Book excerpt: Investigates the oxidation properties of titanium silicalite-1 (TS-1) catalyst for the oxidation of alcohols such as 2-propanol, 1-propanol, ethanol and methanol at concentration 5 vo1%. In addition the concentration of oxygen in the feed gas from 0-21 vo1% is studied to determine the effect of oxygen concentration on the conversion of alcohols and product selectivities. The catalytic test reaction was carried out with 0.1 gram of catalyst packed in a microreactor at temperature ranging from 100 to 500 C and atmospheric pressure. The research found that the TS-1 can play role as an effective catalyst for alcohol oxidation reactions in gas phase and the oxidation property of the TS-1 catalyst depends on reactant. For 1-propanol and 2-propanol, the oxidation rate is much higher than the dehydration rate. For ethanol, the oxidation rate is quite comparative to the dehydration rate. The oxidation reation, however, dominates the conversion of ethanol in low reaction temperature region (200-400 C). For methanol, the combustion reaction dominates the conversion.
