The preferred fuel processing process for pure hydrogen production
in large scale is the SMR (Steam Methane Reforming) process. Worldwide
many large installations have been build and supply 24/7 hydrogen with
purities of at least 99,9 % in volumes between 10.000 and 1.000.000 Nm3
per hour. The reason for choosing steam reforming is that it offers the
highest yield of hydrogen. In small scale applications the chosen
technology was quite often CPO-reforming or ATR-reforming, because the
steam reforming didn't exist yet as a widely spread technology on
small-scale.
HyGear therefore developed its propriatory HISR®-technology. This Highly Integrated Steam Reforming technology offers the best of both worlds. The HISR®-technology
is an advanced form of steam reforming where the heat is directly fed
into the catalytic reactors with an efficient integrated heat exchanger.
HyGear's design excels through:
advanced burner technology
smart heat exchange design
efficient steam reforming reactor design
