Catalytic oxidation are processes that oxidize compounds using catalysts. Common applications involve oxidation of organic compounds by the oxygen in air. Such processes are conducted on a large scale for the remediation of pollutants, production of valuable chemicals, and the production of energy.〔Gerhard Franz, Roger A. Sheldon "Oxidation" in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, 2000 〕 An illustrative catalytic oxidation is the conversion of methanol to the more valuable compound formaldehyde using oxygen in air: :2 CH3OH + O2 → 2CH2O + 2 H2O This conversion is very slow in the absence of catalysts. Typical oxidation catalysts are metal oxides and metal carboxylates. ==Examples== Industrially important examples include both inorganic and organic substrates. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「catalytic oxidation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
