Factorial design analysis of parameters for the sorption-enhanced steam reforming of ethanol in a circulating fluidized bed riser using CFD

Abstract

The sorption-enhanced steam reforming of ethanol (SESRE) has recently been reported as a novel process for hydrogen (H2) production.

Modelling of Sorption-Enhanced Steam Reforming (Se-Sr) Process in Fluidised Bed Reactors for Low-Carbon Hydrogen Production: A Review

“…Similarly, Phuakpunk et al presented a simple 2D two-fluid model to simulate SE-SR of methane [111] and ethanol [120] in the riser of a CFB reactor. As with some other works, model validation was comparable for hydrogen output but showed great deviation for CO 2 concentrationabout 40 %.…”
