AB  - Oxalic acid was employed for the catalytic transfer hydrogenation of used vegetable cooking oil. Hydrogen production was achieved upon the decomposition of oxalic acid using a commercial industrially sulfided NiW/SiO2-Al2O3 catalyst. Products were analysed by attenuated infrared spectroscopy, simulated distillation and gas chromatography-flame ionisation detection/thermal conductivity detection for the produced gases. No hydrogen gas was added for these tests, which were performed in a nitrogen atmosphere at an initial pressure of 0 bar in an autoclave. Unprecedented results were obtained, with a high yield of deoxygenated hydrotreated vegetable oil hydrocarbons being achieved while avoiding the use of formic acid, which is both toxic and irritant.
