hydrogen production,direct methane reforming reaction,hot spring gas
The gases associated with hot spring water often contain methane and carbon dioxide as major components, which are currently released into the atmosphere as greenhouse gases. Direct Methane Reforming Reaction (DMR) is different from the steam reforming reaction, which is the current common method for hydrogen production, in that it can directly decompose methane into hydrogen and solid carbon without producing carbon dioxide using a catalyst. In this study, hot spring gas was used as the feed gas, and the DMR activity was examined in the presence of carbon dioxide and other coexisting gases in the components.
