2025 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Fuel Processing for Hydrogen Production: System Analysis

This symposium will focus on advances in fuel processing for hydrogen production. It will cover the effective utilization/conversion of fuels such as natural gas, plastics, MSW, coal, alcohols, biomass etc. and the technology development for reactor design, system integration, and process economics. Topics of interest will include, but are not limited to the following:
