Tungsten-palladium selective hydrogenation catalysts
The activity and sulfur resistance of palladium-tungsten supported catalysts having different W/Pd ratios is compared. The maximum was found for the catalyst having a W/Pd ratio 6. The existence of a Pd-WOx interface, more active and sulfur-resistant, is suggested. Regeneration of bimetallic catalysts at mild temperatures was studied.
