OXIDATION OF PHENOL IN AQUEOUS SOLUTION WITH COPPER OXIDE CATALYSTS SUPPORTED ON γ-Al2O3, PILLARED CLAY AND TiO2: COMPARISON OF THE PERFORMANCE AND COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EACH CATALYST
Abstract The Catalytic Wet Air Oxidation (CWAO) of phenol using copper oxide catalysts supported by γ-Al2O3, TiO2, and pillared clay was evaluated to identify which of these catalysts was the most appropriate for this reaction. The CuO/PILC, CuO/γ-Al2O3 and CuO/TiO2 catalysts were the most successfu...
