Selective Oxidation of Glycerol to Lactic Acid Catalyzed by CuO/Activated Carbon and Reaction Kinetics

, which is higher than that using single CuO as the catalyst. This indicates that CuO/AC is more temperature-sensitive than CuO and can probably achieve a higher lactic acid yield at high temperatures. At the same time, it is indicated that CuO supported on activated carbon can enhance the catalytic activity of CuO effectively.
