Abstract
A novel, improved process and catalyst are provided for the catalytic hydrodechlorination of a chlorinated alkane to its corresponding less-chlorinated and preferably non-chlorinated alkane, for example the hydrodechlorination of 1,2-dichloropropane to propane, the catalyst comprising a mixture of active Group VIII hydrogenating metals in elemental or compound form on a support.
