Definitions

  • the invention relates to a process for producing hydrogen, comprising a steam methane reforming (SMR) step, wherein heat for the endothermic reforming reaction is partially provided by converting electrical energy into heat, and partially provided by combustion.
  • SMR steam methane reforming
  • the global hydrogen output is estimated at 70 Mt per year, most of which is produced by the steam methane reforming (SMR) process, in which natural gas reacts with steam to yield hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO).
  • SMR steam methane reforming
  • This mixture referred to as synthesis gas or syngas, is further converted by means of a water-gas shift unit to yield a shifted synthesis gas mixture consisting mainly of hydrogen and carbon dioxide (CO2).
  • the location of the carbon dioxide capture is for instance the shifted synthesis gas, tail gas from a pressure swing adsorption unit, and flue gas.
  • the process for capturing the carbon dioxide may involve chemical absorption, in particular an amine wash, adsorption (e.g. a CO2 VPSA), cryogenic separation, or a membrane separation of the carbon dioxide to be captured.
  • the carbon dioxide in the shifted synthesis gas makes about 60 % of the total direct carbon dioxide emissions of the SMR process. This share can be captured with relative ease owing to the high concentration I partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the shifted synthesis gas.
  • the current industry standard is to capture the carbon dioxide on the shifted synthesis gas with a chemical wash, typically an amine wash, or with a cryogenic and membrane separation on the tail gas of a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) unit, after the hydrogen has been separated from the shifted synthesis gas by means of said PSA unit.
  • PSA pressure swing adsorption
  • the remaining about 40 % of the carbon dioxide emissions are linked to the combustion of residual carbon monoxide (CO) and methane (CH4) in the PSA tail gas and/or hydrocarbon-based fuel, to generate the heat required for the endothermic SMR reaction.
  • the flue gas With the recycle of PSA tail gas to the burners, the flue gas will contain all the direct carbon dioxide emissions of the SMR process. A capture rate of approximately 90 % can thus be achieved in the flue gas, albeit at a higher capture cost, owing to the low pressure of the flue gas, and the low partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the flue gas.
  • An alternative to a traditional SMR setup is to replace the firebox by an electrically heated reactor, and thus provide the required amount of heat for the reaction with electricity as the energy vector.
  • a SMR process such a solution would obviate the combustion of additional hydrocarbon fuel, and the consequent formation of a low pressure flue gas in which carbon dioxide capture is difficult. Under the assumption that electricity from a renewable energy source is used, it should reduce the carbon footprint of the process, and facilitate carbon capture.
  • An electrically heated SMR thus raises the prospect of a reduced carbon footprint, more cost efficient carbon capture, as well as a more compact reformer design, since the reformer design is no longer limited by the constraint of transferring heat from the furnace to the reformer tubes, which imposes a large surface area for the heat exchange in a conventional reformer.
  • an external power generator induces an electric current to pass through the reactor following a conductive path.
  • Heat is supplied to the SMR catalyst by dissipating power (Joule effect) through resistive media.
  • the resistive medium can consist of the catalyst structure directly, or of other conductive heating elements (wire, pipe wall, conductive pellets).
  • washcoated monoliths and other different structured catalysts have been studied for electrically heated steam or dry reforming, exploiting the conductivity of the structured material with respect to both heat and electricity when it is connected to a power source.
  • Another option is to fill the reactor with a mixture of catalyst pellets and electrically conductive particles able to drive an electric current through the packed bed.
  • the most straightforward application of the electric heating method is employing a distribution of heating elements not shaped as the catalyst but still allowing the passage of electric current dissipating the required heat to the reactive zone.
  • the main advantage of such a system is the improved heat transfer efficiency and the prospect of a better control of the temperature along the catalyst bed.
  • the issue related to the wall thermal resistance is then overcome, so that in principle a cold outer reactor surface can be obtained when a refractory layer is used to prevent dissipation of heat. Thanks to the internal heat supply a large external heat exchange surface area is no longer required to facilitate the heat transfer, so that much more compact solutions can be developed for the reactor configuration.
  • US 9,908,091 B1 discloses a furnace device for steam reforming of hydrocarbons (preferably methane) consisting of a combustion chamber hosting reactor tubes, burners, a voltage source and electrical conductors, so that the tubes can be heated both by the combustion of fuel in the burners, as well as by supplying electric current.
  • hydrocarbons preferably methane
  • the electric field essentially acts as a catalyst by lowering the activation energy of the reforming reaction, with the consequence that the reforming can be carried out at lower temperatures.
  • the underlying principle is that the electric field induces proton hopping amongst the water particles adsorbed on the catalyst surface (according to the so- called Grotthuss mechanism), and enables the migration of the 0 2 - (oxide) anions between the catalyst surface and the gas phase. Both of these phenomena reduce the surface potential of the catalyst and the activation barrier, boosting the reaction rate.
  • the reactor configuration includes coils internally or externally installed, and incorporates a magnetic material, such as magnetic nanoparticles or thin films.
  • a magnetic material such as magnetic nanoparticles or thin films.
  • a magnetic field is formed around it, which in turn generates a Foucault current.
  • Heat is generated as the power of this induced current is dissipated by Joule heating.
  • the heating mechanism occurs by magnetic hysteresis loss, while in the presence of macroscopic conducting material eddy currents are responsible for resistive heating.
  • the reforming step is followed by a water-gas shift step, in which water and carbon monoxide react to form hydrogen and carbon dioxide.
  • a (final) purification step most often in the form of a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) unit, the carbon dioxide, the unconverted methane and carbon monoxide, and any other components are separated from the hydrogen product.
  • PSA offgas also known as PSA tail gas, which is desorbed from the PSA unit at low pressure.
  • the PSA tail gas may account for up to 80 % of the total fuel required to generate the heat for the reforming reaction, with the remaining heat supplied in the form of a make-up fuel, generally a light hydrocarbon material such as natural gas.
  • a make-up fuel generally a light hydrocarbon material such as natural gas.
  • An electrically heated SMR process with carbon capture in which the carbon dioxide is captured by means of a cryogenic process on the PSA tail gas, and where the remaining PSA off-gas (which is rich in carbon monoxide and methane) is combusted to generate electricity for the electrical heated reformer, does not yield a significant improvement over a conventional SMR process in which the carbon dioxide is captured by means of a cryogenic process on the PSA tail gas, and in which the remaining PSA off-gas (which is rich in carbon monoxide and methane) is combusted to generate part of the heat required for the reforming reaction.
  • the electrically heated SMR is referred to as “e-SMR”.
  • a process for producing hydrogen comprising a) a steam methane reforming (SMR) step, to obtain a synthesis gas stream comprising hydrogen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, by means of an endothermic reaction of a hydrocarbon containing feedstock stream and steam, wherein the heat for the endothermic reaction is provided by means of a first and a second heat portion, wherein the first heat portion is provided by converting electrical energy into heat, and the second heat portion is provided by combustion of a fuel; b) a water-gas shift step, comprising the conversion of carbon monoxide of the synthesis gas stream and steam to hydrogen and carbon dioxide, to obtain a shifted synthesis gas stream; c) a hydrogen production step, comprising separating hydrogen from the shifted synthesis gas stream, to obtain a hydrogen product stream and a tail gas stream; d) a tail gas separation step, comprising separating the tail gas stream into at least one fuel containing stream and a carbon dioxide product
