Abstract:Fugacity coefficients for the components in the gas mixture are determined using the Soave–Redlich–Kwong (SRK) equation of state. The Gibbs free energy minimization method is employed to determine the equilibrium composition of the components for CO2 reforming of CH4 to syngas. To utilize CO2 efficiently and avoid carbon deposition, CO2 composition in the initial feed should not be greater than 1 (nCH4,0 = 1), and the reaction is preferably operated at atmospheric pressure. Setting nCH4,0:nCO2,0 to 1:1, and in… Show more
