Towards H2-rich gas production from unmixed steam reforming of methane: Thermodynamic modeling

Production of hydrogen by unmixed steam reforming of methane

CFD modeling and control of a steam methane reforming reactor

This work initially focuses on developing a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of an industrialscale steam methane reforming reactor (reforming tube) used to produce hydrogen. Subsequently, we design and evaluate three different feedback control schemes to drive the area-weighted average hydrogen mole fraction measured at the reforming tube outlet ( x̄H outlet 2 ) to a desired set-point va...

From natural gas to ethylene: a study on combining oxidative coupling of methane with steam reforming

Investigation of Inert Gas Injection in Steam Reforming of Methane: Energy

Synthesis gas manufacturing by steam reforming of hydrocarbons is an important industrial process. High endothermic nature of the process makes it one of the most cost and heat intensive processes. In the present work, composite effect of different inert gases on synthesis gas yield, feed gas conversion and temperature distribution along the reactor length has been studied using a heterogeneous...

Efficient production of hydrogen from natural gas steam reforming in palladium membrane reactor

Ultra-thin, high performance composite palladium membrane, developed via a novel electroless plating method, was applied to construct a membrane reactor for methane steam reforming reaction, which was investigated under the following working conditions: temperature 723–823 K, pressure 300–900 kPa, gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) 4000–8000 mL g 1 cat h , steam-to-carbon feed ratio (S/C, mol/mol...
