  • Syn-gas system for generating power and hydrogen
    Patent number: 11155463
    Abstract: A power generation system that includes a membrane reformer assembly, wherein syngas is formed from a steam reforming reaction of natural gas and steam, and wherein hydrogen is separated from the syngas via a hydrogen-permeable membrane, a combustor for an oxy-combustion of a fuel, an expander to generate power, and an ion transport membrane assembly, wherein oxygen is separated from an oxygen-containing stream to be combusted in the combustor. Various embodiments of the power generation system and a process for generating power using the same are provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 4, 2019
    Date of Patent: October 26, 2021
    Assignee: KING FAHD UNIVERSITY OF PETROLEUM AND MINERALS
