanol production could be reduced at higher temperature due to some sintering effect. 184 A multicomponent Cs-doped CuO–Fe2O3 supported on Al2O3 (Fe–Cu–Cs/Al2O3) catalyst has been reported for chemical CO2 recycling by reverse water-gas shift (RWGS) reaction and compared its catalytic activity with that of Fe/Al2O3, Fe–Cu/Al2O3 and Fe–Cs/Al2O3 catalysts. 185 The addition of Cu to the bare Fe/Al2O3 catalyst enhances the activity and selectivity because of Cu–Fe effect and reduced sintering. Similarly, addition of Cs promoter affects the catalytic activity of Cu–Fe/Al2O3 and thus, multicomponent catalyst Cs–Fe–Cu/Al2O3 has highest level of CO2 conversion with full selectivity to CO formation at low temperature. The study reveals the role of promoter added to the catalysts, Cs helps in CO2 activation due to its basic character in nature through ease of electron transfer from the catalyst to the reactants and facilitation CO2 adsorption on the catalyst surface. Addition of promoter also helps to suppress the methanation process and it could improve selectivity towards desired product. 185 The study concluding about unexceptional stability and selectivity could be gained through Cs-doped heterogeneous catalytic materials and it suggests using of such materials in gas phase chemical CO2 recycling. The authors have reported multicomponent Ni-based catalysts supported on Al2O3 promoted by the addition of Sn and CeO2 for the catalytic conversion of CO2. 185 The results also favoring the earlier study as addition of Sn and CeO2 promoters have improved the catalytic activity of Ni/Al2O3 through enhancement of CO2 adsorption on the catalyst surface. The presence of CeO2 enhances the oxygen storage capacity and modified acid/base characteristics of the support lead to improve catalytic behavior over a range of temperatures and space velocities. The catalytic system has also been applied to bi-reforming of methane reaction and significant conversion with stability was observed. 186 The study conducted provides a strategy to design and develop efficient and economic catalyst for practical syngas production form CO2/CH4 mixtures. Mutz et al. 187 have prepared bimetallic Ni3Fe catalyst supported on γ-Al2O3 using homogeneous deposition-precipitation method for application in CO2 methanation and correlate performance and structure of the catalyst. Spectral analysis shows, formation of Ni3Fe alloy with high fraction of Ni and Fe resulting into small and well defined NPs with controlled particle size and good dispersion. The catalytic performance of the prepared Ni3Fe has been compared with that of mono-metallic catalyst of Ni by using a micro-channel packed bed reactor under industrially relevant reaction conditions. As results, Ni3Fe exhibited with improved performance to have conversion of CO2 about ∼71 % selectively for methanol production and most important about retained a high stability. The study indicating importance of synergetic effect of Ni and Fe due to which catalyst has excellent performance and stability. 187 Cobalt catalysts supported on ZrO2 (Co/ZrO2) and Al2O3 (Co/Al2O3) prepared by impregnation with different metal loadings show good catalytic activity for CO2 methanation. 188

