10.1 INTRODUCTION
Conventional industrial synthesis methods, i.e., utilization of homogeneous cata-
lysts, stoichiometric oxidants, strong acids and bases as well as metal salts and
batch operations are nowadays undergoing a transition toward the use of solid
catalysts and continuous processes. The changes are needed to allow sustainable
product quality and diminish the so-called E factor (the ratio of waste to product),
which is too high for ne chemicals [1], not being in ...
