C&CS #1050 fluidizable nickel reforming catalyst
C&CS #1050 is a fluidizable, nickel-based vapor reforming catalyst developed within the EU project MEMBER for the Sorption Enhanced Reforming (SER) process for hydrogen production

Steam methane reforming (SMR) is an industrial process for producing synthesis gas, a mixture of H₂ and CO, from hydrocarbons such as natural gas. To produce hydrogen, the hydrogen content in the synthesis gas is increased by a high-temperature shift (HTS: CO + H₂O → > CO + H₂). The product gas is then purified in most cases using a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) process. If PSA is not feasible, further H₂ enrichment is also possible through a downstream low-temperature shift (LTS).
Relevance for hydrogen production
Steam reforming of natural gas is currently the most important process for hydrogen production. It is carried out in gas-fired furnaces at relatively high temperatures between 700 and 1000°C using nickel catalysts, such as ReforMax® 330. When steam reforming naphtha as a feedstream, the ReforMax® 330 requires the pre-reforming catalyst ReforMax® 100 to be installed upstream of the ReforMax® 330 for reforming the higher hydrocarbons. Additionally, ReforMax® 330 can also be used in the autothermal reforming of natural gas.
