Abstract

Experiments on hydrogen production by spark plasma of dimethyl ether (DME) were carried out at 1 atm using a multistage spark plasma system. The H₂ yield initially increased and then decreased with increasing pulse duty ratio. Increasing stage number enhanced hydrogen yield. The converter with three stages was desirable for higher H₂ yield, while that with single stage was desirable for low energy consumption. DME conversion rate and H₂ yield were enhanced when heat preservation configuration was employed. Energy consumption was much lower than standard situation at each discharge frequency. The possibility of combining the converter with an automotive exhaust system to fully use the exhaust heat of traditional engines while reducing emissions was highlighted. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the 2011 AIChE Spring Meeting & 7th Global Congress on Process Safety (Chicago, IL 3/13-17/2011).
