Abstract

The paper provides the literature data on heterogeneous catalysts for catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO). A survey of investigations on process mechanism and kinetics of the CWAO is presented. The performance of various reactors types is analyzed using experimental data and results of simulations. Monolithic catalysts for the CWAO are discussed. The possibility of application of monolithic reactors for the CWAO process is analyzed.
