LEHIGH VALLEY, Pa., May 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Air Products (NYSE: APD) will highlight its full range of hydrogen plant support services, as well as fast, temporary hydrogen and nitrogen supply, for the refining and petrochemical industry at the 2017 American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) Reliability & Maintenance Conference and Exhibition in New Orleans from May 23-26.

Air Products' Hydrogen Services Business, launched last year in response to increasing customer demand, is the formal offering for something the company has been doing for decades—employing its operational excellence to help customers improve the reliability and productivity of their own hydrogen plants. Air Products' Hydrogen Services Business can help customers solve a wide variety of operational challenges, including producing more or less hydrogen from steam methane reformers, planning SMR turnarounds, solving mechanical integrity issues, instituting feedstock changes, optimizing pressure swing adsorbers (PSAs), and improving energy efficiency.

AFPM attendees are invited to stop by Air Products' booth 274 in Hall E to speak with one of the company's industry specialists about the challenges they face in their day-to-day operations. Air Products is the world's leading hydrogen supplier, producing three billion standard cubic feet per day of hydrogen and operating the world's largest hydrogen distribution network. With its extensive experience operating over 100 hydrogen plants around the globe, Air Products can help customers solve a wide range of issues within their own hydrogen plants.

The company can also provide a safe, fast and reliable temporary supply of hydrogen or nitrogen through Air Products' Express (APEX) Services. APEX is ideal for emergency/spot gas supply needs during start-ups, peak demand periods, planned or unplanned maintenance activities, and plant or pipeline turnarounds.
