Are hydrocracking and catalytic hydrogenation the same thing?
It can be understood literally that these two processes are different.
Catalytic hydrogenation is a hydrogenation reaction in which unsaturated olefins, aromatics, and similar substances react with hydrogen; hydrocracking, on the other hand, involves both hydrogenation and cracking reactions
:Lol isn’t a manufacturing process; you’ll find out if you look it up
No, catalytic hydrogenation is a refining process used for the saturation of olefins, as well as for desulfurization and denitration. Hydrocracking builds on this by including cracking reactions as well.
