All types of edible oils remain in the liquid state at room temperature. Vegetable oils can be solidified to some extent by passing hydrogen gas through them. This process is technically termed hydrogenation, and it needs a lot of hydrogen to get the required result. Hydrogenated oil has numerous uses in the production of biscuits, cookies, and cakes, apart from being used as tasty spreads. MVS Engineering Pvt. Ltd provides a hydrogen gas plant that produces pure hydrogen for edible oils. Bipolar technology or Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) technology can be applied for conducting water electrolysis in a hydrogen generator.
Benefits of installing a hydrogen-generating plant for edible oil productions
A hydrogen plant is very useful for owners of edible oil manufacturing companies. Since they continuously need hydrogen for producing hydrogenated oils, the onsite hydrogen generator of MVS Engineering is the best option for them. The following are the benefits of installing a hydrogen plant at the production site.
Simple installing mechanism – MVS Engineering has designed a hydrogen generator with easy installation features. Thus, the device can be installed and ready for use by the client within a week only after it is ordered. The generator using bipolar technology can be skid mounted while a panel is needed for installing the generator using PEM technology.
Automated operative system – A hydrogen gas plant is fully automatic and does not need manpower to drive its production. PLC or Programmable Logic Controller system is applied for directing this automated system, which is customized to provide maximum output. The generated hydrogen gas can be stored in a tank or directly sent to the production chambers. A booster compressor may be used to deliver hydrogen at a high pressure of up to 700 bar(g).
Cost-effective production method – Water electrolysis is a simple method for hydrogen production that demands the least expense. Only de-ionized water is needed as the raw material of this process, which is a relief for industry owners. Though electricity is drawn for conducting the electrolysis, the power efficiency of this device helps in minimizing that expense as well. Therefore, it is a much cheaper procedure compared to the purchase of hydrogen cylinders from the market to produce hydrogen for edible oils.
