METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRODUCTION OF HYDROGEN Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC C01B3/38 C10K3/02 

FIELD: chemical industry; methods and devices for production of molecular hydrogen.

SUBSTANCE: the invention is pertaining to the field of chemical industry, in particular, to the method and the apparatus for production of molecular hydrogen. The apparatus represents essentially the closed reactor, operation of which is not accompanied with the harmful outbursts and the pollution of atmosphere. The reactor has the first and second reaction chambers, in which at essentially different temperatures there is the same pressure. To increase the amount and to improve the purity of the produced hydrogen the reactor is supplied with the separator of the reaction products. The method includes the conversion of highly inflammable material in the reactor having the first and second chambers with utilization of the separator of the reaction products. In the reactionary layer of the first chamber conduct the response of conversion with production of hydrogen and at least one by-product, and also the reaction of interaction between the by-product and the separator of reaction products, and then transfer the separator of the reaction products into the reactionary layer of the second chamber, which is located above the reactionary layer of the first chamber. The invention ensures the increased amount and purity of the produced hydrogen.

EFFECT: the invention ensures the increased amount and purity of the produced hydrogen.
