  • Publication number: 20250154004
    Abstract: A method for converting natural gas and carbon dioxide into hydrogen and carbon monoxide using a Ni—Al2O3 catalyst. In one embodiment, the method includes using a dual-mode cyclic reactor. Moreover, the disclosed technology relates to a catalyst, its preparation method, and the process of converting natural gas with carbon dioxide to hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO). The catalyst is used in a cyclic reactor system process that contains two modes of operation (Mode I and Mode II) and two different feeds (Feed A and Feed B), one per mode of operation. Feed A can be a methane, or methane-rich stream. Feed B is specified to be a carbon dioxide, or carbon dioxide-rich stream.

  • Publication number: 20250154012
    Abstract: A method of processing a feedstock is provided. The method includes processing the feedstock including carbon dioxide and hydrogen by utilizing an electro-mechanical device to process the feedstock. The processing of feedstock can occur via reverse water gas shift reaction and/or a methanation reaction.

  • Publication number: 20240359977
    Abstract: A process is provided that can convert the available CO2 stream (from any captured source) and CH4 (or natural gas, or hydrocarbon gas) stream to separated streams of CO and H2. Multiple options exist for utilization. Synthesis gas can be integrated with an existing syngas facility or combined with H2 from an electrolyze to make methanol or FT synthesis to make liquid fuels. When operating the process with separated H2 and CO streams. These can be integrated into different chemical processes and not necessarily mixed together. For example, H2 can be sold as a product, and CO can be used as a feedstock to make chemicals. The present disclosure is a desirable add-on to an industrial facility to process CO2 emission into the value stream.
