The success-fulness of intensification oxidation of Paraffin depends on the creations for mass and heat transfer and for chain oxidation reaction (chiefly for the induction of the reaction). The effective measures for intensifying the process are indicated. To improve the conditions for induction of chain oxidation reaction (including the addition of catalysts and thermal impulsion) greatly intensifies the oxidation process. Besides

foam method

a new technique in chemical industry

is adopted in the whole process. Conditions for this heterogeneous chain reaction (and at the sametime

exothermic) are recommended

and this makes the foam method to play a particular role in oxidation industry. Circulating foam oxidation method at higher temperature is subsequently suggested

which promotes the volume intensity of the reactor for oxidation process

and further

increases the reaction rate and improves the oxidation products both in quantity and in quality. Jt is confirmed that continuous circulating foam oxidation is effective for obtaining fatty acids

and that alcohols are obtained simultaneously.
