【 摘 要 】

This final report summarizes the progress made on the program 'Simultaneous Production of High-Purity Hydrogen and Sequestration-Ready CO(sub 2) from Syngas (contract number DE-FG26-99FT40682)', during October 2000 through September of 2003. GE Energy and Environmental Research (GE-EER) and Southern Illinois University (SIU) at Carbondale conducted the research work for this program. This program addresses improved methods to efficiently produce simultaneous streams of high-purity hydrogen and separated carbon dioxide from synthesis gas (syngas). The syngas may be produced through either gasification of coal or reforming of natural gas. The process of production of H(sub 2) and separated CO(sub 2) utilizes a dual-bed reactor and regenerator system. The reactor produces hydrogen and the regenerator produces separated CO(sub 2). The dual-bed system can be operated under either a circulating fluidized-bed configuration or a cyclic fixed-bed configuration. Both configurations were evaluated in this project.