Veselovskaya et al. 189 have studied direct air capture/methanation process over the commercial nickel methanation catalyst NKM-2V which is effectively combine CO2 capture from ambient air and convert it into methane by Sabatier reaction. The experimental analysis showing enhancement of CO2 to CH4 conversion with increase of temperature and decrease in CO2:H2 ratio. The Sabatier process also performed well in the two reactor system using K2CO3/Al2O3 material for direct capture of CO2 from ambient air and the commercial nickel catalyst for methanation of CO2 via Sabatier process. Wu et al. 190 have studied influence of formate (HCOO) coverage on the reaction rate of methanol synthesis from CO2 hydrogenation over Cu (2 1 1) with the coverage-dependent adsorbate-adsorbate interactions. The study shows, increasing formate coverage would destabilize the adsorption of the reactant molecules/reaction intermediates and transition states. Turn over frequency varied at different coverage of surface species under the same reaction condition. The combination of HCOO and HCOOH hydrogenation steps could be a rate-determining step and thus, methanol formation could be controlled through surface coverage of formate and the effective free energy barriers. 190 Han et al. 191 have prepared Au nano-clusters with different particle size (average ∼2 nm) on various supports (ZnO, CeO2, TiO2, ZrO2) and studied their catalytic performance on direct hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol under solvent free condition. Among the all catalysts prepared, Au/ZrO2 with 1.6 nm particle size exhibits highest catalytic activity and selectivity towards methanol formation at low temperature, mainly because of small particle size and appropriate coupling between the Au particles and support in the catalyst. 191 Williams et al. 192 have prepared unsupported bimetallic Pd–In NPs by using thermal decomposition of Pd and In precursors in high boiling point solvent followed by reduction using dilute hydrogen gas. PdIn NPs catalyst has been tested for liquid phase methanol synthesis process and found to be most efficient catalyst showing ∼70 % higher methanol production rates compared to conventional catalysts such as Cu/ZnO/Al2O3. 192 Rao et al. 193 have studied fundamental physicochemical properties of CeO2 to improve its catalytic activity for energy and environmental applications. In the study, shuttle-shaped CeO2 prepared under hydrothermal condition by homogeneous precipitation method and the material shows good surface area and low temperature reducibility which show superior CO oxidation efficiency as environmental application. The linear sweep voltammetry, chronopotentiometry and CO stripping voltammetry studies show that CeO2 provides higher number of labile OH ads species through active triple-phase interfacial sites for facile oxidation of CO ads on Pt/C as energy application. 193 The study set a significant potential and anti-poisoning effect of CeO2 to Pt/C for electro-oxidation of ethanol in acidic media. Arena has reported the composite MnCeO x system having high redox activity, surface amphoteric behavior and good chemical stability as a viable alternative to highly-cost noble metals for a variety of environmental catalytic applications. 194 These include a range of applications such as the detoxification treatment of industrial wastewater; the abatement of pollutants in gas exhausts; and bio-15 fuel and fine-chemicals synthesis manufacture.

Jadhav et al. 195 have discussed about the recent advanced studies of last decade on catalytic CO2 hydrogenation to methanol. They have explained the importance of the various novel synthesis routes like solid-state reaction, ultra-nitrate combustion and reveres co-precipitation under ultrasound irradiation to prepare CuO/ZnO/ZrO2 heterogeneous catalysts. 195 The main focus was CuO/ZnO-based catalyst promoted with Pd and Ga for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol. As discussed earlier in the text, addition of Pd and Ga promoters enhances the catalytic activity, stability and selectivity of CuO/ZnO catalyst, i.e., Pd/ZnO 196 and Ga promoted Pd/SiO2, 197 show excellent catalytic behavior. Authors also have discussed two pathways of catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol; one is a RWGS and another, through mechanism of formate (HCOO) intermediate formation. 195 They have concluded, among the available alternate catalytic techniques for methanol synthesis from CO2 dehydrogenation via RWGS reaction would be promising tool. Porosoff et al. 198 have demonstrated the possible use of a low-cost non-noble metallic material Mo2C (molybdenum carbide) as an active and selective heterogeneous catalyst for conversion of CO2 using hydrogen. The spectral analysis shows that carbide is preliminary active phase of Mo2C while oxide form was observed throughout the reaction. Mo2C catalyst has ability to break C=O bond of CO2 and to dissociate hydrogen to either perform hydrogenation of CO2 or remove oxygen from Mo2Cz–O intermediate, thus, this way catalyst could show its dual functionalities which makes it suitable for CO2 activation. 198 The present catalyst preparation is much lower cost make possible to set a large-scale catalytic CO2 conversion process. Waclawek et al. 2 have discussed the mechanism of heterogeneous catalysis and advances in its development for environmental applications. They also have introduced a heterogeneous catalysis as an important aspect of the chemical process, from the synthesis methods and characterization techniques through surface morphology. The authors have highlighted the challenges about to improve spectroscopic and microscopic techniques to provide structural information such as chemical composition, size and shape of metal-NPs and gas phase concentrations in a spatially and time-resolved manner. They have suggested, industrial chemistry needs to combine all of these things together to understand the solid handling, chemical reaction, energy engineering, and heat and mass transfer of these catalytic processes. Theoretical scientist and physicist would have good partnership to make possible to design and develop superior catalytic systems for inexpensive fuel-cell vehicles. 2

