Oxidative reforming of methane for hydrogen and synthesis gas production: Thermodynamic equilibrium analysis

Use of CO2 as a co-reactant to promote syngas production in supercritical water gasification of sugarcane bagasse

“…In some papers, the models of Gibbs energy minimization for isothermic systems [4,7,13,[18][19][20][21][22][23] and entropy maximization for adiabatic systems [13] demonstrated excellent ability to represent the experimental behavior in different operational conditions. In next sections, the effect of CO 2 addition was analyzed in isothermic and adiabatic systems for SCWG of sugarcane bagasse.…”

“…The Gibbs energy minimization and entropy maximization models were previously validated with both experimental and simulated data for the SCWG of microalgae biomass [6], for the SCWG of glucose and cellulose [7], for the oxidative reforming of methane [13] and for SCWG of glycerol and microalgae biomass from Spirulina sp. [18].…”

“…These methodologies and considerations were applied in previous works of our research group with good predictive results for similar systems like as SCWG of microalgae biomass [6], glucose and cellulose [7] and oxidative reforming of methane [13].…”

Dehydroaromatization of methane over Sn–Pt modified Mo/H-ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts: Effect of preparation method

“…Its abundance has led to much interest for use in the production of hydrocarbon substrates which are useful in the production of fuels [1][2][3]. The importance of methane for production of hydrocarbons in the petrochemical industry is linked to the production of synthesis gas via methane reforming [4,5], methanol synthesis [6] and the methanol to gasoline (MTG) process [7,8]. One alternative pathway for utilization of natural gas is methane dehydroaromatization (MDA) in the absence of oxygen.…”

Thermodynamic Analysis of Autothermal Reforming of Methane via Entropy Maximization: Hydrogen Production

“…In the work of Rossi et al (2011) the ATR is not considered among the cases studied. Freitas and Guirardello (2012) conducted a thermodynamic analysis of oxidative reforming of methane, using GFEm to determine the equilibrium compositions and EMM just to determine the equilibrium temperatures. However, the entropy maximization method provides complete information on the equilibrium state at known pressure and enthalpy, i.e., it is not limited to the determination of the equilibrium temperature.…”
