Question

what is hydrogenation give us uses in all sectors

Answer 1

Hydrogenation reactions are extensively used to create commercial goods.Hydrogenation is used in the food industry to make a large variety of manufactured goods, like spreads and shortenings, from liquid oils. This process also increases the chemical stability of products and yields semi-solid products like margarine.

Answer 2

Hi ,

Hydrogenation – meaning, to treat with hydrogen – is a chemical reaction between molecular hydrogen and another compound or element, usually in the presence of a catalyst such as nickel, palladium or platinum. The process is commonly employed to reduce or saturate organic compounds. 

Nearly all organic compoundscontaining multiple bonds connecting two atoms can react with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst. The hydrogenation of organic compounds (through addition and hydrogenolysis) is a reaction of great industrial importance. The addition of hydrogen is used in the production of edible fats from liquid oils. In the petroleumindustry, numerous processes involved in the manufacture of gasoline and petrochemical products are based on the destructive hydrogenation ofhydrocarbons. In the late 20th century the production of liquid fuels by hydrogenation of coal has become an attractive alternative to the extraction of petroleum. The industrial importance of the hydrogenation process dates from 1897, when the French chemist Paul Sabatier discovered that the introduction of a trace of nickel as a catalyst facilitated the addition of hydrogen to molecules of carbon compounds.

The catalysts most commonly used for hydrogenation reactions are the metals nickel, platinum, and palladium and their oxides. For high-pressure hydrogenations, copper chromite and nickel supported on kieselguhr (loose or porous diatomite) are extensively used.
