MTR VaporSep-H2 - Syngas Ratio Adjustment Using Membranes
Syngas (H2 + CO) is required to make a variety of products. Each of these syngas derivatives has a specific ratio of H2 to CO in the feed syngas that is optimal for its production. However, the H2:CO ratio produced is a function of the syngas process and the hydrocarbon feed. This ratio will not necessarily be optimal for downstream products. Therefore, some method for reducing the amount of hydrogen in the syngas is needed.
