Description The catalytic activity of activated carbon-based catalysts containing up to 25% of zinc acetate was investigated by studying the reaction of acetic acid and acetylene to give vinyl acetate. The physicochemical properties of the catalysts are given. A differential reactor operating at atmospheric pressure between 155 and 200°C was used to obtain the reaction rate for different partial pressure combinations of the reaction components. Hougen and Watson types of rate equations derived from the Langmuir- Hinshelwood mechanism were examined by using non-linear estimation. A statistically best rate expression was determined from the experimental data.
