摘要

Water gas shift (WGS) reaction is critical to hydrogen purification for fuel cells. Since the WGS reaction is reversible, the reaction is not efficient, resulting in a high concentration of unconverted CO (about 1%) in the H{sub}2 product and a bulky, heavy reactor. Using a CO{sub}2-selective membrane reactor shifts the reaction towards the product side, which enhances the conversion of CO and increases the purity of the H{sub}2 product at a high pressure. Also air can be used as the sweep gas to remove the permeate, CO{sub}2, on the low-pressure side of the membrane to have a high driving force for the separation. In this study, the reaction and transport process in the countercurrent WGS membrane reactor was simulated with a one-dimensional non-isothermal model using the recent experimental data of membrane selectivity and permeability, and the influences of several system parameters were investigated. In this modeling study, the synthesis gases with different CO concentrations from autothermal reforming of gasoline with air were used as the feed gas, while heated air was used as the sweep gas. The reaction rate equation for the Cu/ZnO catalyst from literature was incorporated into the model. The modeling results have shown that a CO concentration of less than 10 ppm, a H{sub}2 recovery of greater than 97%, and a H{sub}2 concentration of greater than 54% (on the dry basis) are achievable. As the CO{sub}2/H{sub}2 selectivity increased, the recovery of H{sub}2 increased, without affecting the membrane area requirement and the low CO attainment. Increasing sweep-to-feed flow rate ratio enhanced the permeation driving force but decreased the feed side temperature and thus the reaction rate, resulting in a net effect balanced between them. When an improved catalyst with higher activity was applied, the membrane area requirement reduced significantly. Higher membrane permeability also resulted in the reduction of the membrane area. These results have shown that both the reaction rate and the membrane permeability play an important role on the overall reactor behavior. In addition, it is expected with the advancement of the high temperature proton-exchange-membrane fuel cell (120-150°C) that the constraint for CO concentration can be relaxed to about 50 ppm in the near future. Therefore, the membrane area could be reduced significantly based on the modeling results.
