Optimization of Syngas Production Systems Subject to Almost Net-Zero CO2 Emissions
نویسنده
چکیده
This work describes two different configurations of syngas production processes using a combination of steam methane reforming (SMR) and dry reforming of methane (DRM). The ideal SMR+DRM process ensures the maximum product yield, the heat-integrated SMR+DRM process fulfills the maximum heat recovery, and the stand-alone SMR+DRM process effectively suppress net CO2 emissions. Through kinetic modeling and specific optimization algorithms, the syngas production systems subject to almost net-zero CO2 emissions are successfully verified by simulations in Aspen Plus environment.
