Hydrogen is produced by catalytic reforming of methanol mixed with water, followed by purification to obtain high-purity hydrogen gas.
Methanol reforming is used in industrial hydrogen plants to generate hydrogen from liquid feedstock through a controlled catalytic process.
Methanol is used because it is basic hydrocarbon having small carbon chain & is easy to store, transport, and provides a cost-effective feedstock for on-site hydrogen generation systems.
A methanol reforming unit produces hydrogen-rich gas, which is further purified for industrial applications.
