The influence of the following factors have been addressed in this study: (a) Br concentration (in the reaction medium or incorporated in the catalyst); (b) reaction conditions (viz. reaction time, temperature); (c) concentrations of reducing agent and phosphoric acid in the reaction medium. Decomposition of N2H4 (from NH4-H2SO4) and its reaction with H2O2 under similar reaction conditions (in the absence of O-2) have also been studied. H2O2, which is an intermediate product of the O-2 reduction, is involved in further consecutive reactions. It can be converted to water via its decomposition and/or reaction with the unconverted NZH(4). In the presence of Br promoter, the later (reaction with unconverted N2H4) is more dominant. Both the consecutive reactions are drastically retarded in the presence of protons and Br promoter. A plausible reaction mechanism has been proposed for illustrating the role of the protons and Br promoter in the selective formation of H2O2 in the O-2 reduction process. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V.

H2SO4] in a neutral aqueous medium using a reusable heterogeneous Pd (1.0 wt%)/Al2O3 catalyst, even at low temperature (10 degrees C), with the formation of harmless by-products (viz. N-2 and water). The presence of KCl or KBr in the medium has beneficial effect. The H2O2 generation is strongly influenced by the pH of medium, reaction period and temperature; best results are obtained at the optimum pH and reaction medium. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V.

Hydrogen peroxide in high yields with harmless by-products (viz. water and nitrogen) can be generated in situ by the reduction Of O-2 by hydroxylammonium sulfate (or chloride) or hydroxylamine using the supported gold catalysts particularly Au/Gd2O3, Au/La2O3 and Au/MgO, in aqueous (water) or non-aqueous (viz. methanol) medium at close to ambient conditions. The reduction of O-2 by hydroxylammonium salt to H2O2, however, requires preneutralization of the salt by alkali; in the absence of the neutralization, only water is formed in the reaction.
