Abstract: A non-autothermal adiabatic reactor is described, including a reactor vessel defining an interior volume therein for adiabatic reaction, an inlet assembly including one or more inlets arranged to introduce reactant(s) to the interior volume of the reactor vessel, a foam material body having a conversion catalyst thereon and/or therein, positioned in the interior volume of the reactor vessel for contacting thereof by the reactant(s) introduced to the interior volume, and an outlet arranged to discharge reaction product(s) from the reactor vessel. The non-autothermal adiabatic reactor is advantageously used to produce hydrogen from an ethanol or other hydrocarbon feedstock.

Abstract: A process and system for generating hydrogen gas are described, in which water is electrolyzed to generate hydrogen and oxygen, and a feedstock including oxygenate(s) and/or hydrocarbon(s), is non-autothermally catalytically oxidatively reformed with oxygen to generate hydrogen. The hydrogen generation system in a specific implementation includes an electrolyzer arranged to receive water and to generate hydrogen and oxygen therefrom, and a non-autothermal segmented adiabatic reactor containing non-autothermal oxidative reforming catalyst, arranged to receive the feedstock, water, and electrolyzer-generated oxygen, for non-autothermal catalytic oxidative reforming reaction to produce hydrogen. The hydrogen generation process and system are particularly advantageous for using bioethanol to produce green hydrogen.
