A gas cracker is any device that splits the molecules in a gas or liquid, usually by electrolysis, into atoms. The end product is usually a gas. A hydrocracker is an example of a gas cracker. In nature, molecules are split often, such as in food digestion, microbial digestion activity, and evaporation of water. A gas cracker device splits the molecule faster than nature can. In science and industry, gas crackers are used to seperate two or more elements in a molecule. For example, liquid water, or H20, is seperated into H and O gases. Pure elemental gases can be placed into seperate tanks and sold, such as a tank of hydrogen, helium, or oxygen gas.
This is not to be confused with the splitting of the atom (atomic power) or nucleus (nuclear power).
Hazarika said that the gas supply agreement between RAPL and OIL, which is considered to be the first milestone for the project, was to be concluded at the earliest.
He said that a draft agreement on supply of gas between OIL and RAPL was signed on March 14 last and the final agreement was scheduled to be signed April 14.
He said it was somewhat inexplicable why Reliance was coming out with new objections in the gas linkage on various grounds such as quantity and quality of gas at different points of time, instead of raising all the points at a time and resolve them once for all.
