Catalytic Removal of Bromates from Water: A Hands-On Laboratory Experiment to Solve a Water Pollution Problem through Catalysis

Catalysis is not only one of the most crucial principles Green Chemistry but also used industrial strategies to improve yields and shift more environmental-friendly processes. Due great importance catalysis, we propose a laboratory activity related heterogeneous catalysis courses (upper undergraduate students). It involves preparation catalyst, study its in three-phase reaction, analysis results. The selected reaction catalytic removal bromates water that can be easily monitored by simple titration method. Students will analyze products, with obtained data, they work different concepts catalysis. In brief, this hands-on enables students apply themselves as an effective tool solve pollution problem.
