Description In the present study the kinetics of liquid phase oxidation of light thiols using reformulated cobalt phthalocyanine based catalyst has been investigated in a semi batch bubble column reactor. 1-Butanethiol is chosen to represent thiols in lighter range of petroleum fractions like liquefied petroleum gas and light straight run naphtha. The study has shown that rate of catalytic oxidation of 1-butanethiol is linear at lower concentrations and of nonlinear nature at higher concentrations. A mechanism based rate expression has been obtained to explain this behavior and its parameters are estimated. The derived rate law is similar to Michaelis-Menten rate equation.
