Spent coffee ground-derived biochar with trimodal porosity: green biochar supported highly dispersed TiO <sub>2</sub> and Nb <sub>2</sub> O <sub>5</sub> nanoparticles as an efficient novel catalyst for lactic acid synthesis
Trimodal porosity was generated in a spent coffee ground-derived biochar structure due to the synergistic effect between lanthanum and zinc, resulting in a lactic acid yield of 14% over 10% Ti–0.5% Nb/AC.
