Prodn. of tetrahydrofuran (THF) and 1, 4-butanediol (BDO), contg. a major portion of BDO, comprises catalytic hydrogenation of an hydrogenatable precursor in contact with an H2-contg. gas and a carbon-supported Pd, Ag and Re-contg. hydrogenation catalyst prepd. by : i) impregnating the C support with a source of Pd, Ag and Re, in one or more steps, using at least one soln. of the metal sources; ii) drying the impregnated support to remove solvent after each impregnation step; iii) heating the impregnated support at 100-350 deg.C under reducing conditions. |
