Abstract: Changes in the structural and textural properties of NiAl-layered double hydroxides (LDHs) (with 2–4 molar ratios of metals) and state of nickel that occur in different steps of the synthesis of nickel catalysts were studied using XRD, thermal analysis, TPR, low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, XANES, EXAFS, and electron microscopy methods. Relations between nickel content, catalyst reduction conditions, state of nickel, and its catalytic properties were revealed. It was shown that the use of NiAl LDH as the catalyst precursor even at a high content of active metal allows for the obtaining of the dispersed particles of supported nickel that are active in the aqueous-phase hydrogenation of furfural. The catalyst activity and conversion of furfural were found to increase with elevation of the catalyst reduction temperature and the corresponding growth of the fraction of reduced nickel. However, a lower reduction temperature (500 C) makes it possible to form smaller nickel particles with the size of 4–6 nm, and a high Ni content (Ni:Al = 4) can be used to obtain the active Ni@NiAlOx catalyst. Under mild reaction conditions (90 C, 2.0 MPa), the furfural conversion reached 93%, and furfuryl alcohol was formed with the selectivity of 70%. Under more severe reaction conditions (150 C, 3.0 MPa), complete conversion of furfural was achieved, and cyclopentanol and tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol were the main hydrogenation products.
