Abstract
Abstract The anodic oxidation of methanol in a circulating flow reactor has been studied to determine experimental conditions required for a continuous fluidized bed reactor. The effects of applied current, initial alcohol concentration, and circulating flow rate on methanol conversion have been investigated. The rate of methanol conversion increased with increasing applied current and decreased as initial alcohol concentration is increased. A relationship between methanol conversion and a combined effect of applied current and initial alcohol concentration has been derived. The kinetics of the reaction has been found to be of a second order. Values of up to 85% methanol conversion have been achieved.
