Liquid Hydrogen is a fluid used in the processing of bedrock ore, and in the production of oxyhydrogen and ionic gel. It is also the main fluid used in the hydrotreater (at 1PU), where its used "desulfurize" crude oils and certain fuels, producing sour gas in the process.
Liquid hydrogen is a flammable, combustible fluid with a high fuel grade, providing 5.0 kTU or 10.0 kHE per bucket depending on use case.
