Mixtures of hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO), known as syngas, are fed to processes for large scale production of methanol and various so-called oxo products like higher alcohols and aldehydes.
Among other applications is e. g. the elimination of oxygen from boiler feed water.
Main processes for hydrogen production:
-
Steam reforming of methane or other hydrocarbons
-
Gasification of organic feedstock to syngas (H2/CO)
-
Recovery from gaseous waste streams
-
Electrolysis of NaCl.
At Linde, we provide a number of service options for hydrogen pipeline supply. Such available options include; process consulting, plant financing, plant erection and startup, plant operation (maintenance and repair), emergency supply arrangements and permanent process adaptation to customer demand.
