A Novel Study of Upgrading Catalytic Reforming Unit by Improving Catalyst Regeneration Process to Enhance Aromatic Compounds, Hydrogen Production, and Hydrogen Purity
Catalytic reforming is a chemical process utilized in petroleum refineries to convert naphtha, typically having low octane ratings, into high octane liquid products, called reformates, which are components of high octane gasoline. In this study, a mathematical model was developed for simulation of semi-regenerative catalytic reforming unit and the result of the proposed model was compared with ...
متن کاملA novel reforming method for hydrogen production from biomass steam gasification.
In this work, an experimental study of biomass gasification in different operation conditions has been carried out in an updraft gasifier combined with a porous ceramic reformer. The effects of gasifier temperature, steam to biomass ratio (S/B), and reforming temperature on the gas characteristic parameters were investigated with and without porous ceramic filled in reformer. The results indica...
متن کاملHydrogen production by steam reforming of dimethyle ether over Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 and H-ZSM-5 catalysts: An experimental and modeling study
Hydrogen was produced by steam reforming of dimethyl ether (DME) using a physical mixture of commercial HZSM-5 zeolite (for DME hydrolyzing) and Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 (for methanol steam reforming) as a catalyst in a fixed bed reactor. The experiments were performed at atmospheric pressure and in a temperature range from 270 to 310 °C. The effects of feed temperature and gas hourly space velocity (GHSV)...
متن کاملA CFD Simulation of Hydrogen Production in Microreactors
In this study, the modeling of hydrogen production process in microreactors by methanol-steam reforming reaction is investigated. The catalytic reaction of methanol-steam reforming producing hydrogen is simulated considering a 3D geometry for the microreactor. To calculate diffusion among species, mixture average correlations are compared to Stephan-Maxwell equations. The reactions occurring in...
متن کاملThe molecules of forgetfulness.
2. Productivity at this level means that the production costs of H 2 (expressed as the cost in US dollars per joule of calorific value contained in the molecule) are two to three times higher than for natural gas 4,5. However, taking into account the transportation and distribution costs of natural gas, and how pure you want the H 2 to be, the comparative cost of H 2 production can vary. Biomas...
