Abstract
An entropy production and efficiency analysis of the first reaction in the General Atomic sulfur-iodine thermochemical hydrogen production cycle has been carried out by simulating the reaction including the mixing of reactants and separation of the resulting phases. The reaction: ▪ was simulated at 388 K, which is slightly above the melting point of I 2. Analysis of only this reaction shows that the reaction should be run at 15–25% I 2 reacted and the greatest excess of H 2O which will produce two product phases. Actual operating conditions are however dependent on the total processing scheme. An entropy production and efficiency analysis along with economic factors for the entire process is necessary to obtain these conditions.
