Membrane Reactors for Hydrogen Production Processes deals with
technological and economic aspects of hydrogen selective membranes
application in hydrogen production chemical processes. Membrane
Reactors for Hydrogen Production Processes starts with an overview
of membrane integration in the chemical reaction environment,
formulating the thermodynamics and kinetics of membrane reactors
and assessing the performance of different process architectures.
Then, the state of the art of hydrogen selective membranes,
membrane manufacturing processes and the mathematical modeling of
membrane reactors are discussed. A review of the most useful
applications from an industrial point of view is given. These
applications include: natural gas steam reforming,autothermal
reforming,water gas shift reaction,decomposition of hydrogen
sulphide, andalkanes dehydrogenation.The final part is dedicated to
the description of a pilot plant where the novel configuration was
implemented at a semi-industrial scale. Plant engineers,
researchers and postgraduate students will find Membrane Reactors
for Hydrogen Production Processes a comprehensive guide to the
state of the art of membrane reactor technology.
