Working Principle
Under the conditions of temperature and pressure, methanol and water vapor undergo cracking reaction and carbon monoxide shift reaction through catalyst to generate hydrogen and carbon dioxide. This is a multi-component, multi-reaction catalytic reaction system that obtains pure hydrogen through a pressure swing adsorption process.

Components of the gas produced from methanol reformation for hydrogen production
Hydrogen: 75%
Carbon dioxide: 24%
Other components: carbon monoxide, methane, etc.

The main reaction formula is as follows

Technical Indicators
Hydrogen H2: 75% Carbon Dioxide CO2: ≤5ppm
Carbon monoxide CO: ≤5ppm Purity: 99.9-99.9999%

Product features of methanol cracking hydrogen production unit
1. Hydrogen production from methanol cracking is the core product of our company, with reasonable structure and low energy consumption, which is 10% lower than similar products.
2. The device runs stably and can be stopped all year round.
3. The device occupies a small area and is reasonably arranged, which is the smallest in the domestic similar devices.
4. The automation level is high, which can realize unmanned management on site.
5. The device can adjust the load freely under the flow rate of 30-110, which is safe and stable.
6. PSA hydrogen outlet pressure can reach 2.5Mpa without pressurization. If you need a higher pressure, we can provide you with a pressurization solution up to 15Mpa.
7. According to the situation of your site, we can make the system into steel structure, concrete structure, box structure, semi-enclosed structure, turnkey project of the whole system.
8. As of 2015, the maximum hydrogen production from methanol designed by the company is 20,000Nm³/h.