Yan et al. 199 have provided detailed overview of the development of nickel-based bimetallic catalysts for chemical and electrochemical processes such as catalytic reforming, dehydrogenation/hydrogenation and electro-catalysis for energy production and environmental remediation. The authors have discussed the role of bimetallic surface and each metal counterpart of the reactions, and the surface activity relationships which are typical part of catalytic performances. They have explained diffusion rate of Ni which is the major issues related to the catalyst activity and stability under the different reaction conditions like high temperature for reforming condition. On point of view, to develop cost effective catalysts without compromising their activity and stability, it could be possible by alternative way of introduction of non-metal elements such as boron and phosphorous and already nickel-borides and phosphides could further improves the catalytic behavior for the desired applications. 199 Labhasetwar et al. 200 have studied a number of perovskites based on Co, Mn, Ru, and Fe and their substituted compositions. The prepared perovskites catalysts show good redox properties, the promotional effect of co-ions, and the increased exposure of catalytically active transition metals in certain preparations. The catalysts exhibited enhanced catalytic activity for diesel soot oxidation, three-way catalysis, NO decomposition, low-temperature CO oxidation and oxidation of volatile organic compounds. 200 Wang et al. 201 studied the physicochemical properties of fly ash exhibiting strong thermal stability and characteristic of a catalyst support. The fly ash supported catalysts have shown a very good heterogeneous catalytic activity for a variety of catalytic reactions as H2 production, CO2 reforming of methane, NH3 decomposition, catalytic reduction of NO x and SO x , methane oxidation, dye decomposition, petroleum hydrocaracking. 201

MOFs have also been reported to be efficient photocatalyst 202 and electrocatalysts 203 for CO2 capture. Cobalt–porphyrin MOF has been examined for selective reduction of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide in aqueous electrolytes with the 76 % yield and stability over 7 h with a per-site turnover number of ∼1,400.204b A case study on Bi-based MOFs has been reported for electrochemical CO2 reduction and as results excellent activity, selectivity, and durability for formate production.204c

3.2 Degradation of organic pollutants

Rapidly developing industrial activities produce huge amount of organics containing non-degradable solid wastes which are spread out in the open environment and further contaminates groundwater and surface water as well as air. The major contamination produces from petroleum refining, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, dye, paper, plastic, dairy production, fertilization and pesticide chemical industries etc. 207 , 208 , 209 Many reports are published related to develop effective process and technologies for waste-water treatment and oxidation process to decompose toxic and hazardous impurities at low cost and high efficiency. The literature on heterogeneous catalysis opens the ways about to use of novel catalytic systems for the decomposition of organic wastes from the aqueous solution as well as conversion of toxic gaseous pollutants to harmless products.

The most preferred catalytic systems are those based on photocatalysis with advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), as they offer the potential to utilize naturally available and renewable solar energy as a light source for photochemical waste remediation, making the process both green and sustainable. 209 Among AOPs, semiconductor-mediated photocatalysis has proven to be highly effective, as it completely mineralizes contaminants present in either the gas or liquid phase. 210 , 211 In these intriguing and effective fields of innovation, TiO2 photocatalysis and the photo-Fenton process are two well-established AOPs. As a result, there are a significant number of literatures on their environmental applications, such as water and air decontamination, as well as self-cleaning surfaces.

Merouani et al. have explored the use of AOPs, particularly for environmental remediation, followed by photoactivated processes. 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 In these studies, authors have developed a number of active radicals to facilitate the formation of reactive species for the degradation of toxic dyes such as chlorazol black,14a Allura Red AC,14b Safranin O,14c textile dyes and organic contamination. 15 The authors also applied the combined use of heterogeneous photocatalysis with high-frequency ultrasonic irradiation for dye and phenol degradation. 16 , 17 It was observed that the solar photocatalytic process operated efficiently, even when the pollutant was present at high concentration levels. It could be attributed to the occurrences of synergistic effect strongly dependent on the initial substrate concentration. 212

Duan et al. 213 have discussed AOPs as effective technique for activating superoxides radicals for degradation of organic pollutants in aqueous systems. Magnetic (Fe3O4) carbon supported manganese oxides (Fe3O4/C/Mn) have been used as an effective catalytic system for phenol degradation through peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. 214 In the catalytic system, radical generation takes place due to redox process of Mn4+/Mn3+ and magnetic support helps for catalyst separation. The catalyst CoFe2O4, prepared from Co–Fe alloys for the catalytic oxidation process via PMS activation to generate sulfate radicals. 215 A catalytic system, Ce–Mg/Al2O3/ozone has shown good efficiency for decomposition of resistant petroleum organic wastes. 216

Mesoporous CuO/TiO2 nanotubes and CuO nanorods-reduced graphene oxide prepared for catalytic oxidation of air pollutant CO to CO2. 217 Mixed metal oxides of Fe–W–Ce 218 and V2O5–WO3/TiO2, 219 used for conversion of NO x with NH3 into N2 and H2O. Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene and reduction of N2O could be simultaneously performed by using Cr/Al2O3, 220 as well as N2O has been directly decomposed on Cu–Zn/ZnAl2O4 and Zn/γ-Al2O4. 221

