Abstract
Vinyl acetate monomer (VAM), an important chemical intermediate in industry, is produced by the well-established commercial process of acetoxylation of ethylene with Pd-Au/SiO2 and a KOAc promoter. No paper has since decades defined the true effects of Au and KOAc, despite numerous attempts to clarify them. The role of subsurface carbon as a catalyst booster for enhanced catalytic performance in VAM synthesis was found by us for the first time. X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption fine structure studies revealed that carbon atoms spontaneously doped into the Pd-Au alloy lattice while maintaining the alloy's size, metallic state, and alloy composition. Additionally, during the process, the KOAc addition dramatically raised the equilibrium carbide fraction. Because of the high carbide fraction, KOAc/Pd0.8Au0.2/SiO2 had a 5.6-fold higher formation rate (89.0% selectivity) than Pd0.8Au0.2/SiO2 (69.2% selectivity) due to high carbide fraction. Surprisingly, kinetic and theoretical analyses showed that the coupling of acetate and ethylene, which is a rate-determining step, is effectively promoted by the synergistic contributions of Au (electronic/geometric effects) and interstitial carbon (electronic effect). Additionally, the synergy inhibits ethylene dehydrogenation, which ultimately slows the formation of CO2. The contentious debates about the roles of Au and KOAc in the acetoxylation of ethylene have been resolved thanks to experimental and theoretical insights into the roles of Pd-Au formation, Au/Pd ratio, and interstitial carbon atoms. These insights also open the door for the logical design of catalysts with desirable catalytic performance.

Abstract
In this study, a series of activated carbon-based supports with different oxygen-containing groups (OCGs) proportions were obtained via thermal treatment in an ozone flow. Semiquantitative analyses indicated that the performance of the catalyst attained a maximum after 30 min of treatment with ozone flow, and had a positive correlation with the content ratios of carboxyl and hydroxyl groups. Further, temperature-programmed desorption analysis demonstrated that the high performance (63% acetic acid conversion) of the prepared catalyst for the acetoxylation of acetylene could be ascribed to the reduced strength of increased capacity of acetylene adsorption. Density functional theory proved that the additional –COOH in the dicarboxylic catalytic system could be employed as a support for the active sites, and enhancing C2H2 adsorption strength in the rate-limiting step in the actual experimental process effectively accelerated the reaction rate. Thus, the OCGs on the surface of activated carbon play a crucial role in the catalytic performance of the acetylene acetoxylation catalyst.

Abstract
Formic acid (FA) can easily be decomposed, affording molecular hydrogen through a controllable catalytic process, thus attaining great importance as a convenient hydrogen carrier for hydrogen energetics. Supported gold nanoparticles are considered to be among the most promising catalysts for such applications. However, questions remain regarding the influence of the catalyst support on the reaction selectivity. In this study, we have examined the catalytic activity of typical gold catalysts, such as Au/TiO2, Au/SiO2, and Au/Al2O3 in decomposition of FA, and then compared it with the catalytic activity of corresponding supports. The performance of each catalyst and support was evaluated using a gas-flow packed-bed reactor. It is shown that the target reaction, FA → H2 + CO2, is provided by the presence of gold nanoparticles, whereas the concurrent, undesirable pathway, such as FA → H2O + CO, results exclusively from the acid-base behavior of supports.

Abstract
Ionic liquid containing active ingredient Zn(CH3COO)2was loaded in mesoporous silica gel to form supported ionic liquids catalyst (SILC) which was used to synthesize vinyl acetate monomer (VAM). SILC was characterized by1HNMR, FT-IR, TGA, BET, and N2adsorption/desorption and the acetylene method was used to evaluate SILC catalytic activity and stability in fixed reactor. The result shows that 1-allyl-3-acetic ether imidazole acetate ionic liquid is successfully fixed within mesoporous channel of silica gel. The average thickness of ionic liquid catalyst layer is about 1.05 nm. When the catalytic temperature is 195°C, the acetic acid (HAc) conversion is 10.9% with 1.1 g vinyl acetate yield and 98% vinyl acetate (VAc) selectivity. The HAc conversion is increased by rise of catalytic temperature and molar ratio of C2H2 : HAc and decreased by mass space velocity (WHSV). The catalyst activity is not significantly reduced within 7 days and VAc selectivity has a slight decrease.

Abstract
5A zeolite supported Gold-Palladium (Au-Pd) bimetallic were prepared and used in vapor phase oxidation of ethylene to synthetize vinyl acetate (VA). The chemical composition of Au-Pd/5A zeolite catalyst was analyzed by a combination of atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). The structure of Au-Pd/5A zeolite catalyst was characterized by a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The catalytic activity of the Au-Pd/5A zeolite catalyst under laboratory conditions were investigated in vinyl acetate synthesis by a kind of the fixed bed reaction device. The AAS testing showed that Au and Pd supported rate were increased up to the optimum value 91.22% and 93.91% respectively at the ratio of Au/Pd=0.87. The SEM analysis results indicated that Au-Pd alloy particles of 5A zeolite catalyst can grown up and reunited obviously through before and after reaction. The XRD analysis results showed that diffraction peak of Pd (111), Pd (200), Au (111) and Au (200) became sharp gradually with the extension of reaction time, crystalline phase composition and grain size of catalyst became bigger gradually. The results about catalytic activity of the Au-Pd/5A zeolite catalyst shown that with the increasing of the Au/Pd ratio, the space-time yield and selectivity have a best value respectively; when the ratio of Au/Pd=0.87, the space-time yield were 702g/(Lh) and the selectivity were 92.8% at the ratio of Au/Pd =1.13.
