Hydrogen production A distinction is made between "thermal partial oxidation" (TPOX) and "catalytic partial oxidation" (CPOX). The chemical reaction takes the general form: Idealized examples for heating oil and coal, assuming compositions CH and CH respectively, are as follows: The Kværner-process or Kvaerner carbon black & hydrogen process (CB&H) is a plasma reforming method, developed in the 1980s by a Norwegian company of the same name, for the production of hydrogen and carbon black from liquid hydrocarbons (CH). Of the available energy of the feed, approximately 48% is contained in the hydrogen, 40% is contained in activated carbon and 10% in superheated
Organogermanium compound carbon, compounds containing Ge=C (germenes) and Ge=Ge (digermylenes) double bonds are rare. One example is the bulky derivatives of germabenzene, an analogue of benzene. Organogermanium compound Organogermanium compounds are organometallic compounds containing a carbon to germanium or hydrogen to germanium chemical bond. Organogermanium chemistry is the corresponding chemical science. Germanium shares group 14 in the periodic table with silicon, tin and lead, and not surprisingly the chemistry of organogermanium is in between that of organosilicon compounds and organotin compounds. One reason that limited synthetic value of organogermanium compound is costs of germanium compounds. On the other hand, germanium is advocated
