| Abstract | The work aims to develop a novel technology for hydrogen production through Steam Methane Reforming. The concept of adsorption enhanced reaction is utilised to overcome the reaction equilibria, and thus considerably reduce the operating temperature necessary for a particular production rate, and provide i in-situ separation (concentration) of hydrogen gas. However, unlike previous studies in this area, the continuous flow of adsorbent within a packed or structured reactor is considered. Adsorbent regeneration is carried out outside the reactor, thus decoupling the reaction and regeneration phases, and enabling a steady-flow (non-periodic) process analogue for adsorption enhanced reaction. The novel process can be viewed as the adsorptive-reactor equivalent of | |
