Blanco-Brieva, Gema published the artcileSelective decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in the epoxidation effluent of the HPPO process, Recommanded Product: 2-Methoxypropan-1-ol, the publication is Catalysis Today (2012), 187(1), 168-172, database is CAplus.
This work describes the selective H2O2 decomposition in the exit stream of the epoxidation reactor employed in the Hydrogen Peroxide-Propylene Oxide (HPPO) process. Pd/Al2O3 and Pt/Al2O3 catalysts were tested. The effects of the reaction temperature and the pH of the solution on catalyst performance were investigated. It was found that the Pt catalyst is much more active than its Pd counterpart. An increase in the temperature and the pH of the solution resulted in an increase in the H2O2 decomposition rate; however, a parallel increase of byproducts from PO was also observed Working with a Pt/Al2O3 catalyst under optimized reaction conditions (333 K, pH = 7), hydrogen peroxide can be completely decomposed at reaction times of 120 min with no byproducts produced from propylene oxide.
