Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a process for the conversion of organic material to methane rich gas. In particular, the process comprises heating vaporized organic material in the presence of an excess amount of hydrogen gas and superheated steam to produce a methane rich fuel gas at pressures greater than 0 atmospheres gauge up to about 2 atmosphere gauge.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a process for the conversion of organic material to methane rich gas. The process comprises: a) vaporising organic material in a chamber free of oxygen and mixing it with an excess amount of hydrogen gas at 450 degrees C to 650 degrees C to form a mixture. b) heating this mixture to 600 degrees C to 900 degrees C in the presence of hydrogen gas and superheated steam to form a gaseous mixture comprising methane, hydrogen and acid. c) neutralising the gaseous mixture with a base. The process may optionally proceed with a metal catalyst and occur at a process between 0 and 2 atmospheres of pressure. (FIG. 3).
