Hydrogenation catalysts are indispensable inputs in different manufacturing processes, but especially in the production of fuels and important chemicals. These reaction-boosting substances are mainly used to facilitate the addition of hydrogen to unsaturated compounds, consequently causing the saturation of bonds and the formation of new products. In this post, we’ll look closely at what hydrogenation is and the roles hydrogenation catalysts play in manufacturing. What is Hydrogenation? In organic chemistry, hydrogenation is the addition of hydrogen to unsaturated hydrocarbons in the presence of a catalyst like nickel or palladium to facilitate the formation of saturated hydrocarbons. You can also define…
