The gas composition leaving the gasifier is determined by the operating conditions in the gasifier... The resulting H2/CO ratio of the gas is not suitable for subsequent methane synthesis. Therefore, a shift-conversion reaction... is necessary to adjust the H2/CO ratio.

Key term(s)
  • hydrogen-carbon monoxide ratio

French

Domaine(s)
  • Génie chimique
  • Gazogènes
CONT

Cependant, le gaz brut provenant de la gazéification ne peut pas être utilisé directement pour la synthèse. Il doit d'abord subir une épuration poussée pour ne pas contenir de composés susceptibles d'empoisonner les catalyseurs, et le rapport H2/CO doit être ajusté.

Key term(s)
  • rapport hydrogène-oxyde de carbone
