Question

what is the meaning of hydrogenation of oil​

Answer 1

Hydrogenation is a process that uses hydrogen gas to change a liquid vegetable oil into a hard spread / margarine. This process stabilizes the oil and prevents spoilage from oxidation. Hydrogenation reactions are sensitive to a variety of factors that can negatively impact batch time, catalyst life, production rate, and selectivity. In addition to being the world’s leading hydrogen supplier, Air Products can help optimize your hydrogenation reaction and reduce costs through selection of the best supply mode and evaluation and optimization of reaction kinetics or thermodynamics.

Answer 2

The process by which oil is converted into solid fats by the addition of hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst such as nickel is called hydrogenation of oil
