ReCatalyx H2Recover

Overview

A hydrogen recovery package for a compatible hydrogen bearing gas stream. A qualified membrane or pressure swing adsorption system separates product hydrogen from other gases, with upstream cleanup as necessary. Conversion of biomass syngas into additional hydrogen requires a separately licensed water gas shift and conditioning section.

Product capabilities

• Feed separator and filters
• compressor
• optional contaminant cleanup
• optional shift reactor
• membrane or PSA skid
• product analyzer

Feedstock and input

Characterized hydrogen rich offgas or suitably treated syngas; confirm all contaminants and product purity requirements.

Core components

• Feed separator and filters
• compressor
• optional contaminant cleanup
• optional shift reactor
• membrane or PSA skid
• product analyzer
• buffer and metering
• tail gas recovery or disposal connection
• relief and isolation
• gas detection and PLC

Process

Characterize gas; remove interfering contaminants; separate hydrogen; verify product; manage tail gas.

Design basis

Determine purity versus recovery tradeoff, feed pressure, contaminant limits, tail gas energy and buyer specification.

IoT measurements

Syngas quality, PSA cycles, hydrogen purity and flow, pressure and tail-gas disposition.

IoT architecture

Local PLC/HMI, buffered historian and secure gateway; remote alarms and reports. Cloud loss does not stop local control. See common architecture and acceptance tests.

Future capability

Monitor adsorption or membrane performance and detect analyzer or cycle drift.

Typical applications

U.S. refineries, chemicals plants and renewable syngas developers; global industrial gas recovery duties.

Pilot validation

Verify recovery and purity under feed variability, full tail gas balance, containment and validated controls. Recovery alone does not establish low carbon status.

Problem and deployment scope

Hydrogen and power to fuels

How it works

• Feed separator and filters
• compressor
• optional contaminant cleanup
• optional shift reactor
• membrane or PSA skid
• product analyzer

Architecture

Confirm data sources, field interfaces and operating requirements during discovery. Integration compatibility is reviewed for each deployment.

Integrations

Interface availability and supported protocols require product-specific confirmation.

Deployment

Scope, installation, security, acceptance criteria and training are agreed with the project team.

Use cases

U.S. refineries, chemicals plants and renewable syngas developers; global industrial gas recovery duties.
