Large Scale Hydrogen Production: Update Comprehensive Modelling and Simulation

There are so many large scale hydrogen production units all over the world. The pure hydrogen is produced for several applications, typically hydrocracking process. A comprehensive Modeling and simulation of an industrial hydrogen production unit are presented here by the up to date models. At first, all sub-units including reformer reactor, shift converters, Amine package, and methanator reactor mathematically are modeled; then the effect of some important parameters on product is investigated. Each parameter such as temperature, pressure and CO2 injection has a different effect on the sub units.
