Description
Homogeneous cobalt catalysts may provide viable alternatives for sustainable production of fuels, straying from the need of environmentally costly metals. This study explains the synthesis of the interested cobalt catalyst and its ability to be a more economically favorable means for the production of high value chemicals from a lower value feedstock.
