One of the industrial method for the production of hydrogen is the steam reforming process while oxygen is air separation.
<h3>Industrial method of hydrogen preparation </h3>
One of the industrial method for the production of hydrogen is the steam reforming process also known catalytic steam–hydrocarbon process.
In catalytic steam–hydrocarbon process, gaseous or vaporized hydrocarbons are treated with steam at high pressure over a nickel catalyst at 650°–950° C to produce carbon oxides and hydrogen.
<h3>Industrial method of oxygen preparation </h3>
One of the industrial method of oxygen production is the separation of air using either a cryogenic distillation process or a vacuum swing adsorption process.
