Abstract
The term “green catalyst” has no single definition. Currently, it is most commonly associated with catalysts that are recoverable or prepared from readily available starting materials. A truer definition, although circular, is that a green oxidation catalyst, or any catalyst for that matter, is one that conforms to green chemistry and green engineering principles. Creating a green oxidation catalyst a priori is a complex task because every aspect of the catalyst needs examination and to be of practical value it must provide a cost benefit to the end-user. Here, some general guidelines for what a green oxidation catalyst might be are presented.

- Catalyst:
-
A substance that initiates or increases the rate of a chemical reaction by reducing the activation energy for the reaction without itself undergoing any permanent chemical change.
- Commodity chemicals:
-
Chemicals that are produced on the millions of tons per year scale that are used as building blocks for more sophisticated chemicals.
- Green chemistry:
-
The design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances.
- Oxidation:
-
The loss of electrons or the increase in oxidation state of a molecule, atom, or ion.
- Self-oxidation:
-
A situation where the active oxidation catalyst oxidizes itself, usually resulting in degradation and loss of activity.
- Speciality chemicals:
-
Chemicals that are produced on a relatively small scale often for a particular application.
