INFLUENCE OF THE MIXED MOLTEN CARBONATE COMPOSITION FOR HYDROGEN FORMATION BY STEAM GASIFICATION OF WASTE MATERIALS
Hydrogen is important as an energy source of a fuel cell and an energy storage medium. The hydrogen production process by using the steam reforming of naphtha or the partial oxidation of heavy hydrocarbon resources has already put in practical use. However, these processes are not suitable for hydrogen formation from waste materials, and development of small and high efficient new technology is expected.The steam gasification of carbon residue was promoted in the presence of carbonates. Particularly, rate of the gasification was accelerated significantly by using mixed carbonates. The activation energy of the reaction with carbonates was smaller than that observed without carbonates. The effects of the mixed carbonates were caused not only by increasing of physical-contact-efficiency due to fluidization of molten salt, but also by increasing catalytic activity of the carbonates.
