Hydrogen in Cryogenic Engineering

Abstract

Hydrogen is now expected to have great needs as clean fuel and as energy reservation and transportion medium. In connection with this prospect, several researches in physical chemistry and chemical engineering with hydrogen are reviewed which have been done by the author's group in the Cryogenic Laboratory in Tohoku University. Recent researches on some materials concerning the hydrogen problem are also mentioned. Importance of researches and developments in cryogenic engineering with hydrogen is stressed.
