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...

Microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) is one of the promising and cutting-edge technologies for generating hydrogen from wastewater through biodegradation of organic waste by exoelectrogenic microbes. In the MECs, the operational parameters, such as applied voltage (Eap), anode surface area, anode-cathode distance, and N2/CO2 volume ratio have a significant impact on the hydrogen yield and producti...

Introduction The Water Gas Shift Reaction (WGSR), an important industrial reaction for the production of chemicals and/or hydrogen, is expected to play a key role in the integration of gasification technologies with a H2 production/recovery unit. The effluent stream of the gasifier, mainly H2, CO and CO2 at high pressure (up to 30 atm) and temperature (up to 1000C), will be directed to the wate...

in order to detect hydrogen cyanide gene and to determine pseudomonas fluorescent efficiency in producing hydrogen cyanide for controlling the growth of rhizoctonia solanipathogen (the causal agent of sugar beet root and crown rot), samples were collected from sugar beet rhizosphere in sabzevar fields. after soil sampling and purification, 31 pseudomonas spp. isolates were separated on specific...

We are developing a novel high-efficiency, high-temperature steam electrolyzer. Although water or steam electrolysis is well known to be one of the cleanest ways to produce hydrogen, widespread utilization is hindered by high operational costs because of high electricity consumption. To decrease the electrical power input requirements in electrolysis, our approach uses natural gas as an anode d...

steam reforming is one of the most important processes for producing hydrogen from hydrocarbon fuels such as lpg and has attracted much attention due to its high efficiency and economy. in this study, the lpg steam reforming reaction was investigated on nickel catalysts supported on four various zeolites (h-y, na-y, hzsm5 and ferrierite). the catalytic tests were performed in a tubular fixed be...

OBJECTIVE Honey is an effective antiseptic wound dressing, mainly the result of the antibacterial activity of hydrogen peroxide that is produced in honey by the enzyme glucose oxidase. Because the rate of production of hydrogen peroxide is known to vary disproportionately when honey is diluted, and dilution of honey dressings will vary according to the amount of wound exudate, it is important t...

The deployment of wind energy is constrained by wind uncontrollability, which poses operational problems on the electricity supply system at high penetration levels, lessening the value of wind-generated electricity to a significant extent. This paper studies the viability of hydrogen production via electrolysis using wind power that cannot be easily accommodated on the system. The potential be...
