Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
This invention relates to a process and apparatus for the production of pure hydrogen by steam reforming. The process integrates the steam reforming and shift reaction to produce pure hydrogen with minimal production of CO and virtually no CO in the hydrogen stream, provides for CO 2 capture for sequestration, employs a steam reforming membrane reactor, and is powered by heat from the convection section of a heater.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
That which is claimed is: 1. A process system, comprising: a steam reformer furnace, having a reformer reactor located within a radiant section of said furnace and a convection section located downstream from said radiant section and connected by a furnace conduit, wherein provided within said radiant section is fuel combustion means for combustion a fuel source to release radiant energy to drive a reforming reaction within said reformer reactor and for yielding hot flue gases pr…
