An anthraquinone process is known as an industrial hydrogen peroxide production process. In this process, an anthraquinone compound is dissolved in an organic solvent to obtain a working solution, and in a hydrogenation step the anthraquinone compound is reduced with hydrogen in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst so as to produce an anthrahydroquinone compound. Next, in an oxidation step the anthrahydroquinone compound is converted back into the anthraquinone compound, with hydrogen peroxide being produced at the same time. The hydrogen peroxide in the working solution is separated out from the working solution by a process such as water extraction. The working solution from which the hydrogen peroxide has been extracted is returned into the hydrogenation step, whereby a cyclic process is formed.
