The catalysts in the form of an activated carbon EuroPh supported Fe were prepared and characterized structurally and chemically by XRD, nitrogen sorption, FESEM, EDX, and ICP-AES methods. The active phase was magnetite Fe3O4. The concentration of Fe in the catalysts was equal to 0.68, 1.32, 2.64 wt%. The catalytic activity of the obtained catalysts was examined in limonene oxidation with hydrogen peroxide and tert-butyl hydroperoxide as oxidants. The studies were carried out in a batch reactor. The catalytic activity of the recovered catalysts was also tested. The research showed that all from the studied catalysts were active in the limonene oxidation. As a result of limonene oxidation the following products were mainly obtained: 1,2-epoxylimonene diol, carveol, carvone and perillyl alcohol - products with a great importance. The reused catalysts were characterized by considerably lover activity in the limonene oxidation than in the first run, especially when the oxidation was performed with t-butyl hydroperoxide.
