The issue of hydrogen production from methanol
Thread Content
Hydrogen production from methanol: how many moles of hydrogen can be produced from one mole of methanol?
CH3OH→CO+2H2 (1) H2O+CO→CO2+H2 (2) CH3OH+H2O→CO2+3H2 (3) The theory is 3 moles.
Theoretically, it is 3 moles, but in practice about 2.4 moles can be converted
Theoretically, it is 3 mol; in practice, the conversion rate of CH3OH is over 98%, but the yield of the PSA unit is generally around 80%, which is why the value of 2.4 mol is mentioned. In short, it depends on how you view this issue. :D
There are chemical equations; just calculate them by yourself. It’s not difficult at all. You could figure it out in the time it takes to ask the question
