Thermodynamic and Material Challenges in High-Temperature Reforming Processes
A threshold temperature of 700 °C is required for operating the catalyst once applied to Steam Methane Reforming (SMR) and Autothermal Reforming (ATR) for converting methane gas to hydrogen gas. There is a severe drawback to increasing by 700 °C, beyond the additional energy required. In this blog post, I will outline possible reasons we should use low-temperature catalysts from an engineering perspective. 1. Increasing the amount of energy/heat loss: According to the Stefa


Advancing Catalyst Design for Energy-Efficient Hydrogen Production
As discussed in my last blog post, the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) method uses catalysts to selectively capture degradation products (especially NO and NO2) in the Post-Carbon-Capture system. Traditionally, vanadium-based catalysts are widely used for their high efficiency at high temperature range (350–400°C) in industrial plants, as well as their cost-effectiveness compared to expensive precious metals like platinum. This doesn’t mean, however, that effectiveness is


Bridging the Lab-to-Plant Gap: Why CESAR-1's Journey from Promise to Practice Takes More Than a Decade
The technology that surrounds people’s lives is not developed in a vacuum, without concern. If we consider the technology itself, there are already examples that literally come out of an SF movie, such as vehicles flying through the sky and the ability to control objects simply by using the mind. However, can we easily see those technologies commonly in daily life? If not, why? To resolve this sort of question, it is much more understandable to accept a gap between a literal
