Abstract:
Nanogold catalysis has been extensively studied since the pioneer work of Haruta that CO oxidation can take place at a temperature as low as -77¡æ over Au nanoparticles deposited on metal-oxide. In past decades, especially in recent 10 years, gold catalysis have become a vital new force in the field of green chemistry due to the global explosive growth of R & D activities in pollution control, fine chemical synthesis and energy etc. From the simple reactions of carbon monoxide oxidation and epoxidation of propylene, the studied reaction systems have been extended to hydrogenation, carbonylation, condensation and other kinds of reactions in organic synthesis. The research category has expanded from heterogeneous catalysis to homogeneous catalysis and photocatalysis. As a promising catalyst system, the industrialization of Au catalysts in large scale is highly expected and many efforts have been done recently. Some Au catalysts have been or being available in the market. In the presentation, an overview on the commercialization situation of gold catalysts at home and aboard including our work at Shandong Applied Research Centre of Gold Nanotechnology (Au-SADRC) will be introduced.
