Catalytic Steam Reforming
TL;DR: The steam reforming process converts hydrocarbons into mixtures of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and methane as discussed by the authors, which is used also for the well-knowm process for improvement of the octane number of gasoline.

Using steam reforming to produce hydrogen with carbon dioxide capture by chemical-looping combustion
Magnus Rydén,Anders Lyngfelt +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a novel process for hydrogen production by steam reforming of natural gas with inherent capture of carbon dioxide by chemical-looping combustion is proposed, which resembles a conventional circulating fluidized bed combustor with reforming taking place in reactor tubes located inside a bubbling fluidization bed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiobjective optimization of steam reformer performance using genetic algorithm
TL;DR: In this paper, an existing side-fired steam reformer is simulated using a rigorous model with proven reaction kinetics, incorporating aspects of heat transfer in the furnace and diffusion in the catalyst pellet.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the reported attempts to radically improve the performance of the steam methane reforming reactor
TL;DR: In this article, the authors critically review recent attempts to radically improve the SMR reactor performance, analyze the areas of improvement and the suitability of proposed configurations for different reforming applications, and analyse the domaines d'amelioration and de meilleure adaptabilite des configurations proposedes for different applications de reformage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-objective optimization of industrial hydrogen plants
TL;DR: In this paper, an entire industrial hydrogen plant is simulated using rigorous process models for the steam reformer and shift converters, and an adaptation of the nondominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA) is then employed to perform a multi-objective optimization on the unit performance.
