Optimizing the Steam to Carbon Ratio

Extend catalyst life, improve energy efficiency and increase safety

Changing feed gas quality for blue hydrogen production alters the optimal steam-to-carbon (S/C) ratio in the reformer reactor. Measuring the SMR feed with Micro Motion mass flow meters allows closer operation to the target S/C molar ratio since the mass ratio aligns more closely with the molar ratio than the volumetric ratio does. Targeting the optimal S/C ratio extends the catalyst life and cuts energy costs.
