Abstract
ZoneFlow Reactor Technologies LLC (ZFRT) has developed proprietary, radically innovative structured catalyst solutions for steam reforming, pre-reforming and recuperative reforming. ZoneFlow (ZF) reactors provide higher heat transfer, lower pressure drop, higher geometric surface area, more uniform flow and heat distribution, and long-term structural integrity compared to the current state-of-the-art pellet catalyst. The use of ZF reactors enables significant capital and operating cost reduction in steam reforming both for new plants as well as revamps. S. Ratan of ZFRT and Prof. J. De Wilde of UCL, Belgium discuss the current status of the technology.
