Using extractive-pyrolytic method fine-disperse Pt containing composites were synthesized and tested in catalytic glycerol oxidation. Catalyst activity and selectivity to glycolic acid was determined oxidizing glycerol in mild conditions. It was concluded that only iron containing platinum catalysts were selective to glycolic acid. Selectivity to glycolic acid reached 53-60% with glycerol conversion 12-56%.
