The results of testing an individual disk-type membrane-catalytic module for the production of highpurity hydrogen from methane are analyzed by the method of mathematical modeling. It is shown that the used mathematical model adequately and at a good quality level describes the experimental data known from the literature. Based on the calculations, possible ways of increasing the productivity and efficiency of high-purity hydrogen extraction from methane in a disk-type membrane-catalytic device are proposed.
