Methane steam reforming produces hydrogen but faces challenges with CO₂ separation. Adsorption-enhanced reforming reduces energy consumption and increases hydrogen purity. Key adsorbents, including CaO-based and lithium salts, each have advantages and challenges. Wantech's innovations provide efficient solutions for this process.

In August 2024, the FeMo catalyst Syamcat JQ116 successfully passed a single tube evaluation requested by a Russian customer. After seven days of continuous testing, the evaluation report indicated excellent performance in the production process, with the target output exceeding expectations. The positive results were highly appreciated by the customer, leading to a prompt decision to sign the contract.

Syamcat Z317/Z318 steam reforming catalysts play a critical role in refinery hydrogen production units. In April 2024, Syamcat provided on-site technical services for catalyst loading in a 20,000 Nm³/h hydrogen unit, ensuring optimal performance and receiving high praise from the end user for their professional service.

In June 2024, Syamcat strengthened its partnership with Pakistan.They advanced rocket fuel booster catalyst projects with the Pakistan Institute and prepared proposals for bids with a Russian trading partner.

In June 2024, Syamcat strengthened its partnership with Russian adsorbent suppliers and developed market strategies. They won a ZnO desulfurization catalyst bid and plan local production in Russia. Syamcat completed catalyst reloading with Gazpromneft and will discuss future ammonia plant needs.

In mid-July 2024, Syamcat and a Russian partner discussed the bulk purchase of CCR catalyst carriers after successful tests, focusing on recent performance improvements. They also explored high-temperature shift and steam reforming catalysts for hydrogen production. Future collaboration will include syngas and technology process projects.

By integrating CO2 adsorption, it enhances hydrogen purity and lowers energy use. With advanced Ni-based catalysts and efficient adsorbents like CaO and lithium salts, it sets new eco-friendly standards, reducing emissions and improving efficiency markedly.

Syamcat has recently introduced its groundbreaking SYAMCAT Z428Q and Z429Q catalysts, which have set a new benchmark in the industrial gas production sector with their exceptional steam reforming activity. These catalysts are specifically engineered for the steam reforming process, enabling the efficient production of critical industrial gases such as hydrogen, ammonia synthesis gas, and methanol synthesis gas.

For steam reforming, noble metal catalysts show high activity due to strong methane activation and hydrogen evolution abilities, but their high cost hinders industrial-scale use. Among non-noble metal catalysts, Ni, Co, and Fe are key components, ranked in activity as Ni > Co > Fe. Nickel-based catalysts, with their comparable activity to noble metals and much lower cost, are especially promising for industrial applications.

The generation of high-temperature water vapor or hydrogen prompts the conversion of most sulfur compounds to H2S, which subsequently adsorbs onto active sites, resulting in catalyst poisoning.

In the realm of steam reforming catalysts, SYAMCAT's research team has achieved a significant breakthrough with the successful development of the SYAMCAT Z433/Z434 series.

SYAMCAT Z433/SYAMCAT Z434 steam reforming catalysts have outstanding advantages in anti-coking performance, injecting new impetus into the sustainable development of the synthesis gas industry.

In methane steam reforming reactions, catalyst deactivation primarily occurs due to three factors: poisoning deactivation, coking deactivation, and sintering deactivation.
