Fuel Processing for Hydrogen Production I


Description:
Large amounts of hydrogen are produced commercially by steam reforming of natural gas or by gasification of various carbonaceous fuels. Improvements to these commercial processes are desirable for providing hydrogen for fuel-cell systems. This session will focus on: catalytic reforming (partial oxidation, and steam, dry, and autothermal reforming) of various fuels; novel non-catalytic reforming technologies; hydrogen production from coal and renewable sources; reactor design for fuel processors; the water-gas shift reaction; preferential oxidation; the methanation reaction; fuel cleanup (desulfurization); systems analysis; technology integration for fuel processors; technology applications; and related topics.
