Estado del arte sobre el proceso de producción de hidrógeno en un horno reformador a partir de gas natural y vapor (2010 – 2017)

Hydrogen has appeared in recent years as a clean fuel alternative, which can be used in electric generation engines and cells without causing emissions of greenhouse gases such as CO2; A cause of this, the production of high purity hydrogen is growing, and improvements in production technologies with a view to optimization of processes. In this paper, had made a review of conventional hydrogen production methods, which are conventionally done on a large scale by catalytic reforming of methane from natural gas; classifying and organizing the research in improvement of these processes, involving the design of their reactors, and the improvement in the catalyst used for the reactions to occur. Including studies that produce hydrogen on a small scale to couple it to in situ systems of generation, such as the microchannel reactors (or microreactors), that mark the future tendency in the production of hydrogen. Finally, is made a path on the hydrogen production process in the Cartagena Refinery, Ecopetrol S.A., proposing a future research in modeling a process for energy and environmental improvement.
