Uses & Applications for Hydrogen
– Aerospace & Aircraft
Used as a power source, hydrogen gas fuels rockets and powers life-support systems and computers in space environments. It is also used for metal sintering and annealing.
- Heat Treating
– Automotive & Transportation Equipment
As a component for heat treating furnace atmosphere, hydrogen reacts with oxygen to produce a bright finish on steel parts. Additionally, it makes an excellent industrial quench gas because of its high heat transfer properties. When used as an alternate fuel, hydrogen will reduce undesirable emissions.
- Heat Treating
- Parts Manufacturing
– Energy
Our hydrogen is used to propel everything from high speed vehicles, to fuel cell powered passenger cars, buses and forklifts.
- Hydrogen for Fuel Cells
– Refining
Hydrogen is essential in the refining industry for upgrading heavy crude oils into refined fuels, and helping to meet rigid transportation fuel specifications.
- Refinery Gas Processing
– Welding & Metal Fabrication
Used to enhance plasma welding and cutting operations, hydrogen gas is commonly mixed with argon the for of welding stainless steel.
