Steam methane reformer is used to produce bulk hydrogen for industrial synthesis of ammonia and methanol. In steam methane reforming process, steam react with methane at high temperature of about 700˚C to 1000˚C to yield carbon monoxide and hydrogen. Adding hydrogen in the next stage at low temperat...
