3D Simulation of bubbling fluidized bed reactors for sorption enhanced steam methane reforming processes / Yuefa Wang in Journal of natural gas science and engineering, Vol. 2 N° 2-3 (Juillet 2010) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of natural gas science and engineering > Vol. 2 N° 2-3 (Juillet 2010) . - pp. 105–113 Titre : 3D Simulation of bubbling fluidized bed reactors for sorption enhanced steam methane reforming processes Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Yuefa Wang, Auteur ; Zhongxi Chao, Auteur ; Hugo A. Jakobsen, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : pp. 105–113 Note générale : Génie Chimique Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Methane  reforming  Carbon  dioxide  capture  SE-SMR  CaO  sorbent  3D  simulation  Fluidized  bed Résumé : Hydrogen production by the Sorption Enhanced Steam Methane Reforming (SE-SMR) process was studied with a numerical two-fluid model. The process was simulated in a three dimensional bubbling fluidized bed reactor. The effects of pressure, steam-to-carbon ratio and inlet gas flow rate on the reactions are studied. High pressure and low steam-to-carbon ratio will decrease the conversion of methane. But the high pressure makes the adsorption of CO2 faster. Compared to the standard SMR process, the methane conversion and heat utility are enhanced by CO2 adsorption. The CO2 produced in the methane reforming process is adsorbed almost totally in a relative long period of time in the bubbling fluidized bed. It means that the adsorption rate of CO2 is fast enough compared with the SMR rate. In a certain range of gas flow rates, the mass transfer and reaction kinetics can reach the equilibrium, and the reaction efficiency is independent of gas flow rate. The temperature distribution is almost uniform over the whole reactor.

Effects of gas-solid hydrodynamic behavior on the reactions of the sorption enhanced steam methane reforming process in bubbling fluidized bed reactors / Yuefa Wang in Industrial & engineering chemistry research, Vol. 50 N° 14 (Juillet 2011) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Industrial & engineering chemistry research > Vol. 50 N° 14 (Juillet 2011) . - pp. 8430-8437 Titre : Effects of gas-solid hydrodynamic behavior on the reactions of the sorption enhanced steam methane reforming process in bubbling fluidized bed reactors Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Yuefa Wang, Auteur ; Zhongxi Chao, Auteur ; Hugo A. Jakobsen, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp. 8430-8437 Note générale : Chimie industrielle Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Fluidized  bed  reactor  Bubbling  Reforming  Water  vapor  Sorption  Hydrodynamics  Gas  solid Résumé : A three-dimensional two-fluid modeling approach with the kinetic theory of granular flow was used to study the process of sorption enhanced steam methane reforming (SE-SMR) carried out in a bubbling fluidized bed reactor. The effects of the superficial gas velocity and restitution coefficient on the solid flow pattern and reactions were investigated. The hydrodynamic properties of the reactive flow showed different behaviors compared to the cold flow. The superficial gas velocity and restitution coefficient influence the bed expansion and bed uniformity in different ways. The reactions ofSE-SMR were affected mainly by the superficial gas velocity, while the restitution coefficient has a smaller influence on the reactions. The CO2 adsorption is a faster reaction than the SMR reactions. A uniform bed state will be of more benefit to slow reactions than to fast reactions.

A sensitivity study of the two-fluid model closure parameters (β, e) determining the main gas−solid flow pattern characteristics / Yuefa Wang in Industrial & engineering chemistry research, Vol. 49 N° 7 (Avril 2010)

Jakobsen, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : pp. 3433–3441 Note générale : Industrial Chemistry Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Sensitivity  Two-Fluid  Model  Closure  Parameters  Main  Gas−Solid  Flow  (β,  e) Résumé : The closures determining the interactions of particle−particle and gas−particle are very important for gas−solid flow. A three-dimensional two-fluid modeling approach with the kinetic theory of granular flow is used to simulate the hydrodynamic behaviors of a bubbling fluidized bed and a circulating fluidized bed. The influences of the coefficient of restitution and the drag model on the flow pattern are studied. The simulation results for bubbling beds are compared with the experimental results of Lin et al.(1) It is found that the coefficient of restitution has strong influence on the flow pattern of the particle phase in bubbling beds. A relationship between the coefficient of restitution and the superficial inlet velocity is correlated. The effects of restitution coefficient on the distribution of solid phase in the circulating fluidized beds were also studied. In this case, the influence of the coefficient of restitution is weaker than for bubbling fluidized beds.
