Process modeling of natural gas reforming by steam over nickelalumina catalyst

In present paper modeling of natural gas reforming by steam over nickelalumina catalyst is investigated and key parameters such as pressure, temperature and mole ratio have been studied. The results show that the reforming performance is affected by temperature, pressure and ratio ofsteam to methane. The equations formass and energy balance equations and catalyst are mentioned. The combination of carbon monoxide and hydrogen are known as syngasand are used as a feedstock in the production of various products such as ammonia and liquid fuel applications. There are differenttechniques for the production of synthesis gas. One of these techniques is dry reforming that combination carbon dioxide andmethane are converted into synthesisgas.
