Dynamic Simulation of Breakthrough Curves on Multilayered Beds for Hydrogen Purification from Syngas Mixtures

Abstract

This paper modeled the behavior of a double-layer adsorption column to process a current with a Syngas-like composition. The modeling was performed on Aspen Adsorption software to evaluate its performance by comparison with experimental data found in the literature. The simulation aims is to evaluate the modeled system for potential use in PSA systems for hydrogen purification from a Syngas stream, with successive simulations on different plant scales.
