The solubility of hydrogen in a white mineral oil has been measured at pressures of 1.48 to 10.44 MPa at each of four temperatures (573, 603, 623, 643 K), in conjunction with a study of hydrodesulphurization in a trickle‐bed reactor. The solubility varies from a hydrogen mole fraction of 0.056 at the lowest [ T, P ] to 0.262 at the highest. The solubility increases with increasing pressure and temperature. It can be represented by an equation suggested by using Krichevsky‐Ilinskaya and van't Hoff expressions.