Wang et al. 222 have prepared red mud supported Co-oxide based catalysts as significantly effective for phenol decomposition via PMS activation. The authors also have reported natural zeolites supported Co oxide catalysts for phenol degradation through oxidation and adsorption process. 223 Sharma et al. 224 have demonstrated heterogeneous Fenton or Fenton-like reactions like H2O2–Fe3+ (solid)/nano-zero-valent iron/immobilized iron and electro-Fenton-pyrite for decomposition of dyes and phenols.

Wang et al. 225 have prepared MnO2 nanoparticles as α-, β- and γ–MnO2 obtained as nanowires, nanorods, and nanofibres respectively. The prepared catalysts were tested for phenol degradation and α–MnO2 was found to be more effective and stable in term of recyclability for phenol decomposition. They also have reported a comparative study of Mn3O4, Co3O4 and Fe3O4 nanoparticles for decomposition of phenolic contamination in aqueous solution. The catalysts are found to be effective in heterogeneous activation of PMS to produce sulfate radicals for phenol degradation and the order of catalytic activity was observed as Mn3O4 > Co3O4 > Fe3O4. 226 Powder activated carbon materials have been reported as green heterogeneous metal-free catalysts for the degradation of phenol through generation of sulfate radicals. 226 The degradation study shows that activated carbons were significantly effective with PMS to produce sulfate radicals compared to use with H2O2 and peroxydisulfate.

Galeano et al. 227 have briefly introduced mixed Al/metal-pillared clays as effective catalytic system for the degradation of organic pollutants in aqueous streams. The prepared catalytic system using Fe, Cu and Mn show metal pollution prevention and an effective performance under operative conditions. Al/Fe-pillared clay has been exhibited as most active catalyst for catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) process and possesses desirable features of a catalyst able to operate the CWPO detoxification over a wide variety of real wastewaters. 227 Nair et al. have evaluated catalytic activity of Mn-substituted zinc nanoparticles (Mn x Zn1-x Fe2O4) prepared by sol-gel method. 228 As results, catalyst found to be very active wet peroxide oxidation of p-chlorophenol. Zhang et al. have evaluated catalytic performance of acid-modified coal fly ash catalyst for a Fenton-like process in p-nitrophenol wastewater treatment. 229 Zhen has briefly reviewed on cobalt oxide (Co3O4) 230 as environmental catalysis for catalytic reduction of NO by ammonia, hydro-desulfurization of COS, ozonation degradation of phenol, photocatalytic degradation of selective hydration of aromatic nitriles, 231 oxidative dehydrogenation of propane, 232 oxidative dehydrogenation of cyclohexane, 233 and hydrogen production by photo-catalytically. 234 Kumar et al. 235 have introduced various synthesis routes for aerogels and metal-organic framework as well as potential utilities as heterogeneous catalysts for environmental and energy applications. These include removal of heavy metals, CO2 capture and reduction, photodegradation of pollutants, air cleanup and water splitting as environmental and energy production through hydrogen, methane reforming, CO2 conversion and NO x removal as energy applications.

So far we have discussed on advanced oxidation processes (Fenton process, ozonation, sonolysis etc.) to reduce/control the organic pollutants from the aqueous and air, where active radicals involve in decomposition of large polluting molecules to small harmless molecules. Besides use of such heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis gaining huge attention with significant advancements being made in the synthesis of novel catalytic materials and nano-structures, and the design of efficient processes for the degradation of aqueous as well as atmospheric organic pollutants. Thus, photocatalysis is considered to be the most practical tool due to its usage of sunlight to decompose organic pollutants to convert them into valuable chemicals. A number of semiconductor-based (TiO2, CdS, CdSe, ZnO, SiO2, ZrO2 etc.) photocatalysis are now well established and are being employed as environment-friendly catalytic process.

Many researchers are engaged to design novel photocatalyst by considering the current environmental challenges and providing a clean and sustainable photocatalytic system. Dong et al. 236 , 237 , 238 have reported photocatalytic NO removal by using O/La co-functionalized amorphous graphitic carbon nitride (g–C3N4) which shows good efficiency. The incorporation of O and La form interlayer induce electron transportation which could reduce energy barriers and hence enhanced photocatalytic activity. The authors also have reported photocatalytic activity of Sr–intercalated g–C3N4 for oxidation of NO to convert non-toxic molecules selectively for air pollution control. 238 O/Ba co-functionalized amorphous carbon nitride system has exhibited enhanced photocatalytic NO removal rate with good selectivity to produces NO2 and NO3 while it also preventing the generation of toxic intermediate NO2. The authors also have prepared thermally and chemically stable Bi3WO6 tested for photocatalytic NO oxidization. 239 The presence of oxygen vacancy narrows the band gap and also promotes visible light absorption hence; the enhanced activity was observed.

Particularly, CdS as a photocatalyst has gained extensive interest due to its relatively narrow band-gap for visible-light absorption and sufficiently negative potential of the conduction band edge for the reduction of protons. 240 Generally, CdS is one of the most prominent semiconductors as a visible-light-responsive photocatalyst with a band gap of 2.4 eV among the other photocatalyst being used for hydrogen production. Cheng et al. 241 have introduced CdS and CdS–based photocatalyst that possess excellent photocatalytic activity in terms of solar-fuel generation and environmental cleaning through degradation of pollutants, hydrogen production and reduction of CO2 to hydrocarbon fuels. The monovalent CdS nanoparticles with different crystal forms (wurtzite phase and zinc blende phase) have been evaluated for the hydrogen production. 241 Zhang et al. have prepared CdS nanorods by a one-step solvothermal method and obtained an excellent photocatalytic activity for H2 production with a high dispersion of Pt. 242 There are many studies reported on binary CdS-based photocatalytic nano-composite materials such as CdS/ZnO, 243 CdS/TiO2, 244 , 245 and CdS/graphene, 246 CdS/sulfides (CdS/CuS), 247 CdS/ZnS, 248 Bi2S3/CdS 249 , 250 and, CdS/WS2, 251 MoS2/CdS, 252 for H2 evolution. The main advantage of the combination of such nano-composite construction is to improve photochemical properties and crystal forms of CdS and also increase the photogenerated electrons for photocatalytic H2 production. Recently, researchers have made efforts to combine CdS with other two co-catalysts to form ternary CdS-based photocatalysts such as CdS/WS2/graphene, 253 CdS/MoS2/graphene, 254 , 255 , 256 CdS/g–C3N4/CuS, 257 CdS/Ag2S/carbon-nano-tube (CNT), 258 CdS/WC/TiO2, 259 and CdS/MoS2/TiO2. 260 The photocatalytic hydrogen production was enhanced by using these ternary CdS-based photocatalysts and also preventing photo-corrosion.

Beside use of CdS for photocatalytic H2 production, it also makes significant contribution for environment cleaning as well as energy storage through conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) to produce useful hydrocarbons such as methane, methanol, formic acid and formaldehyde etc. The reduced graphene oxide/CdS nano-rods composite exhibits very good photocatalytic activity for conversion of CO2 to methane where graphene oxide act as photoelectron acceptor and thus reduced recombination rate of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and hence enhanced photo-response. 261 CdS-based, CdS/ZnIn2S4, 262 nano-composite and CdS/TiO2, 263 nano-tube array has been exhibited with efficient dye degradation under visible irradiation and under sonication respectively.

TiO2, as an extensively studied and robust material in the field of photocatalysis research, as it was beginning from 1972 Fujishima and Honda et al., about the noble work of H2 production from water splitting. 264 TiO2 nanoparticles have wide range of applications and acts as back bone for many advanced process and devices such dye sensitized solar cells, sensors and rechargeable batteries/super capacitors etc. 265 , 266 Many more applications have already been well set for commercial productions like biomedical devices and drug delivery which has made TiO2 itself undivided part of photo-induced processes. Many researchers have reviewed about possible surface and structural modification for TiO2 and also about their catalytic mechanism revel more interesting facts about TiO2 photocatalysis. 244 , 266 , 267 , 268

Among all the possible applications of TiO2 as photocatalyst, it has been extensively used for photodegradation of various pollutants. It is very interesting to study about TiO2 semiconductor based photocatalytic mechanism upon absorption of photons and generation of reactive radical species through electron-hole pair recombination process. The pure mesoporous TiO2, TiO2 -nanorods and -nanotubes have been demonstrated for their excellent photocatalytic activity for degradation of organic pollutants under suitable conditions.

