Description
Advances in Synthesis Gas: Methods, Technologies and Applications: Syngas Process Modelling and Apparatus Simulation consists of numerical modeling and simulation of different processes and apparatus for producing syngas, purifying it as well as synthesizing different chemical materials or generating heat and energy from syngas. These apparatus and processes include, but are not limited to, reforming, gasification, partial oxidation, swing technologies and  membranes.

Key Features

  • Introduces numerical modeling and the simulation of syngas production processes and apparatus
  • Describes numerical models and simulation procedures utilized for syngas purification processes and equipment
  • Discusses modelling and simulation of processes using syngas as a source for producing chemicals and power
