Water gas shift (WGS) is a thermodynamics limited reaction and CO equilibrium conversion
of a traditional reactor is furthermore reduced owing to the presence of H2 (ca. 50%) in the …

Small-scale fixed-bed coal and biomass gasifiers represent an attractive option for
distributed combined heat and power generation. As known, gasification phenomena are …

The present work is a study of CO2 Reforming of Methane (DRM) carried out in a catalytic
Pd-based membrane reactor. A detailed thermodynamic analysis is carried out, calculating …

In the hydrogen production cycle the syngas stream coming out from reformers or coal
gasification plants contains a large percentage of H2 (ca. 50%) and CO (ca 45%). In fact, it is …

In H2 production, the reformer downstream upgrading is a fundamental step for CO (ca.
10%) reduction. H2 (ca. 50%) presence limits CO conversion (ca. 25%) significantly (by …

Hydrogen production through coal gasification is becoming one of the most attractive
options for energy production due to its remarkable advantages in pollution control and …

Nowadays, the need for a diversification in primary energy sources has raised an increasing
interest in coal, which allows a larger price stability and represents a reliable primary source …
