In this work, the process intensification has been applied through simultaneous heat and mass transfer. A new multifunctional reactor for the co-production of hydrogen and aniline has been proposed. The heat required for the endothermic process (glycerol steam reforming) is provided by the exothermic process (hydrogenation of nitrobenzene to aniline). Additionally, all the required hydrogen for the aniline manufacture process is provided by a portion of the obtained hydrogen from the glycerol steam reforming via the membrane side. The achieved results of the glycerol steam reforming process have been compared with the conventional data. Acceptable improvement can be seen in the performance of the reformer, in which the conversion of glycerol and yield of hydrogen have improved by around 32% and 6.5%, respectively. Also, the conversion of nitrobenzene displays an adequate number of 81.74%. Furthermore, a parametric analysis is accomplished to evaluate the performance of the reactors. Finally, the order of locations in the offered configuration has been reversed to investigate its effect on the simulation. The arrangement manipulation contributed to increasing the conversion of glycerol from 53.28% to 56.96 %, hydrogen yield from 4.83 to 4.89, and around 2.71% reduction of nitrobenzene conversion.
