In the definition of a carbon-neutral energy system and chemical production, the use of hydrogen plays a pivotal role. However, considering the risks associated with its storage and transport under cryogenic conditions and/or at high pressure, the employment of low pressures alternatives is urgent. LOHCs represents a safe and efficient option. This contribution will discuss the use of LOHCs as energy and hydrogen carriers as well as their application in biomass valorization reactions to produce value-added compounds. In this context, the attention will focus on formic acid and small alcohols that are a renewable H-source promising in relevant chemical transformations.

Abstract
In the definition of a carbon-neutral energy system and chemical production, the use of hydrogen plays a pivotal role. However, considering the risks associated with its storage and transport under cryogenic conditions and/or at high pressure, the employment of low pressures alternatives is urgent. LOHCs represents a safe and efficient option. This contribution will discuss the use of LOHCs as energy and hydrogen carriers as well as their application in biomass valorization reactions to produce value-added compounds. In this context, the attention will focus on formic acid and small alcohols that are a renewable H-source promising in relevant chemical transformations.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
