چکیده

The POXR and SMR methods adopted in producing hydrogen from methane gas are simulated and exergy analysis of both the processes are run for comparison. The effective parameters of the feeding materials ratio and the system temperature for maximizing hydrogen production and increasing efficiency are assessed here. Influenced by the changes in these parameters the unit efficiency is increased up to ۷۶%. The efficiency of POXR and SMR processes are calculated for new ratios. The results indicate that SMR process has higher exergy efficiency than POXR process. Exergy efficiency of SMR and POXR processes are obtained as to ۷۳.۲ and ۶۶.۹, respectively, where the SMR efficiency process is increased by ۲.۶% because of the changes in the feeding material ratio and temperature. Highest destruction of exergy in methanator reactor in SMR process is due to high temperature of reaction caused by irreversibility from chemical reactions. Exergy destruction is reduced at high temperature and unit molar ratio.

اطلاعات بیشتر در مورد COI

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
