Simulation of partial oxidation of natural gas in a resource-saving reactor mixer

Modern industrial methods of producing hydrogen almost exclusively use fossil fuels, like natural gas, crude oil or coal, as raw materials. Methods such as steam reforming or partial steam oxidation to produce hydrogen from fossil hydrocarbons. This process chemically separates the carbon which is then converted to carbon monoxide (CO). These methods of hydrogen extraction are not ideal to actively protect the climate. There is currently a certain shortage of hydrogen in any refinery, so an additional source of hydrogen needed to stabilize the process. The work presents the results of simulating the processes in the homogeneous zone of the mixer and simulating the process of converting methane in the catalyst bed of the mine reactor using natural gas to produce hydrogen.
