Sustainable Hydrogen Production by Catalytic Bio-Ethanol Steam Reforming

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 ...

Sustainable Hydrogen from Bio-oil - Catalytic Steam Reforming of Acetic Acid as a Model Oxygenate

Introduction Hydrogen as a fuel has recently been an important issue due to developments in fuel cell technology. Hydrogen production from sustainable sources, e.g. biomass, is gaining attention for a CO2 neutral energy supply. Recent developments in flash pyrolysis technologies make it possible to convert lignocellulosic biomass efficiently to a bio-oil, which is easier for handling and transp...

Sustainable hydrogen production via reforming of bio-oil model compounds using a novel spouted bed reactor

Hydrogen produced from renewable energy sources can present significant environmental benefits as an alternative to fossil fuels or as a means for clean power generation via fuel cells. The aqueous fraction of bio oil can be used as a source for hydrogen production, if reformed in the presence of active catalytic materials. Recently, we introduced the concept of the spouted bed reactor for the ...

Aqueous-phase reforming of the low-boiling fraction of rice husk pyrolyzed bio-oil in the presence of platinum catalyst for hydrogen production.

Aqueous-phase reforming (APR) of the low-boiling fraction (LBF) of bio-oil from rice husk pyrolysis was investigated over Pt/Al(2)O(3) for hydrogen production. The influence of reaction temperature (503-563 K), reaction time (1-4h), different load of organics in water (3-12 wt.%) and catalyst amounts (0.25-1g) were studied. The hydrogen content of the gas products reached 65 vol.% at 533 K for ...
