Abstract
The present invention relates to a steam reforming method of methanol for obtaining hydrogen gas and a system therefor. The present method and present system utilizes a heat transfer medium for regulating the temperature at each step of the process. By optimizing the flow so that the heat transfer medium circulate through the system as heat-exchanging with reactant at each step, temperature of the reactant is regulated at a desirable temperature for proceeding the reaction. Temperature of the decomposition process and the conversion process of methanol is independently regulated.
