Abstract

The invention relates to a method for carrying out an oxidation reaction for producing a product by heating a reaction medium containing a reactant and oxygen or an oxygen carrier in a reactor, wherein the reaction medium is brought into contact with a solid heating medium which may be heated by electromagnetic induction, which is surrounded by the reaction medium. The heating medium is heated by electromagnetic induction using an inductor, wherein an oxidation reaction is carried out on the first reactant to give a product and the product is separated from the heating medium. The inductor preferably generates an alternating field with a frequency in the range 1 to 100 kHz, preferably in the range 10 to 80 kHz and in particular up to 50 kHz.
