EVALUATION OF DESIGN PARAMETERS FOR A 32-MODULE DISK-TYPE MEMBRANE-CATALYTIC REACTOR FOR PRODUCING HIGH-PURITY HYDROGEN FROM DIESEL FUEL

摘要

The design of a 32-module disk-type membrane-catalytic reactor for producing high-purity hydrogen (H-2) from diesel fuel at a rate of 7.45 m(3) H-2/h is analyzed by mathematical modeling. The used mathematical model is adequate and describes well published quantitative design data. A possible way for increasing the productivity and efficiency of high-purity H-2 production from diesel fuel in the membrane-catalytic reactor is proposed.
