Embodiment 1

[0048] Example 1 illustrates the effect of adopting the method for producing hydrogen by steam reforming of methane provided by the present invention.

[0049] Preparation of reforming catalyst: Use alumina as a carrier, impregnate with nickel nitrate solution, then dry, then contact with aluminum colloidal solution containing nitric acid to form a paste, extrude into strips, and then dry at 120°C for 180 minutes, The dried catalyst was calcined at 500° C. for 4 hours to obtain a catalyst whose nickel content was 10 wt%.

[0050] CO 2 Preparation of adsorbent: Add a certain amount of nano-scale calcium carbonate to alumina hydrosol with a solid content of 10%, add a small amount of water and stir evenly, add nano-scale calcium carbonate, mix well, spray dry, and calcinate to obtain an average particle size of 70 microns CO 2 Adsorbent, its CaO composition is 50%, the rest is alumina.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing hydrogen by reforming methane. technical background [0002] Hydrogen is an important gas raw material, which is widely used in oil refining, chemical industry, metallurgy and other industries, and it is also a clean battery fuel. Steam reforming of methane is currently the method with the lowest cost and the largest amount of hydrogen production in hydrogen production. About 50% of hydrogen is produced through natural gas steam reforming. Fixed-bed reactors are mostly used for hydrogen production by steam reforming of methane. The hydrogen production process includes a one-stage or two-stage conversion reaction at 800-820°C. 2 and H 2 , to further remove CO and CO by solvent absorption or methanol washing 2 , CO in the final equilibrium product 2 The content is 15-20%, H 2 The content is less than 75%, and high-purity H can be obtained by pressure swing adsorption 2 . Hydrogen production by steam ...
