Opis: A new metals-polymeric composite, Metx-EPS (I), was prepared
to be used as catalyst in water or in two-phase aqueous
conditions. The metals source was an exhausted catalytic
converter that was grinded and treated with an acidic solution at room temperature. After filtration, the solution was concentrated, neutralized and added to a broth of Klebsiella oxytoca DSM 29614 to produce (I) where metals are embedded in a peculiar polysaccharide structure (EPS). The composite was easily recovered from the fermentation broth and purified. The process protocol was verified many times and was shown to be reproducible satisfactorily. The % recovery of metals, originally present in the converter, was good as determined by atomic
absorption. The morphology and the chemical state of main
metals in (I) were investigated by X-ray absorption spectroscopy
methods (XANES and EXAFS). No metallic alloy seems to
be evident. The catalytic activity and a possible synergic effect due to the presence of the different metals was valuated in the hydrogenation of some substrates, valuable precursors for theproduction of fine chemicals.
