When naphtha is used as a raw material for dry gas hydrogen production, what is the typical water-to-carbon ratio that is maintained? The conversion catalyst is Z417 Z418
It is generally kept around 3.7 to 3.9; this depends mainly on the properties of the raw materials and whether there are frequent changes in the processing volume. By calculating the carbon source, operations can be optimized in a timely manner. If this value is too low, the catalyst is prone to coking and carbon formation, which affects its activity. Moreover, the distribution of substances within each furnace tube becomes uneven, leading to uneven flow! It’s a huge waste of energy; cooling costs are high afterward!
Which company is the poster from? We would like to go and inspect the naphtha-based hydrogen production facility
Is it really okay to use naphtha as a hydrogen production feedstock with such a low water-to-carbon ratio? Are there any naphtha-based hydrogen production plants in operation? I’d like to learn more about it as well
