Abstract: | The process of ozonation of glyoxal in aqueous solution has been studied by following its chemical and kinetic evolution. Results show that the oxidative process leads to formation of carboxylic functions and carbon dioxide according to a constant selectivity ratio at varying conversion degree.. Comparison between the oxygen amounts of reaction products and the corresponding ozone consumptions reveals that molecular oxygen takes part in the reaction process. System behavior is explained on the basis of radical reaction mechanism. |
