Cu-based catalyst supported on complex metal oxide structures having meso- and macropores for preparing 1, 2-propanediol

摘要

The present invention relates to a copper-based catalyst for preparing 1,2-propanediol, wherein copper as an active metal is supported on a complex metal oxide structure having mesopores and macropores at the same time, a method for preparing the copper-based catalyst, and method for selectively preparing 1,2-propanediol from dehydration and hydrogenation of glycerol using the copper-based catalyst.