In addition, progressive performances continuing through surface modification into TiO2 by doping metal and non-metals which enhance visible light adsorption. Recently we have reviewed on the possible surface modification into TiO2 photocatalysts as well as including development of Plasmonic photocatalyst.245b

As part of environmental catalysts, MOFs also have been explored for air and water environmental remediation processes including removal of toxic metal ions, photocatalytic degradation of toxic dyes and other organic pollutants. 269 Recently MOFs of MIL-125(Ti)–NH2, MIL-125(Ti) and MIL-125(Ti)-(NH2)2, 270 UiO-66 and UiO-66-NH2, 271 MOF-5, 272 NH2–UiO-66(Zr) , 273 NH2-UiO-66(Hf) 274 and HKUST-1 275 are considered to have good to excellent gas adsorption capacity.

4 Major challenges for heterogeneous catalysis

Since over the many decades, catalysis researchers have been at the lead in addressing numerous challenges in generation of efficient energy resources, controlled on pollution, and sustainable development. The advanced strategies and approaches being developed by the catalysis community have led to significant changes, contributing to economic growth.

At the core of these efforts, heterogeneous catalysis offers low cost, high conversion efficiency, and product selectivity, enabling a wide range of industrial processes to proceed effectively. The recyclability of heterogeneous catalysts promotes green and sustainable manufacturing while preventing secondary pollution. From an economic perspective, the Heterogeneous Catalyst Market was valued at USD 24.6 billion in 2023 and is expected to register a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 4.8 % between 2024 and 2032. 276 More than 80 % industries such as petrochemicals, chemicals, and refining continue to expand globally; the demand for heterogeneous catalysts is increasing.

However, applying heterogeneous catalysis on an industrial scale presents a exclusive set of challenges that can influence efficiency, cost, and sustainability. Therefore, its advancement requires the search for new materials with optimal catalytic activity and economic feasibility. In many important cases, catalyst deactivation often leads to a reduction in overall catalyst performance due to substantial or complete blocking of surface sites, carbon deposition, pore plugging, and the destruction of the catalyst. Catalyst deactivation (nonselective and selective deactivation) must be estimated in an industrial unit using temperature profiles, which can then guide decisions regarding improved process control and timely catalyst replacement.

The efficiency of a heterogeneous catalyst is strongly dependent on the ability of reactants to reach and interact with active sites on the catalyst surface. In the context of biodiesel production, the catalyst surface should exhibit hydrophobic properties, such as mesoporous surface reactivity, which helps facilitate the adsorption of oily hydrophobic species onto the catalyst’s surface. Therefore, the hydrophobicity of acid sites has become a key focus, as it minimizes poisoning by polar molecules. In case of high temperatures, catalyst may undergo structural changes leading to further loss of catalytic activity, compromising the process efficiency and leading to potential process failures. Developing and testing catalysts with sustainable thermal stability is essential for applications that involve high temperatures. Another important issue is translating a catalytic process from the laboratory to an industrial scale. Heat and mass transfer conditions are not identical at both scales, so scalability must be carefully considered for successful industrial application.

In general, variations or modifications in synthetic methods that controls the physico-chemical and thermal characteristics of heterogeneous catalysts that can lead to significant changes in reactivity and selectivity of the catalyst. Thus, we have to continue to design and modify new with the present characteristics to understand the interaction of the whole catalytic system. Additionally, understanding the effects of reaction conditions on the catalyst at a molecular level still requires the assistance of advanced, predetermined technologies. In this regard, computational screening technology can be a viable solution, providing acceptable estimations of surface reactivity with relatively low-cost information.

5 Conclusions

The present review article providing a prior literature on advancement of heterogeneous catalysis with its environmental and economic benefits in the field of energy generation and sustain the available feedstock as well. The varieties of materials have been discussed to explore theirs possible utilities as an emerging aspect of the materials science. Heterogeneous catalytic systems such as solid acids (H-form zeolites, sulfated-oxides, sulfonic ion exchangers, mesoporous silica materials, zirconia and titania supported materials), solid bases (β-zeolites, hydrotalcites, alkali metal- and mixed metal-oxides), transition metal based-MOFs catalysts are playing key role for biodiesel production as an alternative fuel source. As a part of heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis has major contribution for the environment remediation and exhibits as a promising green approach for the future demand with further investigation.

The present report could help to rational design a novel material by tuning the surface morphology and structural properties, and hence an efficient and non-expensive catalytic system as a part of eco-friendly way out to overcome the present challenges. The further progress in the heterogeneous catalytic systems will facilitate alternative fuel production and thus they can substitute the present expensive and hazardous catalytic systems.
