Industrial Preparation
Hydrogen bromide (along with hydrobromic acid) is produced on a much smaller scale than the corresponding chlorides. In the primary industrial preparation, hydrogen and bromine are combined at temperatures between 200-400 °C. The reaction is typically catalyzed by platinum or asbestos.

Famous quotes containing the words industrial and/or preparation:
“The Enormous Room seems to me to be the book that has nearest approached the mood of reckless adventure in which men will reach the white heat of imagination needed to fuse the soggy disjointed complexity of the industrial life about us into seething fluid of creation. There can be no more playing safe.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“Living each day as a preparation for the next is an exciting way to live. Looking forward to something is much more fun than looking back at something—and much more constructive. If we can prepare ourselves so that we never have to think, “Oh, if I had only known, if I had only been ready,” our lives can really be the great adventure we so passionately want them to be.”
—Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
