Steady State Simulation of the Steam Methane Reforming Reactor in Fanavaran Petrochemical Company

Syngas is the mixture of H2 and CO by different ratio. According to extensive application of ʹthis mixture in various industries such as chemical, petrochemical and converting natural gas to liquid hydrocarbon technology (GTL), it is important to know thermo-kinetic and treatment of the process to produce required mixture of syngas for downstream industries. Steam methane reforming of natural gas is one of the main methods for producing of syngas. In this paper catalytic reaction during the process has been studied by using mass, energy and momentum balance. By the use of this simulation model that designed by visual basic software that involving accurate kinetic model, we can study the effective parameters for cost reduction, surveying the reaction in different thermodynamic and processing conditions and then predict the reaction products to achieve appropriate composition in output of the reactor on changing the operation conditions.
