Abstract(s)
It is known that metal-free carbon materials can act as catalysts for the catalytic
wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) process to treat organic pollutants in aqueous
solutions [I]. On the other hand, crude glycerol, such as resulting from biodiesel
production, is being offered as an abundant and low cost feedstock [2]. In the
present work, glycerol-based carbon materials (OBCMs) with distinct properties
were produced and tested as catalysts for CWPO, using 2-nitrophenol (2-NP) as a
non-biodegradable model pollutant.
