Hydrogenation for Pharmaceuticals

Hydrogen solutions powered by technology, reliability and safety

Are you interested in achieving safer operations?

Are you looking to optimise your system’s gas-to-liquid transfer to increase productivity?

Hydrogenation involves saturating organic mixtures with hydrogen molecules, to help extend their shelf life, modify properties or conduct highly selective transformations.

Our engineers, who have many years of experience in developing and running hydrogenation processes, can help you to optimise your system’s gas-to-liquid transfer to improve its productivity and achieve safer operations.

Hydrogenation reactions are sensitive to a variety of factors that can negatively impact batch time, catalyst life, production rate, and selectivity. Air Products can enhance your hydrogenation reaction and reduce costs through selection of the best supply mode and evaluation and optimisation of the use of reaction kinetics or thermodynamics.

Air Products is the largest hydrogen supplier in the world, with an enviable delivery record. Our engineers can recommend the most efficient and cost-effective supply mode based on your volume, pressure, purity level, flow rate and operating pattern.
