Modeling Ekona’s H2 production and carbon capture process

Ekona Power Inc is developing a technology to convert natural gas into H2, electricity and a pure CO2 stream. The CO2 stream will them be removed using underground carbon sequestration. Their approach uses two processes. The first uses pyrolysis to convert natural gas to hydrogen and solid carbon. The second uses a fuel cell to […]

Modeling the Ekona’s natural gas pyrolysis pulse reactor for the coproduction of blue hydrogen and carbon nanoparticles

A carbon growth model will be incorporated into Ekona’s reactor and process model and validated against experimental results. The resulting simulation model will be used to inform future reactor designs, specify balance of plant components, and optimize performance. The model will be capable of describing methane pyrolysis, estimating H2 production yield, and predicting the amount […]
