Research Abstract |
A high energy efficient process in a plasma-catalyst reaction field has been developed in order to produce hydrogen gas without carbon dioxide emission to the atmosphere.An inverter plasma with a high electrical efficiency and chemical catalysts for depositioning carbons in a lower temperature were employed for improving process energy efficiencies. From the experimental results, the process energy efficiency values were evaluated for the plasma discharge parameter settings and the catalyst reaction conditions. Then, the characteristics of the methane reforming plasma process with the catalyst of superfine Fe particles were elucidated and useful modified measurement methods for monitoring the developed process reaction were also demonstrated.
