Methanol decomposition

High purity

Decomposition of methanol is a proven and reliable way of obtaining high purity hydrogen or syngas. Unlike competing methods for production of hydrogen or syngas, such as reforming of natural gas or gasification of coal for production, methanol decomposition does not require high temperatures or pressures.

Equipment for methanol decomposition

Methanol decomposition reactor

The methanol decomposition reactor typically contains a tube bundle with a couple of dozen to a few thousand tubes.

Applications within this area

Purification

Our different reforming layouts can be tailor-made to meet the requirements of the client without compromising on reliability.

Carbon dioxide recovery

In some cases, producing CO2 as a byproduct of a hydrogen plant can improve your business case.

CO shift

Efficient carbon monoxide shift conversion plays an important role in the operating cost of the hydrogen plant.

Methanation

A well-functioning methanation section is vital for the optimal operation.

Syngas purification

In order to meet the required hydrogen specification, purification technologies like PSA, membrane, and cold box are required.
