EReTech will develop and validate a transformative electrically heated reactor together with the tailored catalyst for steam methane reforming.
Based on SYPOX technology the reactor hosts ceramic supported structured catalyst, electrically heated by internal direct resistive heating elements. This achieves an energy efficiency close to 95% and a reactor volume that is two orders-of-magnitude smaller.
EReTech final goal is to offer solutions for the decentralized market and for the decarbonization of existing or new centralized reforming plants.
