Abstract: | The production of hydrogen from methane via two chemical looping reforming (CLR) processes was simulated and thermodynamically analysed, one process being the conventional CLR process, the other being a CO2 sorption enhanced process. The aim of the work was to identify suitable operating conditions for obtaining an optimum hydrogen gas purity and yield, whilst operating auto-thermally, at atmospheric pressure and with no carbon formation. In both simulations, the reactors were simulated using the Gibbs minimisation technique. NiO was used as the oxygen storing species, whilst CaO was used as the CO2 adsorbent. |
