Invention:
This invention is a control system that allows the precise combining of a hydrocarbon fuel, steam and Ai/O2 l in an integrated auto-thermal reformer and water-shifting reactor unit. The device can achieve thermal management to have favorable high and low temperature for both auto thermal reformers and water shifting reactors.
Applications:
- Hydrogen fuel cells
- Processing / refining
- Chemical synthesis
Advantages
- Achieves thermal management to have favorable high and low temperatures
- High hydrogen conversion rate from hydrocarbon fuels
- Allows integration of auto-thermal reformer and water-shifting reactor
