Activated carbons treated with sulphuric acid: Catalysts for catalytic wet peroxide oxidation

Different liquid phase thermal treatmentswere applied to a commercial activated carbon (Norit ROX 0.8) in order to produce modified activated carbons with varying surface chemistry and increased acidic character. Chemical characterization of the prepared materials includes determination of the point of zero charge and evaluation of the concentration and nature of acidic and basic surface functi...

Heterogeneous catalytic wet air oxidation of refractory organic pollutants in industrial wastewaters: a review.

Catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) is one of the most economical and environmental-friendly advanced oxidation process. It makes a promising technology for the treatment of refractory organic pollutants in industrial wastewaters. Various heterogeneous catalysts including noble metals and metal oxides have been extensively studied to enhance the efficiency of CWAO. The present review is concerne...

Wet Air Oxidation and Catalytic Wet Air Oxidation for Refinery Spent Caustics Degradation

The work focuses on evaluating wet air oxidation and catalytic wet air oxidation technique to degrade refinery spent caustics (original COD is 250,781 mg/L) in a milder operation conditions (150-200 ̊C, 0.2-2.5MPa). The results show that: in non-catalyst WAO, the highest COD degradation conversion could reach about 75% when 200 ̊C, 2MPa oxygen and 300rpm were used. At every temperature, the react...

Catalytic properties of carbon xerogels for wet oxidation of aniline

Wet air oxidation (WAO) is an old process developed in the middle of the XX century, but still the centre of very active and contemporary research especially in what concerns catalyst development. In ideal conditions soluble hydrocarbons can be oxidized in aqueous solution to carbon dioxide and water. Organic pollutants with heteroatoms are more challenging, because they require harsh condition...
