Abstract

New prospects for conversion of glycerol into value-added products was explored by choosing viable reaction conditions with Lacunary phosphotungstate anchored to mesoporous (MCM-41, MCM-48) as catalysts. Both the catalysts showed high conversion for glycerol esterification as well as oxidation with higher selectivity towards di-acetyl glycerol and dihydroxyacetone products, respectively. The kinetic studies shows that both the catalysts are thermodynamically and kinetically stable, having first order dependence with no mass transfer limitation. The difference in % conversion and selectivity was correlated with the nature of supports, where the three dimensional pore network of MCM-48 resulted in better activity. Multiple use of catalyst suggested regeneration without significant loss in the activity. Probable mechanism was also demonstrated for both the reactions.
