Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>The heterogeneously catalyzed epoxidation of commercially available biodiesel with aqueous H₂O₂ as an oxidant was studied over composite catalysts consisting of microporous titanium silicalite‐1 (TS‐1) as reactive and polymer‐based spherical activated carbon (PBSAC) as sorptive component. The results are compared to that of a commercial TS‐1 catalyst. The polymer‐based spherical activated carbon was applied either as a support or as an exotemplate. In the composite catalyst, the active titanium sites are utilized four times more efficiently than in the commercial TS‐1.</p> </abstract>
