7 To 30 Barg Hydrogen Power Generation Plants By Methanol Reforming

Full Automation Operation Hydrogen Production Plant By Methanol Reforming

How does the methanol reforming plants work?

Methanol reforming hydrogen production units are a common alternative, while hydrocarbons are not accessible. [When there is no hydrocarbon source. 
Under the action of a copper-based catalyst [copper catalyst], the methanol mixture Wither demineralized water (DM water) is evaporated, superheated and converted into syngas. The syngas is cooled to ambient temperature and then sent to a PSA system to purify high-purity hydrogen.
The block diagram of methanol reforming is shown in the figure below.
Thermal oil is used to maintain the reaction heat required for methanol cracking.

Features of methanol reforming plant
