Techno-economic evaluation of membrane technology for pre-combustion decarbonisation: Water-gas shift versus reforming

Non-precious metal (pre-)commercial catalysts for Pd membrane water gas shift

“…The membrane water gas shift reactor has been modeled with in-house user subroutine. This model is a non-isothermal 1-dimensional model with discretization over the reactor length, accounting for reaction and permeation, including effects of hydrogen depletion at the feed side and enrichment at the permeate side [4]. The starting points for the system simulation have been taken from IEA [5].…”

“…Furthermore, this model was used to make an estimation of the optimum amount of catalyst inside the reactor. The software Aspen Plus User Model with a Fortran sub-routine was used as a tool to make this model [4,5,7,8].…”

WGS Reaction in Membrane Reactors

“…Dijkstra et al [56] compared membrane WGS reaction with membrane reforming in the natural gas combined cycles with CO 2 capture. Their simulation results indicate that membrane WGS reaction suits well for CO 2 capture compared to the membrane reforming.…”

Thermodynamic analysis of autothermal steam‐reforming of methane for ammonia production

“…Baloyi et al conducted an experiment for the production of hydrogen through a palladium silver membrane WGS reactor 52 . Dijkstra et al have assessed the technical and economic factors of membrane technology and studied WGS versus reforming characteristics 53 . Gazzani et al have discussed carbon capture using sorption‐enhanced WGS 54 .…”
