Steam reforming process for conversion of hydrocarbons to hydrogen (2024)
Book Chapter
Udemu, C., & Font Palma, C. (2024). Steam reforming process for conversion of hydrocarbons to hydrogen. In M. R. Rahimpour, M. A. Makarem, & P. Kiani (Eds.), Hydrogen Production from Non-renewable Resources (33-72). CRC Press. https://doi.org/10.1201/9781003382263-5

For many years, the steam reforming process has been used to generate hydrogen gas from a variety of feedstocks, including natural gas, propane, naphtha, and coal. The hydrocarbons are converted into hydrogen gas and carbon dioxide using a catalyst a... Read More about Steam reforming process for conversion of hydrocarbons to hydrogen.

Towards sustainable methanol from industrial CO2 sources (2019)
Book Chapter
Douven, S., Benkoussas, H., Font-Palma, C., & Léonard, G. (2019). Towards sustainable methanol from industrial CO2 sources. In M. North, & P. Styring (Eds.), Carbon Dioxide Utilization : Volume 2 : Transformations (361-384). De Gruyter. https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110665147-019

This chapter discusses the opportunity of using CO2 from industrial sources to produce sustainable methanol. Some important industrial sectors that could be seen as potential sources of CO2 are reviewed: ammonia, steel, ethanol, ethylene, natural gas...
