Abstract

Catalytic wet air oxidation process, enable to eliminate organic pollutants with non toxic by-product formation, was investigated in micellar system under room condition. Degradation of a series of aromatic compounds, including aromatic hydrocarbons, benzyl alcohol, benzaldehyde, benzoic acid, and some N-containing compounds was carried out based on molybdovanadophosphoric polyoxometalates [(C16H33)N(CH3)3]3+x PV x Mo12−x O40 (x = 1, 2, 3) catalysts and surfactants. Outstanding results (60–96 % degradation efficiencies) were achieved for most of the tested substrates. And the POM micellar catalysts have an excellent stability and can be used as heterogeneous catalysts for about six times.
