Hydrogen Applications and Technologies

Hydrogen has wide applications across many industries. This book covers the utilization of hydrogen in petrochemical products, vehicles and power generation systems, and in refinery hydrotreating, metallurgy, welding, annealing, and heat-treating of metals.

Hydrogen has wide applications across many industries, including petroleum refineries, hydrotreating processes, and metallurgy applications. In addition, a number of valuable chemicals, such as ammonia, alcohols, and acids, are manufactured directly or indirectly with hydrogen. Hydrogen Applications and Technologies covers the utilization of hydrogen in petrochemical products, vehicles, and power generation systems, as well as in refinery hydrotreating, metallurgy, welding, annealing, and the heat-treating of metals.
