An improved fixed-bed cyclic anthraquinone process for production of hydrogen peroxide wherein the improvement is using a hydrogenation catalyst comprising palladium or a mixture of palladium and platinum on a support containing alpha alumina. The preferred range of palladium is 0.1 to 3 weight percent and the preferred range of platinum, when present, is greater than 0.01 weight percent (based on the total weight of the catalyst). The preferred catalyst support contains greater than 5 percent alpha alumina.

In a cyclic process employing a fixed-bed reactor for the production of hydrogen peroxide involving hydrogenating a working solution comprising quinones dissolved in solvents in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, oxidizing the hydrogenated working solution, separating the hydrogen peroxide from the oxidized working solution and then recycling the working solution for further hydrogenation, the improvement comprising the use of a catalyst comprising palladium deposited on a catalyst support which contains alpha alumina, wherein the alpha alumina content is about 5 to 99 percent of the support and the surface area by BET measurement of the supported catalyst is from about 108 to 5 m2/g.
