Mesoporous Metallic Oxides in the Catalytic Wet Air Oxidation (CWAO) of Nitrogen-Containing Organic Pollutants in Water

The implementation of suitable catalysts increases the applicability of the WAO process. Dispersed Mn_xO_y in mesoporous oxide supports prepared via  sol gel were shown to be active and stable in the CWAO of methylamine. The catalyst preparation influences the activity and selectivity of catalysts.
