Key Points

The aim is to explore the oxidation of methane to formic acid using Au–Fe-NaZSM-5 and H2O2.
Utilized Au–Fe–NaZSM-5 catalyst for oxidation reactions
Performed experiments under ambient pressure
Tested both batch and flow conditions for efficiency
Achieved high activity and selectivity for producing formic acid
Lowered C–H activation barrier due to Au–Fe synergy

Abstract

Au–Fe–NaZSM-5 enables one-step oxidation of methane to formic acid using H 2 O 2 , where Au–Fe synergy lowers the C–H activation barrier, resulting in high activity and selectivity under mild batch and flow conditions.
