This SBIR Phase I research project is to demonstrate the feasibility of one-step co-production of carbon black and hydrogen (H2) at low cost. The process converts natural gas into carbon black and H2 in a high surface area, high heat transfer reactor and should have high yield and conversion compared with the conventional thermal processes. The process employs high thermal conducting (HTC) filled spouted bed to co-produce carbon black and H2 for industrial applications. Besides the low cost carbon black production, this technology will eliminate the complexity of many process used in conventional hydrogen production, such as steam reforming and gas shift reaction, as well as pressure swing adsorption. The proposed work will increase the hydrogen quality and reduce production cost. It can also be used for many other industrial applications where high purity hydrogen is required, such as fertilizer production, fine chemical syntheses and rocket fuels.

该SBIR一期研究项目旨在论证低成本一步联产炭黑和氢气(H2)的可行性。该工艺在高比表面积、高传热反应器中将天然气转化为炭黑和氢气，与传统的热法工艺相比，具有较高的产率和转化率。该工艺使用高导热系数(HTC)填充喷动床来联产工业用炭黑和氢气。除了低成本生产炭黑外，该技术还将消除传统氢气生产中使用的许多工艺的复杂性，如水蒸气重整、气体变换反应以及变压吸附。这项工作将提高氢气质量，降低生产成本。它还可用于许多其他需要高纯度氢气的工业应用，如化肥生产、精细化工合成和火箭燃料。
