Acetal formation is a reversible reaction

Under what conditions, the reaction can be forced to proceed only in right (forward) direction ?

For a reversible system, when the pressure of the reacting system in equilibrium is decreased then the system shifts to the side of the reaction with a fewer number of gas molecules.

When a change is brought about in pressure, temperature or concentration of a reversible reation which has attained equilibrium, the equilibria tries to shift in such a direction which would neutralize the effect of change. This is known as
