Hydrogen Production by Methanol Steam Reforming Using Microreactor

Hydrogen Production by Methanol Steam Reforming on Copper Boosted by Zinc–Assisted Water Activation**

For use of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) in mobile power applications, an efficient source of COdepleted hydrogen is needed. To avoid technical and safety problems of hydrogen handling, storage, and transport, methanol can be used as practical and abundant energy carrier for on-board H2 generation, as it has the advantage of a high energy density. Hydrogen generation from meth...

Parametric Study of Hydrogen Production from Ethanol Steam Reforming in a Membrane Microreactor

Microreactors are miniaturized chemical reaction systems, which contain reaction channels with characteristic dimensions in the range of 10-500 μm. One possible application for microreactors is the conversion of ethanol to hydrogen used in fuel cells to generate electricity. In this paper a rigorous isothermal, steady-state two-dimensional model was developed to simulate the behavior of a membr...

Sustainable Hydrogen Production by Catalytic Bio-Ethanol Steam Reforming

Production of hydrogen by unmixed steam reforming of methane

Hydrogen production by sorption-enhanced steam reforming of glycerol.

Catalytic steam reforming of glycerol for H(2) production has been evaluated experimentally in a continuous flow fixed-bed reactor. The experiments were carried out under atmospheric pressure within a temperature range of 400-700 degrees C. A commercial Ni-based catalyst and a dolomite sorbent were used for the steam reforming reactions and in situ CO(2) removal. The product gases were measured...
