Previous works reporting the use of carbon materials in the oxidative treatment of aromatic compounds and of nitrogen containing compounds seem to indicate that their catalytic activity is intimately related to their surface chemistry and porous texture [1- 3]. In this work we prepared a mesoporous carbon xerogel (CX) material with a significant amount of oxygen functional groups and tested it in the Catalytic ...
The main objective of this work was to develop carbon materials suitable to be used efficiently in catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) processes. Accordingly, carbon xerogels with different mesoporous surface area and chemistry were prepared by the conventional sol-gel approach and tested in the CWAO of aniline at 200ºC and 6.9 bar of oxygen partial pressure. The developed materials showed high activity in anili...
