Conclusion In the brief space available an attempt has been made to survey the theoretical and practical aspects of the hydrogenation of fatty oils. That the view of the field presented was necessarily abridged becomes obvious when it is considered that hydrogenation has become almost a sub‐science of its own. However, despite the large amount of developmental work which has been done on the process and the magnitude of the commercial operations carried out with it, the published literature on hydrogenation is surprisingly meager.
