Hydrogen Peroxide Adsorbents

The anthraquinone process is considered to be the major route for production of hydrogen peroxide worldwide. One significant step in the anthraquinone process is the regeneration of the working solution.

Activated alumina, used in the hydrogen peroxide process for this regeneration, has two main roles: it is used as a catalyst for de-hydrogenation and de-epoxidation reactions, and used to remove the degradation products obtained from the working solution.
