Key words: acetylene hydrogenation, palladium catalyst regeneration, supercritical CO2, modifier
The results of the regeneration of a deactivated palladium catalyst of acetylene hydrogenation using the supercritical fluid extraction process at T = 130 °C, P = 250 bar are shown. The activity of the catalyst regenerated in supercritical carbon dioxide modified with acetone comparable with activity of the catalyst regenerated by the conventional method.
