Hydrogen is transported as compressed hydrogen in tube trailers and can then either be decanted from the trailer into storage on the customer site or for larger demands the trailer can be left on site and the customer can draw directly from the storage.
To hydrogenate edible liquid fats and oils into margarine and other semi-solid products
Chemicals
To hydrogenate non-edible oils for soap, creams, plastic and other chemical processes and for the production of bulk, intermediates and speciality chemicals
Pharmaceutical
To produce pharmaceutical intermediates
Electronics
To enhance heat transfer, used as ultra high purity (UHP) for controlled atmospheres in semiconductor manufacturing to increase productivity and protect against impurities
Energy
To enhance heat transfer for cooling high speed turbine power generators and nuclear reactors and as a fuel for the growing fuel cell energy generation market
Aerospace
As a fuel gas for spacecraft at ignition and to power spacecraft internal systems
Iron and Steel
For quenching and as a protective atmosphere for heat treatment at very high temperature such as in stainless steel manufacturing, also to support plasma welding and cutting
Oil and Gas
To remove organic sulphur from crude oil, fuel oil and gasoline to enhance its performance
