Oxidation of Olefins over Palladium Salts-Active Charcoal Catalysts

Cationic palladium(II) complexes as catalysts for the oxidation of terminal olefins to methyl ketones using hydrogen peroxide

Ligated Pd(II) complexes have been studied for the catalytic oxidation of terminal olefins to their corresponding methyl ketones. The method uses aqueous hydrogen peroxide as the terminal oxidant; a sustainable and readily accessible oxidant. The choice of ligand, counterion and solvent all have a significant effect on catalytic performance and we were able to develop systems which perform well...

Catalytic oxidation of CO in presence of ozone over supported palladium catalysts

Palladium supported Al2O3 and SiO2 catalysts have been synthesized and evaluated for carbon monoxide oxidation in the presence of ozone. The factors affecting the CO oxidation such as Pd loading (wt%), contact time, reaction temperature and O3/CO molar ratio have been studied. The extent of ozone decomposition on Pd catalysts is proportional to the CO oxidation activity. High reaction temperatu...

Method Of Forming Supported Doped Palladium Containing Oxidation Catalysts

Palladium nanoparticles supported on a triptycene-based microporous polymer: highly active catalysts for CO oxidation.

Pd nanoparticles were well dispersed on a new triptycene-based microporous polymer support by the gas bubbling-assisted membrane reduction (GBMR) method. The stability of Pd nanoparticles is improved by the porous support, and the materials show excellent performance for CO oxidation.

Toluene oxidation by non-thermal plasma combined with palladium catalysts

The oxidation of toluene in air was investigated using a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) combined with a Pd/Al2O3 catalyst. When using only plasma, rather low selectivity toward CO2 was obtained: 32-35%. By filling the DBD reactor with Pd/Al2O3 catalyst the CO2 selectivity was significantly enhanced (80-90%), however, a large amount of toluene was desorbed from the catalyst when the discharg...
