AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies for methanol-to-hydrogen processes suffer from high heat source consumption costs, slow dynamic response due to the distance of the heat source, and poor heat control, resulting in low hydrogen production efficiency and high costs.
The methanol-to-hydrogen system uses a heat source that is shared with the combustion furnace. It includes a heating base, furnace body, heat exchanger, water pump, integrated thermoelectric chamber and transfer chamber. The system optimizes heat management by cooling through heat exchanger, circulating cooling water through water pump, generating electricity from waste heat and reusing tail gas.
It improves hydrogen production efficiency, reduces the cost of artificial cooling and combustion, and enhances energy utilization.
