#17 - Fuel Processing for Hydrogen Production From Fossil Fuels: Plasma Reforming (TB001)
This session will focus on the reforming for applications involving fuel cell systems. Topics of interest will include, but are not limited to the following: • Catalytic reforming (partial oxidation, 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 • Water gas shift, preferential oxidation, methanation reaction • Fuel cleanup – desulfurization • Systems analysis/technology integration for fuel processors • Technology Applications
