  2. Fat hydrogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_hydrogenation

    Fat hydrogenation is the process of combining unsaturated fat with hydrogen in order to partially or completely convert it into saturated fat. Typically this hydrogenation is done with liquid vegetable oils resulting in solid or semi-solid fats .

  3. Hydrogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogenation

    Hydrogenation is a chemical reaction between molecular hydrogen (H 2) and another compound or element, usually in the presence of a catalyst such as nickel, palladium or platinum. The process is commonly employed to reduce or saturate organic compounds. Hydrogenation typically constitutes the addition of pairs of hydrogen atoms to a molecule ...

  4. Bergius process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergius_process

    The middle oil is hydrogenated in order to get more gasoline and the heavy oil is mixed with the coal again and the process restarts. In this way, heavy oil and middle oil fractions are also reused in this process. The most recent evolution of Bergius' work is the 2-stage hydroliquefaction plant at Wilsonville AL which operated during 1981-85 ...

  5. Chemical process of decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_process_of...

    The process of hydrogenation transforms unsaturated bonds (double and triple bonds) into single bonds. This essentially increases the amounts of saturated fatty acids, while decreasing the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids. Therefore, hydrogenation of oleic and palmitoleic acids, for example, will yield stearic, and palmitic acids ...

  6. Composition of the human body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_of_the_human_body

    Pie charts of typical human body composition by percent of mass, and by percent of atomic composition (atomic percent) Body composition may be analyzed in various ways. This can be done in terms of the chemical elements present, or by molecular structure e.g., water , protein , fats (or lipids ), hydroxyapatite (in bones), carbohydrates (such ...

  7. Liquid organic hydrogen carrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_organic_hydrogen...

    To absorb hydrogen, the dehydrated form of LOHC (an unsaturated, mostly aromatic compound) reacts with the hydrogen in a hydrogenation reaction. The hydrogenation is an exothermic reaction and is carried out at elevated pressures (approx. 30-50 bar) and temperatures of approx. 150-200°C in the presence of a catalyst.

  8. Deamination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deamination

    Deamination is the removal of an amino group from a molecule. [1] Enzymes that catalyse this reaction are called deaminases.. In the human body, deamination takes place primarily in the liver; however, it can also occur in the kidney.

  9. Trans fat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans_fat

    The hydrogenation process was widely adopted by the food industry in the early 1900s; first for the production of margarine, a replacement for butter and shortening, [37] and eventually for various other fats used in snack food, packaged baked goods, and deep fried products. [17] Full hydrogenation of a fat or oil produces a fully saturated fat.
