This technology revolutionizes hydrogen production by using induction heating for catalytic methane decomposition, significantly increasing hydrogen yield.
This innovative approach employs induction heating to enhance the hydrogen production rate from methane decomposition. Unlike traditional furnace heating, which is limited by heat transfer and results in unwanted temperature gradients, induction heating directly raises the proprietary catalyst bed to the optimal reaction temperature. This method addresses the challenges of rapid catalytic deactivation and low activity that have hindered the commercialization of methane pyrolysis for hydrogen production.
