Mathematical Modeling and Optimization of Combined Steam and Dry Reforming of Methane Process in Catalytic Fluidized Bed Membrane Reactor

A comparative study of CO2 utilization in methanol synthesis with various syngas production technologies

“…The bireforming reactor is modeled and optimized using the RPlug model in Aspen Plus which consists of 4 tubes, each being 10 m in length and 0.1 m in diameter. Reaction kinetics input to the RPlug model are based on Shahkarami [32] in which the author used kinetics from a Ni/Al 2 O 3 catalyst to present SMR reaction [33]. Whereas for DMR reaction, Shahkarami [16] employed the kinetics of DMR reaction on a Ni/La 2 O 3 catalyst as reported by Verykios [32].…”

The kinetic expressions are re-arranged in accordance with the LHHW formula built-in Aspen Plus.…”

Model-based analysis of CO2 revalorization for di-methyl ether synthesis driven by solar catalytic reforming

“…The kinetics are based on the work of Shahkarami and Fatemi [40]. For the SMR associated reactions, the kinetics of a Ni/Al 2 O 3 catalyst proposed by Xu and Froment [41] are used.…”

Sustainability assessment of combined steam and dry reforming versus tri‐reforming of methane for syngas production

“…10 A thorough review of TR covering all literatures and patents are recently reported by Amin and coworkers. 11 Most previous researches on the reforming routes have been focusing on the improvement of methane conversion in aspects such as the reactor design, 12,13 reaction kinetics 14,15 or catalyst selection. [16][17][18] There has been seldom report on the sustainability assessment of the reforming routes in economic, environmental, and societal aspects.…”
