Abstract
Low emission hydrogen and blended natural gas production technologies are at the forefront of meeting NETZERO50 objectives to mitigate climate change. This paper demonstrates how a chemical flowsheet simulator DWSIM (DWSIM – The Open Source Chemical Process Simulator “Chemical Process Simulation for Everyone: DWSIM for Desktop is free and open-source”, [online] Available at: https://dwsim.org [accessed August 18,1922]) is used in evaluating the effectiveness of material conversion and optimal energy requirements for thermochemical processes involving light elements C and H which are at the heart of zero or low emission fuel generation from hydrocarbons. DWSIM simulator is very flexible in that the focus can be on a single piece of equipment like a reactor where one can rigorously assess equilibrium or kinetic conversions or a complex network of an entire manufacturing facility with multiple comparison scenarios to evaluate economics.
