A method of performing oxidation on an injectable feedstock comprising a furan substrate to be oxidized and a catalytically effective combination of cobalt, manganese and bromide components to catalyze the oxidation of the furan substrate, the method comprising: Through the selection of the operating pressure in the reactor vessel and the control of the operating pressure in the reactor vessel, the exothermic temperature rise due to the reaction is reduced A method is provided that includes a step of managing. The crude dehydration product from fructose, glucose, or both dehydration, including 5-hydroxymethyl furfural, is directly oxidized by this method to produce 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid in surprisingly increased yield can do. |
