Abstract
- Abstract: Catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) of aqueous solution of acetic acid (78mmolL−1) was carried out with pure oxygen (2MPa) at 200°C in a stirred batch reactor on platinum supported oxide catalysts (Pt/oxide, oxide=CeO2, Zr0.1Ce0.9O2, Zr0.1(Ce0.75Pr0.25)0.9O2 and ZrO2). Platinum was loaded on oxides by impregnation (5wt%), and then the catalysts were reduced under H2. Homogenous dispersions of 2–3nm metal crystallites were obtained. The catalytic activity depended on the ability of the support to resist to the formation of carbonates. Ce(CO3)OH species, determined by FT-IR and XRD, were rapidly formed during the CWAO reaction especially on mixed oxides. These carbonates were responsible to a drastic drop in catalytic performances. Amounts of carbonate species increase with the ability of the catalyst to transfer oxygen. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
