136 IPCC Special Report on Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage syngas, and in the case when liquid or solid fuels are gasified, particulates, NH3, COS and HCN are also present in the system that need to be removed. In general, all of these pollutants can be removed from a high-pressure fuel gas prior to combustion, where combustion products are diluted with nitrogen and excess oxygen. In the combustion of hydrogen or a hydrogen- containing fuel gas, NOx may be formed. Depending upon combustion technology and hydrogen fraction, the rate at which NOx is formed may vary. If the volumetric fraction of hydrogen is below approximately 50-60%, NOx formation is at the same level as for natural gas dry low-NOx systems (Todd and Battista, 2001). sorption enhanced water gas shift reactor, gave a theoretical net efficiency of 48.3% with 90% CO2 capture at 99% purity and 150 bar pressure (Hufton et al., 2005). The process is currently at the pilot plant stage. Inorganic membranes with operating temperatures up to 1000°C offer the possibility of combining reaction and separation of the hydrogen in a single stage at high temperature and pressure to overcome the equilibrium limitations experienced in conventional reactor configurations for the production of hydrogen. The combination of separation and reaction in membrane steam reforming and/or membrane water gas shift offers higher conversion of the reforming and/or shift reactions due to the removal of hydrogen from these equilibrium reactions as shown in Reactions (1) and (3) respectively. The reforming reaction is endothermic and can, with this technique, be forced to completion at lower temperature than normal (typically 500- 600°C). The shift reaction being exothermic can be forced to completion at higher temperature (500-600°C). Another reason to incorporate H2 separation membranes in the hydrogen production system is that CO2 is also produced without the need for additional separation equipment. Membrane reactors allow one-step reforming, or a single intermediate water gas shift reaction, with hydrogen separation (the permeate) leaving behind a retentate gas which is predominantly CO2 and a small amount of non-recovered hydrogen and steam. This CO2 remains at the relatively high pressure of the reacting system (see Figure 3.17). Condensation of the steam leaves a concentrated CO2 stream at high pressure, reducing the compression energy for transport and storage. Membrane reforming will benefit from high-pressure operation due to the increased H2 partial pressure differential across the membrane which is the driving force for hydrogen permeation. Therefore membrane reactors are also seen as a good option for pre-combustion de-carbonization where a low-pressure hydrogen stream for fuel gas and a high- pressure CO2-rich stream for transport and storage are required. The use of the membrane reformer reactor in a gas turbine combined cycle means that the hydrogen needs to be produced at such pressure that the significant power consumption for the hydrogen compression is avoided. This could be done by increasing the operating pressure of the membrane reactor or by using a sweep gas, for instance steam, at the permeate side of the membrane (Jordal et al., 2003). For these membrane reactor concepts, a hydrogen selective membrane capable of operating in a high-temperature, high- pressure environment is needed. In the literature a number of membrane types have been reported that have these capabilities and these are listed in Table 3.3. Microporous inorganic membranes based upon surface diffusion separation exhibit rather low separation factors (e.g., H2/CO2 separation factor of 15). However, the separation ability of the current commercially available gamma-alumina and silica microporous membranes (which have better separation factors, up to 40) depends upon the stability of the membrane pore size, which is adversely In general, with the exception of H2S that could be co- removed with CO2, other pollutants identified above are separated in additional pretreatment operations, particularly in systems that gasify liquid or solid fuels. High temperature pretreatment operations for these multi-pollutants that avoid cooling of the syngas have the advantage of improving the cycle efficiency of the overall gasification process, but these separation processes have not been commercially demonstrated. Although it is not yet regulated as a ‘criteria pollutant’, mercury (Hg), is currently the focus of considerable concern as a pollutant from coal power systems. For gasification systems Hg can be recovered from syngas at ambient temperatures at very low-cost, compared to Hg recovery from flue gases (Klett et al., 2002). 3.5.3 Emerging technologies Emerging options in both natural gas reforming and coal gasification incorporate novel combined reaction/separation systems such as sorption-enhanced reforming and sorption- enhanced water gas shift, membrane reforming and membrane water gas shift. Finally there is a range of technologies that make use of the carbonation of CaO for CO2 capture. A concept called Sorption Enhanced Reaction (SER) uses a packed bed containing a mixture of a catalyst and a selective adsorbent to remove CO2 from a high temperature reaction zone, thus driving the reaction to completion. (Hufton et al., 1999). The adsorbent is periodically regenerated by using a pressure swing, or temperature swing adsorption system with steam regeneration (Hufton et al., 2005). 3.5.3.1 Sorption enhanced reaction High temperature CO2 adsorbents such as hydrotalcites (Hufton et al., 1999) or lithium silicate (Nakagawa and Ohashi, 1998) can be mixed with a catalyst to promote either the steam methane reforming reaction (Reaction 1) or water gas shift reaction (Reaction 3) producing pure hydrogen and pure CO2 in a single process unit. The continuous removal of the CO2 from the reaction products by adsorption shifts each reaction towards completion. The SER can be used to produce hydrogen at 400-600oC to fuel a gas turbine combined cycle power generation system.
