Thermal protection is a critical problem in the development of hypersonic aircraft. To enhance the thermal protection capability of hydrocarbon fuel, the ethanol-assisted catalytic steam reforming of endothermic hydrocarbon fuel was proposed. The result shows that the total heat sink can be significantly improved by the endothermic reactions of ethanol. A higher water/ethanol ratio can promote the steam reforming of ethanol and further increase the chemical heat sink. The addition of 10 wt % ethanol at 30 wt % water content can improve the total heat sink by 8–17% at 300–550 °C, which is caused by the heat absorption by phase transition and chemical reactions of ethanol. The reaction region of thermal cracking moves backward, resulting in the suppression of thermal cracking. Meanwhile, the addition of ethanol can inhibit the coke deposition and increase the working temperature upper limit of the active thermal protection.

Global demand for alternative renewable energy sources is increasing due to the consumption of fossil fuels and the increase in greenhouse gas emissions. Hydrogen (H2) from biomass gasification is a green energy segment among the alternative options, as it is environmentally friendly, renewable, and sustainable. Accordingly, researchers focus on conducting experiments and modeling the reforming reactions in conventional and membrane reactors. The construction of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models is an essential tool used by researchers to study the performance of reforming and membrane reactors for hydrogen production and the effect of operating parameters on the methane stream, improving processes for reforming untreated biogas in a catalyst-fixed bed and membrane reactors. This review article aims to provide a good CFD model overview of recent progress in catalyzing hydrogen production through various reactors, sustainable steam reforming systems, and carbon dioxide utilization. This article discusses some of the issues, challenges, and conceivable arrangements to aid the efficient generation of hydrogen from steam reforming catalytic reactions and membrane reactors of bioproducts and fossil fuels.
