Summary:Pt/CeO2-ZrO2-Bi2O3-PbO/SBA-16 (SBA-16: Santa Barbara Amorphous No. 16) catalysts were synthesized to produce hydroxypyruvic acid by glycerol oxidation. In the catalysts, the introduction of PbO into CeO2-ZrO2-Bi2O3 improved the oxygen release and storage abilities owing to the synergistic redox reaction of Pb2+/4+ and Ce3+/4+, which facilitated the oxidation ability of Pt. In addition, the oxidation of the secondary OH group in glycerol might be accelerated by the geometric effects of glycerol, Pt, and Bi3+ or Pb2+/4+. Furthermore, the moderate reaction conditions such as room temperature and open-air atmosphere enabled the suppression of further oxidation of hydroxypyruvic acid. The highest catalytic activity was obtained for 7 wt% Pt/16 wt% Ce0.60Zr0.15Bi0.20Pb0.05O2−δ/SBA-16, which provided a hydroxypyruvic acid yield maximum of 24.6%, after the reaction for 6 h at 30 °C in atmospheric air.
