摘要
We prepared a catalytic membrane reactor (CMR) by adopting a high-performance metal catalyst and Pd-Au membrane to investigate the possibility of hydrogen production concurrently with carbon dioxide enrichment (up to >80%) in a single-stage reactor from a simulated syngas of a coal gasification, via simultaneous WGS reaction and hydrogen separation process. The CO conversion was above 99%and the H2 recovery was above 94%at del-P聽=聽30聽bar in a CMR. The best result for the concentration of the enriched CO2 in the retentate side was 85.3%under the conditions of 350聽掳C, del-P聽=聽30聽bar and steam to carbon ratio of 2.0. These results show promise for a feasible simplified process able to achieve CO removal from a high-concentration CO mixture gas coming out of coal gasification via a water-gas shift reaction (WGS), to separate hydrogen and also to enrich CO2 for pre-combustion capture and storage of CO2 (CCS) in substitution for the conventional WGS and CO2 separation stages in integrated gasification and combined cycle process integrated with CCS.
