Abstract
Understanding catalytic methane decomposition: a swift and cost-effective energy decarbonization pathway Professor Adélio Mendes from the University of Porto – Faculty of Engineering coordinates the Horizon-funded project “112CO2 – Low temperature catalytic methane decomposition for COx-free hydrogen production” A game-changer low temperature catalytic methane decomposition process proved already >2500 h of continuous operation at 550°C with a constant catalyst productivity of 0.64 gH2/gCat/h. But the experiment is going on, aiming at reaching over 6000 h of fully stable operation, by September 2023; at that moment the technology will reach the stability milestone for becoming a commercial solution. The methane decomposition membrane reactor operates between 550°C and 700°C producing pure hydrogen, according to the reaction equation:
