ABSTRACT

The reactor temperatures vary from 1095°C to 1490°C (2000-2700°F), ·while pressures can vary from approximately atmospheric pressure to approximately 2000 psi (13,790 kPa). The process has the capability of producing high purity hydrogen, the extent of the purification procedure depends upon the use to which the hydrogen is to be

For example, carbon dioxide can be removed by scrubbing with various alkaline reagents, and carbon monoxide can be removed washing with liquid nitrogen; if nitro-
