Smart Manufacturing: Application to an Industrial Scale Steam-methane Reformer
Manufacturing industry has witnessed a gradual transition from being a heuristic-driven labor-intensive set of processes to a sophisticated set of automation and model-driven processes where each operation unit in the production chain is automatically controlled and operated at a preset optimum regime. While incremental improvements in overall manufacturing efficiency have been steered by advan...
متن کاملCFD modeling of Plasmatron Methane Reformer
Plasmatron fuel converters have been investigated for the conversion of a wide range of fuels. This is a paper of a series of papers describing an effort to investigate experimentally and computationally plasmatron methane reformers. This paper describes the fluid dynamics modeling of the plasmatron methane reformer, with the hope of understanding air/methane mixture and mixing rates in the reg...
متن کامل2D Heat and Mass Transfer Modeling of Methane Steam Reforming for Hydrogen Production in a Compact Reformer
Compact reformers (CRs) are promising devices for efficient fuel processing. In CRs, a thin solid plate is sandwiched between two catalyst layers to enable efficient heat transfer from combustion duct to the reforming duct for fuel processing. In this study, a 2D heat and mass transfer model is developed to investigate the fundamental transport phenomenon and chemical reaction kinetics in a CR ...
متن کاملParticle Development in a Fluidized Bed Black Liquor Steam Reformer
Low-temperature gasification of black liquor is a new alternative to the conventional Tomlinson recovery boiler for recovering pulping chemicals and energy from black liquor in pulp and paper mills. This process can be carried out in a fluidized bed based on steam reforming at 600 C using indirect heat supplied via heat exchangers built into the fluid bed. As black liquor is injected into the b...
متن کاملUse of SCR in a Hydrogen Plant Integrated with a Stationary Gas Turbine - Case Study: The Port Arthur Steam-Methane Reformer
An “across-the-fence” steam-methane reforming (SMR) hydrogen plant integrated with gas-turbine technology was started up within the past three years at the Premcor refinery in Port Arthur, Texas. This plant, owned and operated by Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., is one of only a handful of SMRs containing an integrated gas turbine. The facility design typifies a growing trend among refiners to...
