The current paper presents the results of the investigation on oxidation process of acetic and oleic acids with hydrogen peroxide, carried out in an aqueous medium under supercritical fluid conditions (SCWO), applying batchoperated and continuously-operated experimental plants. The behavior of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and pH of the oxidized samples is described.
