Catalytic properties of Pd/Al2O3 and Pd-Ga/Al2O3 in selective liquid-phase hydrogenation of acetylene in a flow under pressure and the effect exerted on them by introduction of CO into the feed were studied. The presence of CO in the reaction mixture ensures the reaction with the predominant formation of ethylene. Introduction of gallium into the catalyst formulation prevents the catalyst deactivation. Simultaneous action of these factors allows reaching high yield of the target product in combination with long operation life of the catalyst.
