Compact and easy-to build catalytic methanol reformer, with high conversion efficiency

Methanol steam reforming in supported Pd

Methanol steam reforming in supported Pd membrane reactor The supported Pd membrane is promising for the production of high-purity hydrogen from catalytic steam reforming of methanol. At the 35°C reaction temperature, the catalyst activity and stability are promoted by increasing the alumina content. Here a compact doublejacketed reactor has generated high-purity hydrogen directly from steam reforming of methanol, with no need for external purification and a much higher recovery yield.

environments was investigated. The corrosion rate is higher under 'outlet' conditions at 700°C compared to standard conditions at 650°C and 'inlet' conditions at 600°C. The corrosion potential increases with time when a protective corrosion layer is formed. Eventually it reaches a more positive pote
