    Abstract: A hydrogen manufacturing apparatus is equipped with a plate type high-temperature shift converter (II) which has a shift reaction chamber (7) which is filled with a high-temperature shift catalyst (8) and into which a reformed gas is introduced, a cooling chamber (9) which is filled with a filler (10) for promoting heat transfer and into which a cooling gas is introduced, and a partition (6) for separating the shift reaction chamber and the cooling chamber. The shift reaction chamber has a hydrogen gas chamber (11) separated by a plate type partition (12), and the partition is composed of a porous plate (14) and a hydrogen permeable film (13) which is coated or plated thereon and which lets only hydrogen gas permeate therethrough. Thus only hydrogen generated in the shift reaction chamber permeates the hydrogen permeable film into the hydrogen gas chamber. In another embodiment, the apparatus has a plate type reformer (I) having a reforming chamber (1) which is filled with a reformed catalyst (2) and into which natural gas is introduced to reform it, a heating chamber (3) which is filled with a filler (4) for promoting heat transfer and into which a combustion gas is introduced, and a partition (5) which separates said reforming chamber and said heating chamber. The reforming chamber has a hydrogen gas chamber (11) separated by a plate type partition (12); and the partition is composed of a porous plate (14) and a hydrogen permeable film (13).

    Abstract: A high temperature membrane reactor or gas purification apparatus includes a housing containing a gas heating chamber and a gas extraction component, preferably one or more tubular membranes. The preferred application is for extracting hydrogen from a mixed gas flow or for generating hydrogen, e.g., by reforming methanol, ethanol, or gasoline. A surrounding annulus provides heat exchange and insulation by circulating the mixed gas flow about the housing and then injecting the mixed gas flow into the housing for extraction or reaction. The apparatus further includes an outlet for releasing raffinate preferably including a flow controlling restriction. Heating is provided by conducting the raffinate from the gas extraction component to the heating chamber wherein reaction with a catalyst generates heat. These features, alone or in combination, provide better energy management, better flow management, and better safety than current designs. A spring-type support for the membrane is further described which increases the maximum useable operation pressure of the membranes to take better advantage of the membrane reactor and gas purification features.

    Abstract: A hollow fiber contactor and process for fluid treatment having forced circulation with entry of fluid to be treated through the open ended lumen of a porous input hollow fiber having its opposite end closed and exit of treated fluid through the open ended lumen of an adjacent or nearby porous output hollow fiber having its opposite end closed. Fluid to be treated passes through the porous wall of an input hollow fiber, passes in contact with a treatment medium between the input and output hollow fibers forming treated fluid which passes through the porous wall of an output hollow fiber and exits the process. This invention provides high contact with treatment medium between the hollow fibers, especially suitable for selective sorption for gas purification or separation and for conduct of catalytic reactions.
