Heterogeneous catalysis is the basis of most large-scale industrial chemical processes. The relevance of glucose oxidation by catalytic methods is driven by several key factors that relate to the production of valuable chemicals, the use of renewable raw materials, and environmental sustainability. Heterogeneous catalytic oxidation of glucose offers several advantages over traditional enzymatic methods, although enzymatic methods also have their own merits. Heterogeneous catalysts are generally more stable than enzymes. They are less sensitive to changes in temperature, pH, and the presence of inhibitors. Heterogeneous catalysts can be easily separated from the reaction mixture and regenerated for reuse. This reduces the cost of the process and the amount of waste generated. The purpose of this work is to investigate the features of the catalytic oxidation of glucose, analyze the reaction mechanisms, and evaluate the impact of various factors on the efficiency of the process. This paper presents the results of varying the conditions of glucose oxidation using a 3%Pt/Al2O3 catalyst to achieve optimal selectivity and conversion, 77,63 and 72,71 %, respectively.
