Modeling and Design of a Multi-Tubular Packed-Bed Reactor for Methanol Steam Reforming over a Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 Catalyst
Methanol as a hydrogen copyright can be reformed with steam over Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalysts.In this paper a comprehensive pseudo-homogenous model of a multi-tubular packed-bed reformer has been developed to investigate the impact of operating conditions and geometric parameters on its performance.A kinetic Langmuir-Hinshelwood model of the methanol ste
