Abstract
The selective oxidation of methane to methanol, using H2O2 generated in situ from H2 and O2 has been investigated using bimetallic gold-palladium catalysts, prepared via an industrially relevant wet co-impregnation protocol on a range of zeolite and metal oxide supports. The choice of catalyst support was found to drastically influence catalyst performance, through control of both nanoparticle dispersion and Pd speciation. Notably in the case of those formulations prepared on metal oxides a direct correlation between catalytic performance towards H2O2 synthesis and methane valorisation exists, whereas in the case of the zeolitic-based analogues, no clear correlation could be drawn between activity towards individual reaction pathways.
