Abstract
⺠Gold-sol immobilization leads to the most efficient Au/MWCNT catalyst for glycerol oxidation. ⺠Au/MWCNT catalysts favor the oxidation toward dihydroxyacetone (DIHA). ⺠High DIHA selectivities (about 60%) are related with the wide mesopores of MWCNTs. ⺠Acidification of the mixture obtained after reaction allows DIHA stabilization.
